.Stylish Vacation 101.


I always very excited when I need to arrange a holiday even a short trip
I know for sure about how many days that i need to explore one place
and how much things that i need to bring

I prefer morning flight for domestic flight so I prepare all pretty things the night before
Here's my tips for having a stylish vacay

In this moment I mostly visited a place that have so many beautiful beach
so we need a hat, super cute sunglasses and sunblock
this time i bring tanning spray 
(I'm not quiet a girl who adore and being addicted to have a porcelain skin)

Focus on the place that you want to visit
If you choose a beach, shorts are must
Maybe a couple of tank tops or others top which made from a thin fabric
make sure your clothes are full color, why?
Because it's a vacation, be cheer up by showing your playful outfit
This moment I also bring the black outfit because it's a possibility to go to the church on Sunday

Simple way to mix and match is bring your match suit
I just made two match sets, one in shocking pink and another is in black polkadots pattern
I'm pretty happy with my tailor man since it's prefect fitted and done before i go to this short trip

Of course you can't forget to bring your best swimsuit and a snorkeling gear
be ready to have a cute be achy shoots by bringing your cute bag
this time i bring my birdy box and a couple of headpieces, necklace and earrings

Last things to be broughts are band-aid (in case you get bitten by plankton), 
small package of fragrance and hair mist
Buying a great hair mist is an investment, why?
They keep your hair shiny and smells good besides
it also keep your hair looks health, cover from the sun and the water of the ocean which contains
of so many minerals that can damage your hair

polkadots suit by tailor made//orange loose shirt by cotton ink//blue tank by cotton ink//
white shorts by petite cupcakes//unbranded green mini skirt//white shirt by Zara//eye mask by the body shop//love earrings from new look//guess watch//pink satin suit by tailor made//owl necklace by (x)xml//handmade birdy box//polkadots platform by asks//straw hat from payless//handmade floral headpiece by her&him//shades from MNG and Calvin Klein//Tanning spray by Banana Boat//X-tray hair mist//Can Can eat from a friend//band-aid//one piece swimsuit by twenty for teen

.Hello Beach {part 2}.


Yay! Finally I have some time to post this last part of my short holiday
This time I was in Oar Island, a few miles from Umang Island but still this two island near from Java Island
Oar Island is very small one, you can go around this island about five until ten minutes
It such a great experience for me, like a dream come true
Since me and my brother have some minds that we try to catch all beautiful island that has a pretty beach
all around Indonesia, I hope we can make our wish come true

We feel this island like our private beach, it was so quite and very relaxing when i was there
snorkeling is my first thing to do as soon as i step my food on the sands
I saw a couple of memo, some cute coral reefs and a big shape coral that you can stand above it (sssttt you must move your feet around since you can step your feet above those coral reefs because you can destroy them, better watch your feet or take a pair of fin. 
Believe me i'm not very comfortable with those fin but it's helpful)

This is my first trip with my office mates,
sometimes I wish my office mates has a similar age like me
But now i realize how much I love them,
I've been thankful to know them, they are my best seniors and boss!
They like friends, seniors but also I feel like they're my parents when they keep their eye on me
and they know and understand how happy I'm to do snorkel 
and seeing or screaming around to release my mind,lol. 

"You think that you know the best thing for yourself,
that's why you've never be thankful about what you've have
until you lose it"

Be cheerful and still stylish :)

I have a feeling that I'm gonna meet another beach very soon
sssttt.. don't spread this good news until I release some pictures,lol.

.Hello Beach {part 1}.

Hola..
Finally i have me time to post some picture about my last getaway
This upcoming Eid Mubarak definitely make me stay at home
my house maid already going back to their hometown to celebrating Eid with their family and friends, honestly i hope they won't forget to come back to my house.

Because of this issue i must stay at home for making meals and cleaning the house but i still have some times to do browsing, chatting and of course tweeting,lol.

So, here we go..
At the end of July I had a short trip getaway with some of my seniors from my office, we spent two days and one night in an island called "Umang" and spent about a few hours at "Oar" island at the last day before we're going back to our town.

Here's the journey when we spent our first day at "Umang"
I think pictures will show you more than my writing
Actually nothing special when i was there
I just in love with the beach, with the ocean, with nemo fish
or with another underwater things.

I saw the blue sky, the teal ocean's water and sometimes it looks blue too, also the white sands. All those kinds make me feel relax and calm. In the night when I was a little bit out of my mind I swam and screaming out loud just release my feeling about the bad things or something that bother me a lot. 
It helped me to move on :)

all pictures above courtesy of me
This is a recap about my first day at "Umang" island
all tiring moment for seven hours to get here was worth
even i'm not really sure to have that experience once more,lol
see you on the next part..

