Some of you maybe realize that lately I’ve been experimenting with colors on every outfit post.. I think my job is starting to effect me.. Oh!  I never shared with you about that, did I? Well, I’m working at one of the post-production house as a junior colorist.. The job desk is to edit the color and create a mood on movies and TV commercials.. So, 4 months being so close with colors, slowly but sure I can feel those colors sneak into my life and changed it one way or another.. Seriously, like I wrote on my previous post, I got so many great opportunities and all of that.. Isn’t it obvious? This job gives me positive vibe..

Anyway, don't hesitate to tell me your opinion about my color mood, ok? ;)

Hairstyle Inspiration

2013 is almost end.. It means getting dress up and party time!
I believe that we already found our perfect outfit.. But sometimes it's hard for us to find the perfect hairstyle to complete our new year look.. So, I've been searching and searching many hairstyles from runway to street style and finally here are my 7 favorite easy-to-make Fall 2013 hairstyles.. :)

Retro Glam

Side Braid

Hair Bun

Messy Ponytail

Pinned Straight

Braided Up-do

Half Up Half Down

For you who have a not-so-long hair like me, you don't have to be worry because we still can rock these hairstyle by using clip-in hair extensions.. Yes, hair extensions..

Well, to be honest I'm not into clip-in hair extensions before, I thought it will be very hard to used and will make your head heavy.. Until I watched hair-extensions tutorial.. I was so surprise that it's easy and looks very good.. I'm totally changing my perspective about clip-in hair extensions now..

A little steps to wear a clip-in hair extensions: 

Create a good base. You need to give the hair some grip so that the combs on the back of the extension have something to hold onto and don't slip out. You can use hair spray and tease the area where you'll apply the clips.

Be a master of disguise. Fine-haired ladies like myself need to be more careful so the top of the extension doesn't peek through our natural hair. Teasing the hair above and below the clip will help you to cover it and also give you some extra hold.

Use your heat tools. The most important step is to blend your natural hair and the extension together. You can either use your curling iron to create a wavy texture or flat iron if you want to make a straight hair.

Shake it up. When you're finished, use your fingers to shake your hair and the extension, allowing it to fall naturally into place.

Last but not least, to create a beautiful hair look, you need to use a good quality of hair extensions.. You can search on www.seekhair.co.uk , they have a lot of hair extensions from straight hair to wavy hair, with different hair colors and length too.. I personally recommend you to use their 18 inch clip in hair because you will have more hair to play with.. ;)

Have a fabulous hair weekend girls..

Dreamy December

 White blouse: Upper Rack | Sweater: H&M x Isabel Marant | Bag: ASOS

Ring: Forever21 | Jeans: Stradivarius | Shoes: Stradivarius (here)

December only gone half way but so many positive things filled my days.. Life lessons, meeting new friends, a little coincidences that put a smile on my face, and many amazing opportunities..

Last Sunday, I went to OOTDindo 1st gathering and met a lot of fashionable people.. The event was superb! Unfortunately I couldn't stay until the event finished because I had other things to do.. But in a short amount of time, I got the chance to met Dwiki from The Glory, and also got featured on WhatIWear..

I feel like living in a dream and I don't wanna wake up..

There are so many things in the world to be thankful for.. From the simple one to the biggest thing.. For me, I'm really thankful for my family and friends, my job, my life and the adventures for 22 years, and last but not least is this blog and of course you, my readers.. Without one of them, I don't think that I can stand right here, right now.. I know I'm not perfect but I'm trying to change and discover myself even more, little by little.. :)

Tick Tock

 Lace Top: SheInside | Blazer: ASOS (sold out) | Shoes: ZARA

Have you ever feel that 24 hours a day is not enough? That is exactly what I felt for the past few weeks.. I have to split myself into 3 or 4 activities at the same time.. I'm not complaining but I need to slow everything down and manage my time.. Because between those hectic days, I really miss writing my thoughts here too.. Well, I guess I have to be passion and enjoy every moments.. I believe that something great and big will happen if we work hard, right? :)

Happy Weekend..

Love & Dream,

August Gift

I felt really blessed this month.. Because I got the job that I want, even though this job will make me work for almost 24 hours in the future, but hey this is a very rare opportunity and I can't ask for more, right? How about blogging then? Well, people say women can do 10 things at the same time, so it's time to prove it.. :)

Anyway, job is not the only thing that makes me happy.. Another special gift I received from Verre Compparel.. Verre Compparel is a gadget wardrobe made by Indonesia's talented designers.. 

It maybe looks like an ordinary gadget skin, but I'm telling you, it is very very far from gadget skin.. Why? Because they don't use glue or magnet but micro-suction technology.. So you can easily wear it, removed it, and then wear it again on your gadget.. Or use it to other gadgets without worrying the residue and it will stick like the first time.. Still not cool enough?

How if I tell you that you can wash this compparel? Yes! They are washable.. This is why it called gadget wardrobe.. You can wash it like your clothes I also didn't believe it until I tried to wash it and I can assure you this is real! ;)

I'm not a gadget maniac but Verre is really special and I found it very perfect not only for my gadget but also my personalities.. You can check their amazing designs here but you can also design your own compparel..

One more cool things, they also ship internationally.. So, what are you waiting for? Get your Verre Compparel now... ;)

There's a time when you didn't want to play with colors on your outfit.. And it doesn't matter because we can do a lot of combination only with black and white..

Adding the cowboy hat and my current favorite white strap shoes.. Oh about this shoes, the silver details really caught my eyes and I couldn't help myself but to score them right away.. Well, every girl needs a white shoes right? ;)

So, this is my black-and-white version.. Happy Sunday all..

War is Over

After almost 6 months dating with my computer, I can proudly say, my final project is DONE! Adding a little something something behind my name.. :D

Flashback to the final judgement day, everything went very well.. A nervous feeling mixed with an enormous support from my friends and family, plus the B score for my short movie made the day even more perfect.. Another step in my life is done..So, what's next?

Well, I definitely have to put on my running shoe and get my shape back (gaining 4 kilos without any exercise *sigh).. A long with that is maintaining my blog, I need to find a photographer A-S-A-P (if you're a photographer based on Jakarta and interested to collaborate, please don't hesitate to email me :) ).. Last but not least, work, of course (*finger crossed).. Oh I can't wait to begin my next adventures!
