It has been raining everyday every pass 4 o'clock but in mornings and afternoons, it is always sunny and breezy winds blowing make it incredibly fun take pictures! Woohoo!


 




I know, I know. What would a visit to my blog would mean without an overexposure picture, right? So here's one. 
 I'm super generous like Oprah. Anyone miss her show as much as I do?



I would like to use this opportunity to pick up awards (from 2 weeks ago.. Oops! I am terrible at this kind of stuff)





The Versatile Blogger, Blogger Luxury, and Stylish Blogger award are all from the ever so kind Chyrel from The Fiction I Live

One Lovely Blog Award is from Chyrel and Molly from Miss Influenced

4. I am super sleepy at the moment. Thanks to 5 hours of sleep last night. *yawn*
5. I love my life. Sometimes I wonder how did I get to be so blessed with an awesome family, a healthy body and mind, and such a cute puppy. Woof!
6. I also love to dance! Ready? Set. Go! (wait, that sounds more like a race.. Hmm..)
7. I am so grateful this is the last one cause I spent like 15 minutes to write these 6 points...

How was the weekend, dolls?
Mine was super slow and mellow. But I don't mind! Weekdays are always busy so I like a relaxing-doing-nothing weekend.

I have been dying to show you my new wedges but it is weird to wear this wedges to courses or bible study as everyone only dress up in jeans and t-shirt and well.. flats or converse. Hence, today is the day! I am going out with my mom and my sister for lunch and... it is lunch-worthy shoes. Yes?

I just love the shape and the prints and for a Rp 200,000 (US $20) it is a steal! Most wedges I like range in Rp 400,000 therefore when I saw this cutie in Bloop Endorse online store, I, without any hesitation (or knowing how much money I had left) order one.








Although it is rather challenging to style it! 
I can't figure out anything else rather than green, pink, white, and chocolate color when I look at these shoes. Thoughts?
How was your Friday the 13th, bloggers? 

I was so prepared for unfortunate events to come. My 1st unfortunate event was I had to wait for an hour for a facial. The appointment was at 9 but the lady who usually give me my facial was late. Oh well.. I get to play make up with all the tools provided by Shisheido! Yeay! So I guess that turned out to be okay..

2nd unfortunate event was when I was about to send my giveaway package. I went to 2 post offices and both are closed. Also, both won't be open until Monday. Today, I tried my luck and went to another post office and it was open! Yeay! So I was successfully sent my packege. Mission completed!


I got this almost-blazer-like cardigan a week ago. I never get around to wear them for some reason. Now I couldn't understand why! The fabric is light and the color is just pretty.



 


My mom thinks I'm crazy pairing the cardigan with this skirt. 
Mother darling, it's called being unpredictable!



Have a peachy weekend everyone!
And yes, let's eat peaches for the whole weekend!
My outfit today is hardly post worthy.. Just jeans and top. But I can't wait to test out my new lens. Yeay!
So I spent almost my entire monthly salary.. Expect a lot of around the house posts! (since I wouldn't have any money to go hang out. How sad. But still.. Yeay new lens!).








I know I supposed to anounced the winner of the giveaway on Thursday but I'm too excited. Sue me.
The winner is...


Shatirah from Shatirah D-Station! 
Congratulations! I'll contact you soon!

THANK YOU SO MUCH for everyone who has participated! 
I truly appriciate it!

 

Here is the seal provided by RandomPicker to convinced all of you that the decision is legit :)
Weekend was well spent. My Saturday night was accompanied by re-run of American Idol (yeay Lauren is still in!) and cookies with milk. How very glamorous, right? But before I spent my night as a complete boring grandmother, I went to a launching of a new product from Maicih (it's a brand of snack here in Indonesia).

Although I am not a big fan of the snack itself (it's super spicy it will literally burn your mouth!), I went there as a plus-one for my sister. We didn't stay long and when we were waiting for our car to come and pick us up, two girls approached us and asked if it was okay to take our pic. They were doing their photography class assignment and wanted us to model while showing the gift bag. It was so cute and a little bit flattering. Yes? No? Did you get approach like that alot?

  




I love this skirt. The roses details are amazing!


It's Monday morning and I have 3 hours of traffic jam to conquer.
Have you enter my giveaway?
Good day, lovely bloggers! 
How is weekend treating you? I'm having a major headache.. I guess I am not allowed to wear contacts anymore! How sad.. 
Meanwhile I love wearing glasses ( it does make you look smarter!), sometimes the glasses hurts my nose and I get red marks and it gets itchy.. Hmm.. Maybe it's time to get contacts with cylinder prescription..

I took the pictures in the morning. And everything looks blurry. And also a little bit overexposure. Lousy photographer of me. The headache was getting worse therefore instead taking more pictures, I went home..
It doesn't look so bad.. Sort of dreamy?

Perhaps I really should  follow my friend's footsteps and get a photography course!
This lovely vintage dress is from an online store and it's secondhand! This lovely piece only costs me Rp 50.000 (around $5). I feel very Sunday-service-time in this outfit.
 

I hope you enjoy your weekend! (and the awesome blurry pics)

Don't forget to enter my giveaway!
Happy birthday to my dearest blog! I can't believe it has been a year..

I am feeling a little bit nostalgic. Do bear with me!

Do you have any new ideas for my blog?
Would you like other post besides outfit post?
Perhaps a new section? I'm thinking a new section featuring pictures taken from my Holga..
Are you interested in that?

My sister has been loving the nude color lately so I thought she would like my outfit but I got "what on earth are you wearing" look from her when I show up with this outfit. I love her.

The weather has been indecisive lately. When I dressed up, it was so cold I had a runny nose. Two hours later, it was so hot that I was sweating like crazy when I took these pictures. Mr. Weather, please make up your mind! 

It's May already. My.. Time flies!   
My blog will be celebrating it's 1st birthday this Thursday. I'll be holding a giveaway.
I am still unsure as I should make it international or just local..








I just uploaded May Collection! Check it out!
