I think it's been a while since I am not talking about fashion. Maybe even with myself. I think I have this phase of i-lost-my-passion-of-many-things. Well, it felt so bad. Sometimes, fashion means pleasure for me. Beautiful clothes, beautiful girls, and good-styling. It is such a runaway, I guess.

Here is some hair inspirations. Simple looks. And sleek. I love it.

Pretty Hat

I just love everything at this picture. The hat is perfect. And the bow is so cute! I also like the stripped blue t-shirt. I think blue and pink never go wrong.

keep walking, keep thinking

I had some brand new shoes

They were all red but they gave me the blues

And they're runnin' away, they left me a letter

It's just like you told me it'd be

It's nothin' nothin' nothin'

nothin' at all

From Flats For Jade Fall 2011

i have shoe obsession. i wanna have many shoes (and my daddy gonna kill me before it gonna be happen). walk in shoe closet, anyone? who can resist it? okay, maybe you prefer clothes. or books. don't make joke about book worm. they are cool! and smart. and clever. and awesome!

i keep looking at Flats for Jade. so simple, clean, and polish. and cute! actually i resist something cute now, but i can't resist Flats for Jade! many of their customers said that the flats are really comfort. how can i resist it?
the bad news is they are small in size. many people give advice to take 1 size bigger than your common size. and for you who have wide legs, this shoes are so slim. maybe you should try it on first (at bazaar, or everywhere. Flats for Jade at Bandung now!) before you decide to buy.

you got me in the rain

On the radio

We heard November Rain

That solo's really long

But it's a pretty song

We listened to it twice

'Cause the DJ was asleep

(On The Radio - Regina Spektor)

today is such a happy day. yesterday, i downloaded iTunes and felt so happy about it. this iThing is so cool! and the rain. i really like rain. everyday is a rainy day here. and i am happy about that.

From Ciciero Lookbook. (oh, i didn't notice their pose! the rule : place your hand around your face. touch your hair or glasses!)

and i got something that i really want last night. satchel! finally i have one. it come from Ciciero. i really recommend this store. the owner is nice, and we have the same nickname! (hi, Mbak Dini! happy birthday to you. xx) so funny. if you read my blog from very beginning, you'll realize that i am obsessed with this bag. you can read it here. i decided to get yoland black instead of the brown. first impression : it is shiny! but that is not a problem at all. i really like the satchel. and, the material is so great. i call it 'special suede for me'. you can't ask more because it is very great. Mbak Yuri made review about Ciciero bag too. and she also said that the material is very good. so, you should have no doubt about the quality. by the way, Vicky is awesome too! i choose dark brown. one, please.

talking about satchel, i have long story about it. long story short, i waste my time looked for satchel. from google (yeah, i am biggest google fan), and multiply. there is nothing as good as Ciciero. really. i am not lying. i waste my last holiday. it was about 2 months. and several weeks before that. by the way, if you looking for branded bags or shoes, better not to go to multiply. there are a lot of fake bags and shoes. kw is fake, darling. do you get it so far? i am so sad when i saw fake stuff, literally everywhere. do you know that in Hong Kong they burn it? yeah, that fake stuffs. they burn it! how can you interest to buy one (or some)? there is a lot of affordable stuff here. since everybody scream,  "we love local product" i found many great things. i have told you. you can read it here. that is only several of great local brand, you can find more local brand at @inabizz.

i really like to buy from online shop now. the moment when i wait for the stuff. the happiness when the stuff was arrived. when i tried it on for the very first time. and my love is keep growing for this stuff. maybe i should make online store too. but i don't know. have my own shop. that is one of my passion, by the way.

books are good friends all the time

this weekend i do not need to hurry to do my task. i have task, absolutely. but i did it long time ago. and i wait a friend to complete it. i am not cheat. that is just okay.

this is so clever! shirt underneath the dress.

i had wore three layers one day. shirt + cardigan +jacket. and my friends thought that i was crazy or something. i need winter! that is why live at tropic country is not so fun.

i went to bookstore today and found me wanna buy many books, uni related. this fact surprise me, actually. oh my, i really really love books. love that comfort me. i'll tell you something. one day, i thought i like a man (he is seems so gentle, but i don't know at all. i don't change my mind yet). but suddenly, i get some fact that is silly for me. that is not silly for any body else, only me no more. i live at comfort zone there. when i decided to love someone, it means i leave my comfort zone. then i realized that my comfort zone is much better than something else. i love my life. but sometimes my life is too plain until i wanna scream out loud. i didn't, of course. that is only at my mind. 

