Feeling Tickled Pink
I'm feeling like wearing a lot of soft pink colours! After looking at this site.
Some fancy things I would like to wear right now.
Oh, I just want to wear chiffon and go around in bare feet (even if I did just purchase huge crazy boots). Yes, I want spring. I'm all ready for it.
Chin up, walk tall
They're here!
They are mighty tall, and I walked around them for a while thinking that I should probably return them because they're so tall.
Except they're so awesome so I'm not going to return them.
Who doesn't like some Jak & Jil for their weekend?

Go Crazy
Ohhhh I did something totally insane and spent money on a pair of boots that look like this:
Yes. They will be here tomorrow. Wonderful Guess "Maeve" boots. Kind of gothic but I can't wait to wear it with my chiffon dress with tights and leg warmers, a black blazer, and some crazy coloured scarf.
So now for some outfits that I would gladly wear. Because we all have Lacroix, Moschino and Schouler lying around in our closets.
SO EXCITED. SO IN LOVE.
But not nearly as excited or as in love with the fact that Barack Obama is now our President!!

Pretty Passport Holder
When I was walking pass the travel accessories section at Saks last month, I scoffed at the idea. Why would I need a pretty passport holder when I only use it once every few months, and when I do, only very briefly when I go through customs. Most of the time, it is kept inside my bag anyway.
A day or so later, I learnt the error of my ways. 12 hours before my international flight, I realized that my passport was not where it should be. I was completely frazzled and lost. I immediately started ransacking my apartment looking for it and even called HG internationally for moral support in my panicked state (it was the middle of the night for her too!). I kept looking while she went online and checked out what one does in a situation like this (it was a saturday night so govt departments are not even opened the next day). Half an hour later, I finally found it neatly tucked away in a inconspicuous looking white envelope. I'd used my passport 6 months ago for something else and had forgotten to put it back in the pencil case looking travel bag where I put all my travel stuff in. Phew! Crisis avoided.
The next day on my ride to the airport, I retold my story to my friend and she said that this was why I should get a pretty passport holder, then I'd never have to put my passport in a white envelope. Plus, I should get an eye catching one, so I'll see it immediately. She had a point. Now i'm a convert to pretty passport holder. The question of course, is which one. I'm considering this bright red one from Saks. It is simple, elegant and vibrant. Plus, the size is just right, with little compartments for travel award cards etc (actually it might even be a great present for mom!).
How does everyone else keep their passport?

ultra feminine with floral dress
I always luv floral dress. The material is so light, the color is so bright and could i say colorful? Lol.. But one thing that i luv most from floral dress is the extra girly touch in our look. No matter you have short hair or boyish figure, with floral dress you'll extremely change into feminine!!
You can wear this dress for evening soiree time, beach walking, hangeout in the afternoon, well briefly this dress is just perfect for flaunting your beauty in the sunny day (thanks God, Indonesia is such a tropical country). And in my post now I put some floral dresses which i adore so much. Just enjoy then...
Amo siempre el vestido floral. ¿El material es así que luz, el color es así que brillante y podría decir colorido? Lol. Pero una cosa que amo la mayoría del vestido floral es el tacto del suplemento girly en nuestra mirada. Ninguna materia usted tiene pelo corto o figura infantil, con el vestido floral podrias cambiar extremadamente en femenino!!
Usted puede usar este vestido por tiempo del soiree de la tarde, playa caminando, hangeout por la tarde, pozo que este vestido es brevemente apenas perfecto para hacer alarde de su belleza en el día asoleado (dios de las gracias, Indonesia es un país tan tropical). Y en mi poste ahora pongo algunos vestidos florales que adore tanto. Apenas goce entonces…
The two sides of bejeweled dress
Hi there..
When i was opening my closet, i found my bejeweled green blouse. I wore this only for few times, almost never actually. I don't know why, i just thought that bejeweled clothes are give heavy accent to me. I have petite figure, so maybe i should say nay for all these bejeweled clothes. And plus, i have to keep jewelery to a minimum with a beaded dress as you do not want to look like a Christmas tree. But i'm gonna say nay for the clothes only, because another bejeweled stuff such as clutch, tower heels, tongs, hairband, and other will always okay for me..
Jewel tones are hot right now. Additionally, i’ve noticed a lot of hot accessories being adorned in beautiful and bold gems stones. Well, bejeweled is just a trend that we may love and hate.. Which side are you?

Blair Waldorf Outfits
I absolutely love Gossip Girls! Not only the story, but also the fashion of each characters. They have the sweetest styles and are definitely trend setters.
The Gossip Girl trend is really relevant right now it seems everyone is talking about the show! My favorite character is Blair Waldorf. She's just perfectly irresistible with all her outfits from head to toe. Here's one of her outfits which i admire most:
So, here's the description for these outfits, hope this can helps:
1- Coat by Trina Turk ($142.40), 2- Clutch by Asos (50 pounds), 3- Black lace stockings by Asos (5 pounds), 4- Cant find da shoes, sorry. 5- Cream top blouse (199,99 $) from Marc by Marc Jacobs by saksfifthavenue, 6- Necklace from Old Navy (6,99 $)
The DVF Keva Dress
I always knew that Ms. von Furstenburg was a genius with the wrap dress, but I thought that my one printed blue DvF classic wrap dress would be enough to quench my thirst for DvF. Unfortunately, she has proven me wrong with the Keva dress.
I first caught a glimpse of it online window shopping on Shopbop. It had only just gone on sale and I thought, aww what a pretty dress. Then the other day, I saw it at a department store and I must say, it looks even better in person! Naturally I simply HAD to try it on, even though the only one on the rack was about 2 sizes too big. And it felt absolutely beautiful. It is made out of this wonderfully flowy chiffon material that moves with you as you swirl. Most of the time with these kind of dresses, the chest area would be too big for me. But from the looks of it, with the right size, it promises to fit well on me (or so I imagine). And best thing of all? With this print, this is the perfect dress for Spring. The color is dark enough that you can pair it with tights for colder weathers. But the material and design is just light enough that it will still be great for summer! The print is also not so recognizable that it will be over next season. How awesome is this dress?
Unfortunately for me, I analyze too long and now they are sold out on Shopbop (it was half price!). I've already checked the DvF website, Saks and Neiman Marcus. But alas, it looks like this dress is lost to me. I definitely need to keep my eye out for something similar in the next collection!
Oh and Happy 2009 everyone!

Dress Me
What inspires your sense of style? For me, right now it's things that drape well, a summery sort of flow, romantic things and I get inspired by photos that appear drenched in sunlight. I love photo spreads, I could spend hours upon hours staring at them and soaking in their beautiful glossy feel. This is just a hint of what has been inspiring me lately, what about you?
Kind of makes you want summer...

There's something about the girl
There's something about the girls at Garance Dore. Maybe it's their fresh faces, their glowing skin, their always inspiring looks, or their gazing eyes. I love street-style blogs, because we're not looking at people who dress to the nines everyday in clothes that cost more than they should. We're simply looking at people with their own taste, their own style, just living their lives, who happened to be caught on camera and shown to the world.