.new looks.

This is the first time in my life have a super short trip on weekends. Two weeks ago I have a short trip for two days and a night to Singapore with my childhood friends. We've been together because we went to the same church and knowing each other quite well. Well it was the hardest day because we just had a little time to shop,hahaha. Definitely never go overseas with a friend that love to shop, or at least stay longer! ooppps!

Haul from drugstore and airport stand//h&m catalog//ikea catalog//passport//smartphone

It was a very plesant short trip even I didn't go to cute cafe for hang or just gossiping because we are too busy to get a cute stuffs, but we eat a lot, we walk a lot and we smile a lot. I never go to Spore without visiting ikea even the place quite far away from my place to stay. This time I'm back to ikea tampines, yayness! It's the biggest ikea in this city because they have their own building and restaurant. Sttt but this is my first time have a lunch in ikea since i was busy to buy a lot of things on my list.

Haul from IKEA
flowery cheap pillow//kids laundry bag//kids jewelry bag//two bed set//candle lantern

Browsing ikea web is a must thing to do before you go there, why? Because you will buy something that you need or at least you already make a list and have a budget, except when you were there you get some stuffs that on sale or you can't find it on their site. I know ikea stuffs is kinda cheap or affordable but I always adore how they create something that look very pretty from recycle things or simple material, oh and their fabric is amazing! I didn't buy it but still adore the fabric pattern.

Haul from Orchard and Bugis
Orange wedges//Dark Blue Batwing Dress//Minty with super cute collar top//
Basic tee and Boyfriend Pants from uniqlo//snake skin pattern top by h&m//
unbranded colorful and braided belts by h&m//sunglasses pouch by h&m

My best finds so far is this colorful belts, it's very cheap and looks very cute. Also I got a few earrings coming with a good price and very cutie. Ahh I can't really describe my feelings about getting things in affordable price but also makes you look pretty,hehe.

How's about your weekends friend? I hope it was terrific just like what I had. By the way what's going on in fashion world right now? I think for local, it's going like basic, clean cut design but there is one brand that coming with flowery collections (will writing about this very soon). For global trend I think color block things still catch our heart, flowery sheer blouse and collar details! Oh i love when i don't have any deadline in the office and just upgrade my knowledge with fashion things or self improvement things.

Good Night and Have a Sweet Dreams..

.c o m  i n g   h o m e. (part 1)


I've ever write that my grandma passed away, it happened about a month ago so me and the big family from my Dad back to their hometown for the ceremony. This is my second trip after the first one that happened in January, my grandpa passed away and that makes all the big family back to town for the ceremony. It feels weird because too many realtives died this year, mostly because they have a long illness, i think i don't need to write about it because it's too sad to share the story. I know sometimes my tweet or my writing bored you telling about a healty life or a healhy food, even my brother saying that i'm healthy freak! oh please i'm not, i still eat those junk food or fried things but i try to leave it all behind and eat more vegetables.

I'm saying this because being healthy is cheap but when you get an illness you can't imagine how much dollars that you spend for being a normal person, i mean the healthy one. In my town there is so many young people get heart attack and so many crucial disease that make you to get a donor for some part of your body. This is really creapy but it's true. 

I see some people doing a stupid things like ruin their normal life and being a bad person with a bad attitude and bad habit on the night life that's too long to be written just beacause they don't want to be called as a geek or just want to be a famous and hype person. It's not a harm as long as you do it a few times but just don't make it too often. You will underestimate this non sense words but oneday when you have some critical desease you will respect your body and realized it's too late. 


I'm coming from a big family both from my Dad and Mom's side, also have a family who still attached with a culture very well make me feel blessed. There's nothing wrong with the culture, people say it's old and uncool but there is some value that you can get from this matter, such as a very tight family connection among us, every problems is solved by discussion even when you get divorce is more creppy than got an E on your test. Anyway in the picture above, it's the three big man from my Dad's family, my Dad is the man in dark suit from the left. Another creepy things that in my opinion the three of us look very similar,hehe.

My brother replace my Dad's place//The line of the big family//some of the grandchildren

My fave capture: A man doing traditional dance call "tor-tor"//my uncle and my aunt wearing this super cool headband made from the real gold ornaments//my lovely grandpa called "opung"

Just give your attention and your full heart to people around you, so when they gone you'll never feel sorry because you give your best to them and can smile to remeber their kindness and their feedback of your love and care. Happy weekend..