good news! a friend decided to make zine with me. i am so happy. we need some more people. if you're at my town, you can email me.

by the way, do you know about COMMONUNCOMMON? this is so cool! you should read it.

oh man, your photo giggle on me!

that day, when i like someone. that day, when i wanna eat candies (Rookie, you talked about it. You call it 'Drugs for Children' which is so hilarious. Thanks!) that day, when i wanna write a lot. that day when i wanna smile and cry and hurt and smile again. that day, when i am obsessed to Miu Miu. that day, when i wanna marry. that day, i wanna take a long walk. that day, when i wanna go to beach. that day when i wanna buy some shoes (and bags). that day, when i wanna go out at night. that day, when i 'waste' my time too much. that day, when i feel something different. that day, when i love some people better than my self. that day, when i wanna scream to stop the time. that day, when i wish time is only time, be in hurry is unnecessary. that day, when the dream is better than the reality. that day, when i wanna read my Enid Bilton books again and again. that day, when i should study more. that day, when i get some nice things. that day, when i feel happy for no reason. that day, when i miss my old friends. that day, when i really really want some candies!

that day is today.

i got myself bleed and cry and hurt

Spring 2012

all pictures from Jason Wu edited with Photofiltre.

Oh my, Jason Wu you are so awesome! 

First, I noticed him when Vogue featured him at August 2010 issue. Maybe I read his name somewhere before, but I forget.

His collection is great! Chic-but-not-at-boring-way. He can make something that make me want it, like a kid want candy. Yeah, candy. That sweet things. Sweet baby, sweet. Until it makes your tooth sick, just like my heart. Although I am obsessed to Miu Miu Spring 2010 (so obsessed until I can't think another thing previous weeks).

How can I life without beautiful clothes? I can actually, but in a different way. A way so different.

Miuccia Prada is GENIUS. should i say more? you can describe it better.

I want to show you my favorite editorial with my favorite girl, Kate Talanova! (Kate, I love you! I am so happy when you gave me wall on facebook!) (I am not on facebook for now) (facebook is not everything, my friend).

Life Is A Dance

Cosmopolitan September 2011

Photographer: Adi Nugroho

Digital imaging artist: Andrea Marpaung

Model: Kateryna Talanova

Make up artist: Qiqi Franky and Team

Assistant fashion editor: Marsya Labde

Something that make me want to make this post is SUDDENLY I DANCE WHEN I HEAR God Help The Girl. When I should study for my test, I couldn't handle my self not to dance. You should hear them because they are so fabulous! Stuart Murdoch is genius to make this musical project. If you have no idea who is he, he is leader of Belle and Sebastian. Don't know this band? They're part of OST Juno who sing Piazza, New York Catcher. Still have no idea? Google it.

And another great thing about this editorial is THERE ARE MANY LOCAL PRODUCT THERE. Cotton Ink, Antyk Butyk, Allura Design, Nikicio, and UP shoes.

• Cotton Ink. It come from two friends, Carline and Ria (how sweet!) They called their collection as casual with a twist. There are a lot pastel colors. So girly, so fresh! They are the it shop for now. You should be fast to order from their website (or go to their shop which is far from my house, different town you know) before everything is sold out. You don't want it, yes? Kate also be model there! For me, Cotton Ink is about comfort and feminine.
• Antyk Butyk. Many people like it. I like Colours of Fabrics, not all actually. I like number 4 and 8. I want to be honest that I only like several from their collection.
• Allura Design. Allura is about flower. It is so girly girl accessories. They provide headband, hairclip, and necklace. So beautiful. You can see from girls from the lookbook that they are very happy to wear Allura piece (I bet you'll do too). Why you're not happy to wear beautiful piece? (especially from Allura. I WILL). When I saw their collection, all I want is wear beautiful dress and the headband (which look like flower crown) then go picnic! (my life gonna be HAPPILY EVER AFTER).
• Nikicio. To be honest, their shirt become my obsession! Finally, last month I got the-piece-that-I-wanted-for-life. It is a black shirt! The back is longer than the front which is so cool and makes me so Tokyo-ish. I got the shirt at Centro Dept. Store. Last Thursday, I went to Centro to see some Nikicio but unfortunately it was gone! (WHYYYYYY???) I want some more! It is so versatile, so comfort, SO ME!
• UP shoes. It is Diana Rikasari shop. I decided to buy a Stella Red which is quite good. They provide many cute sandals. You'll like it if your life means cuteness. Ribbon, flower, and colorful.

