the Royal Wedding

I bet you guys watched, or even now are still watching the Royal Wedding, rite? what has successfully catched your attention? for me, its the parade of Phililip Treacy hats and rows of structured dresses, which I guess will be the 'must have items' soon.

here are some spotted structured dresses I found...

colour me, would you?

Hi, dears... it almost 2weeks since the last time I updated my blog. honestly, I blog for myself, I don't even think that there's someone out there (wants to) read my blog, until yesterday, a friend of mine told me that she loves reading my blog. it kinda excites me and makes me feel like blogging a.s.a.p, haha.. (if you read this, thanks to you, non)

Anw, I'm currently in love with vibrant and neon colors. to be honest with you, I have no idea why, and I don't know whether its in trend now or what. its like, suddenly they amuse me, just like that. trust me, on my wardrobe, the hue is navy, black, beige, brown, black, grey and white. I love them cause they're versatile. but suddenly I feel like they're boring.

So, afraid that I'm a fashion victim, I do my own research, and voila! I found that people are starting to wear vibrant and neon colors as well. like what you can see here..... (photos courtesy of Streetpeeper.com)

So, what do you think? are they really in trend now? I mean, since its Spring-Summer season anyway. or issit just me?

Another Lookbook-ers


I actually have a Lookbook account from months ago. but I haven't got the guts and the mood to post an outfit post yet, cause I always think that others' style will definitely better than mine. so, by doing this (keep posting about my Lookbook's idols) it kinda helps me to start Lookbook-ing (hopefully soon).

Anw, my previous post was about Indonesian Lookbook-ers, so now I'll move onto the international ones. (again, the number isn't the rank-based)


1. Andy Torres - a famous Mexican fashion blogger who lives in Amsterdam. no wonder if you guys know her already. anw, click here to visit her Lookbook page or here to open her blog.



2. Ebba Zingmark - a girl from Umea who somehow reminds me a lot of Taylor Swift. don't you think so? click here to visit her Lookbook page



3. Shan S - sweet sweet craft teacher from Osaka. I think her style is kinda more to like Elle Yamada's style (refer to my previous post) what do you think? click here to see her looks on Lookbook.



4. Chiara Ferragni - last but not least, a gorgeous Italian blogger from Milan. not many people can wear a pumpkin-colored maxi dress with high slit like that and still rocking it. but she? she definitely rocks it!! visit her page here.

Lookbook Stars

Recently, I've been doing nothing. Just watching CSI (oh, yes, Imma big fan) and starring at the lookbook posts from others. These photos below are my current 'idols' on Lookbook and maybe, for most of you, this isn't your first time hearing about them.

So, let's start with the local (Indonesian) stylish women. (the number isn't the rank-based)

1. Anastasia Siantar



most of the times, she just wears a simple top with short, just a casual outfit. and sometime, she creatively makes an experience with her clothes. but no matter what she wears, it always looks good on her. personally I think, its not about how expensive are the goods she wears, but how she puts on everything together. want to 'observe' her more? check out her blog here


2. Silvia Siantar



I always presume her style as the countess' style. you know, like how the first lady and duchess dress up. she's the simply elegant woman. and somehow her style always reminds me of Blake Lively. everytime I saw her new post, I always think that "Blake will definitely looks good in this outfit". You can click here to visit her blog.
and honestly, I've been wondering whether Silvia is Anastasia's relative, since they have the same surname and also because both of them are equally gorgeous.


3. Michelle Koesnadi



For me, she's also the kind of duchess but in a total different way than Silvia. She's the classy chic lady. and, fyi, the 2nd look of her is my fave look of her. although, it's soo simple, but it seems like there are a lot of 'meanings' behind the simplicity. Click here to get to know her style more.


4. Elisa (Elle) Yamada






She's the admirably sweet pretty woman. She has a unique way to express herself in fashion. I always love the way she mixes and matches a lot of things, but in the end it doesn't look too much. instead, it looks so harmonious all together. Maybe you've heard about an online shop called Gowigasa before? Yes? she's the owner, together with her sister Jessica Yamada. the clothes thay sell are good in quality and it comes with affordable price as well! I've bought Gowigasa's clothes a couple times and so far I'm never disappointed. so, why not you check out her blog here :)
