Little black dress goes way back to 1920s. That time, black dresses were reserved for funerals and mourning widows. Now though, it has become one of the most versatile piece a girl could own. Audrey Hepburn was responsible for making this item a coveted piece for every woman in the world. It exudes elegance and sophistiaction. I have a little black dress with lace details from Zara which super useful but more suiting in a night time or formal occassion. Hence, I was so happy to find a fun detail like bow on this dress. The bow still maintaining the elegance, but gives a rather youthful vibe. Making it perfect to be wear in daytime.

It's midweek and I hope all of you is having a good week so far. 

P.S. Pics were taken at Changi Airport, Singapore.

Hello, hello. How is everyone in blogsphere?
If you have been reading my blog before three months ago, you'll realized that my style has changed a little bit. As well as the header and a tweak here and there in the layout. To be honest, my style hasn't really change. When I'm not trotting around in vintage and thrifted gems, several posts before is my usual get up.


As much as I love dressing up like I just stepped out of a time machine, I truly believe change is good. I grew up. And I believe as the insides grew, the outside must reflects the same. I know this change might not please some people since appearently I become notorious with my vintage style (in my defense, I wasn't really THAT vintage). I also know I will dissapoint some people who followed my journey because of their love of vintage and thus find a red thread in that. I want to say I'm sorry but not really. As I said before, I believe change is good.


Do believe me when I say that I don't change the content of this blog because of some external force. The main reason is really from my heart. I just feel like my posts might gives fault impression that I'm some kind of old-school-romantic soul (I truly hope I am! and might be just a little bit) when actually I'm more of a in-your-face-honest and sometimes-silly with a-lot-of-seriousness mix in this short physique. 


And I also know that I have grown since the first time I started this blog. I'm no longer broody and I definitely no longer listening to dark emo songs anymore. Now I'm more of Top 40 songs. Which doesn't really make you think about what good are you doing in this world. I know I must take things step by step now. And if that make me shallow, let it be. All I know is I'm so much happier. I feel strong with more confidence that you can only get with age. 


Staying true to yourself is one of the most important thing in blogging. It's how the reader connects with you. I'm not saying that vintage wasn't my real style. It was. And I know it still is, somewhere special in my heart. I believe I will revisit my glory days of vintage styling in the near future. And although it might not be in every post, I'll make sure it will be a good one.


When things are good, people hope for the state to remain the same. Why not? Things are good, right? But when people stay the same, it's when you start to die. When you stop growing, stop changing, stop taking risks, that is a dangerous time. Because that is the time when you stop living. My hope is for all of us to stay being kind in this ever-changing life.

This little happy corner of mine will continue be updated with my strange musings, my love of fashion, my obsession with coffee as well as nice food, and last but not the least with my life adventures. I know I haven't been a very outspoken writer about my life lately. Things are going good and I make sure I'll update you with the major events. Thank you for staying with The Sweetest Escape for all this time. I appreciate every single comment and will try my very best to get back to you.

Wishing all of you a very happy weekend.

P.S. Pics were taken at Chinese Garden, Jurong, Singapore

Here in Indonesia we don't exactly have a fall or winter season. We only have sunny with no rain.. Or rain with some sunny weather. The background is actually super green but thanks to Adobe, I edited the colors and make the whole atmosphere of these set of pics more fall/winter worthy.

FrontRow Shop was so kind to send me this gorgeous digital floral printed skirt. The print can easily transitions into winter thanks to the grey, black, and white colors. I have a strange affair with fall/winter florals. I think they have such an old-school romantic impression!

I love the modest length of this skirt. I usually wear everything above the knees but this time, it hits just a little bit below the knees. Giving this skirt a more formal/office atire vibe. I chose a bunny shaped cocktail ring for a dash of whimsy. And I make sure my shoes option is fun and youthful instead of the usual pointy pumps to compensate with such mature top and skirt. It's all in the balance.

Wishing all of you a nice midweek! I am going to Jakarta tomorrow for a medical check-up and I always super nervous everytime I visit any doctors, so please send me your positive prayers :)

 Hello, hello.
As promised. My Singapore photo-diary. I was actually contemplating whether I should do another photo diary or not because what I did in Singapore was nothing special in particular... And pretty much what I do everytime I go there. But I have plenty of pics so why not share them with some info, right? :)



We stayed at Orchard Hotel. It was at the last day of F1 so we actually had to wait for 90 minutes to get our room. Luckily, Johnathan (the person behind the check-in desk) was so kind. He gave us a pool side view and a free wi-fi throughout our entire stay. Thank you, Johnathan!




As usual, we get our dinner fix at Botak Jones located in Youth Park. Right across Orchard Cineleisure. It has been some kind of ritual for some time now...


A little shoe-shopping at Orchard Cineleisure.. Seriously, they have the BEST shoes. Jeffrey Campbell, Doc Martens, you name it. Also visit The Editor's Market for affordable cutting edge pieces.



Singapore Botanical Garden was as gorgeous and as lovely as usual. Somehow I always stopped at The Swan Lake. Sit. Enjoy. And then I was back in the hectic city. I guess I'm not much of a romantic.



A short and sweet stop at the Bakerzin of Vivo City.






We went to Esplanade Mall to watch the Laser Show of Marina Bay Sands. It was a quite magnificent sight. Laser Show is every 8PM.. I'm guessing every night. We also visited Merlion Park obviously. Since those two are super close. And then we went back to Orchard Road for some late night mall sight-seeing.






The next day, we went to IMM Jurong to see some discounted branded items. Which resulted nothing. Well not really. I did bought a black top at G2000 and a top and a skirt at Cotton On. The price is definitely reduced a lot. Which makes me happy. We had lunch there and then we went to Chinese & Japanese Garden. We couldn't get in to Chinese Garden because there was a graduation. And we didn't check out Japanese Garden because my mom was too tired. She gets tired real quick if there's no shopping involved. And some people wonder why I love shopping so much.



Later that night we visited Clarke Quay for some Turkish ice cream treat. This place is a riviera gem in the bustling city. A must visit for you who is young and hip. I'm young but I'm not very hip, sadly...


Flew back home the next morning.

I hope you found any use of this photo diary :) I bold the name of the places I visited in case you just want to find ideas of places to visit instead of reading the whole post.

Have a great week ahead!

I hope your September has been full of memories.
Clearly, I had a rather good month since it's my birthday. And it has been one perfect month indeed. Thank you September. You have been beautiful.
Looking forward for October!
I'll be back with my posts from Singapore next week. Until then :)

P.S. How GORGEOUS is that teacup that my friend gave to me as a birthday present?


Hello, I'm still in Singapore. Most likely fighting the rain.. Boohoo.
Hopefully you'll like the video. I know it's not very creative and the video is dark, but I actually like it! It's the first time I discover a fading effect for transition in every short clip. I felt like I won the lottery. LOL.
Wishing everyone a super happy midweek...