I can make an essay if I want. But this is so late night and I should sleep or I gonna be late for my class. Holiday is over. OVER.

A Ciciero Bag

I am not a plastic bag.

You will not suffocate
if you stick me quickly on your head.
See: you look just great.

(Bill Greenwell)

Yoland Caramel Tan - Ciciero

I have such a big crush with satchel, long time before I saw Alexa Mulberry. Why I like satchel? I prefer messenger bag than rucksack. Enough said. 

Actually I am in doubt whether to choose this color or black. My sister said that I should buy something brown. But in my opinion black is long lasting, never old.

Love,

Diny

There are Many Similar Shoes, You Know

I just read Copycat or Coincidence? Stella McCartney vs. BCBG by Shoe-Tease.

We saw many similar shoes, right? Sometimes, this is little bit hard to say whether a brand is copycat another brand. But, we absolutely hope for something new. Maybe a new shape? ;)

Do you remember something? Well, this shoes make me remember Milan Gold of Flats for Jade. But thank God, they're on different color.

Creative is a way that everybody looking for. But sometimes, being creative is pretty hard.

PS. I am sick about this summer temperature. Very cold in the morning and too hot in the noon.

Love,

Right. ALERT : Maxi skirt. It is on-the-top-trend right now.

Can you see the energy of this pictures? I like pictures that captured true expressions. Big and true smiles. Sometimes, I saw people didn't smile that came from their heart. I called it fake smile.

Daily Shoes

All I need are Kickers and Crocs!

red flats - Fleurette

But I can't resist cute shoes. Hehehe.

Today I went to mall with my niece. We found many great things. One of it is I found a really, really comfort shoes! Flats, wedge, and heels. All come from KICKERS. I tried on Kickers and it was so comfort. Really really comfortable. I want you, Kickers! At my town, you can find Kickers at Shoe Line, Centro Dept. Store, and Matahari Dept. Store. But, they are not update about Kickers new arrival. This is a mistake, believe me. Buyer of all shoe store, please provide us the last collection. We want everything update, don't we? Yes, we are.

So true that everyday we need Kickers. It is so comfort!

And let's talk about Crocs. First, I don't like it. It is a fail for me. But their last collection is kinda awesome. I need a pair of Crocs, actually. But I resist it because I told people that I hate Crocs. Then, I know where is my fault. Don't say you hate a brand, maybe next time they'll make a great things. Just say that you don't like this or that shoes. I'll say it loudly, "I need Crocs and I want it. They are good."

Hello Kitty. How cute! Good job, Crocs.

I can say that all I want now is : Kickers and Crocs. Kickers because I need shoes that is so comfortable  and give me no pain. Crocs because I live at tropis country which means there are a lot of rain.

I know what I need. I hope I can close my eyes to anything else. I'll close my eyes! Which is too difficult to me. Very difficult.

I hope you have a great and wonderful day.

Love,

Diny

Being Simple, Girls

Simple. Chic. Sweet.

In my reality, be simple is a must. I am not doing something that too overwhelmed. I do not have many time for it. But if I have, better I stay simple to avoid people stares. I am such a shy girl, but not at all. Ha! Be a fashionista that follow trend all the way seems not allowed at my circle-life. I am not a follower, really. Sometimes (or many times) I really wanna wear heels to college, but almost I didn't. As a college-girl this is so difficult to be focused on my study. There are many tease things out there. I can't not tease. It is very difficult. Actually, I am on my process to be 'human'. To be accepted, to be kind, to be loved.

White dress. Many people told that white dress is a must. But not for me. In my life, jeans is a must. You can't survive in this world without jeans :) The black shoes makes me remember about this :

Florence Black - Flats for Jade

Claire Healy via Vanessa Jackman

I saw many bloggers (almost of them) love to wear short (really short, I think) pants and mini skirt. Mini skirt and a-really-short-pants plus heels makes your feet looks extra longer. Claire's shoes is Moheda. 
It is similar to this:

The Multistrapes Clogs in grey - Retail Therapy

 At my country, people speak of trend "LOVE LOCAL PRODUCT". That is great, very very very great. Local artist can survive in fashion-earth without worry anymore. Their customer is welcomed local product as well. Pssst, Indonesian people is very consumptive. 

If you have a passion in fashion, now you should speak up.

Love,

Diny
