crop top - Look Boutique// culottes - Helo Strangers
earrings & necklace - Believe Accesories
rockstud bracelet - Valentino // watch - Daniel Wellington
MAB mini tote - Rebecca Minkoff // ankle strap sandal - Zara

Yes this culottes pants are still trending! I'm trying the midi one after my first taste with the short version (read it here) and I am loving it. This kind of pants have those vintage flair but still feel sophisticated and current at the same time. I like pairing this pants with crop top somehow. I guess it's to make sure that you'll have a defined waist making it look balance with the loose and wide at the bottom.

TGIF, folks!
Just popping in with this preppy look to announce my 5th Blogiversary Giveaway winner 

Agnes Adelia

Congratulations, Agnes. I will email you real soon with the voucher code.

Have a happy weekend, all!

I don't think I could ever end my affair with anything floral printed. I'm such a girly girl and this print really resonate with my style and personality. Even when I go all plain last weekend, with a solid top and a black pants, I couldn't help but to add a floral necklace! This print is definitely staying in my style book :)

My giveaway just ended so thank you for everyone who participated! I will announce the winner on Friday.


Outfit : all by Helo Strangers (instagram @helostrangers) except for Michael Michael Kors watch and Zara blocked sandals.
black top -  Massimo Dutti// necklace - Diva
ripped jeans - Factor// heels - Zara
MAC bag - Rebecca Minkoff// watch - Michael Kors

Jeans can be daunting for chunky girls like me! I very rarely wear jeans for my blog photos but decided to man up and post these set of pics. To be confident when wearing skinny ripped jeans, you just need a long top that hits just above the start of your thight. It camouflage your big hip. Make sure you wear high heels since it helps create a taller and hence slimmer illusion. I like open toe sandals with ankle straps because it shows some skin to balance all that you cover on the above. Add an edgy bag like my beloved Rebecca Minkoff MAC and you're good to go!



Seorae opened in Bandung a mere three weeks ago and yet their service deserves two thumbs up! I was expecting slow service but all the waiter/waitresses were quick on their feet and has vast knowledge about all the menus. They had great attitude as well considering the hectic dinner hour. We went there on a Sunday and hence we had 10 people waiting list but we determined to try out this place. We waited for about 45 mins. Food came out rather fast tho and since service was excellent, we had a pleasant visit here! (Visited again on a Thursday night around 6 PM. No waiting list. 7 PM people started to come and WL was needed)

Attended Liebeskind Store Opening yesterday at Paris van Java. It was my very first store opening event so I was quite excited! Thank you Urban Icon Store for having me :)
Liebeskind provides leather handbags and other small leather goods with reasonable prices too! The crowds were very enthusiastic as well. I heard there were fights to get the most wanted bags. People lined up on the cashier in very short time.

My blog is turning five years old!
I still can't believe I have been blogging for five full years. It's not exactly the most productive thing to do but I guess my love for writing has got me going and going and now this little internet space of mine is five years old. After 5 years, 595++ posts, and 252,000++ pageviews later, I still like blogging. I don't LOVE it anymore but I just can't seem go on very long without writing something here :-)


Thank you for everyone who visited my blog either you an old-time reader (gosh, those first few posts make me cringe! but I refuse to delete them as a lesson) or a first-timer here in the blog. As my gratitude, I'm giving away an $80 shopping voucher from Sachlirene. I absolutely love their shoes. My Olivia Pumps have been with me pretty much on every special ocassion. Olivia is comfy and light and those red details just set it apart from your usual black heels. 

The giveaway ends at Wednesday, May 20th 2015 12.00 AM +7GMT (Jakarta time). Winner will be announced Friday, May 22nd 2015. You only need an instagram account to be eligible for this giveaway! Click Read More for joining and my personal favorite beauties from Sachlirene.
Pungopang Taro (38k)
Coconut Island Dark Choco (45k)

After Mottomoo we decided to visit another recently opened dessert place called Pungopang. Appearantly, it's an authentic Korean dessert. Place was actually quite spacious and I do love the beach-y cheerful interior with plenty of orange and yellow colors. The boat shaped seats are also adorable. Perfect for hangout with friends and family :)
tied top - HeloStrangers // necklace - Saint Peters
bracelet - Salvatore Ferragamo // watch - Michael Kors
skirt - Atmosphere // bag - Fendi Petit 2Jours

Mottomoo Hamburg located in Pantai Indah Kapuk area is a Japanese restaurant that put emphasizes on obviously, hamburgs. I do love hamburgs but not sure how it will taste with Japanese spin. As it turns out, I quite love it! Granted,, if I was feeling a bit nauseous, I would probably will not go with this one tho. However, all of our food came out rather fast and they all tastes pretty good :)
