Midi Me : How I Wear My Midi Skirt



Hello peeps!

OMG long time no post here! yes I know, I'm a lazy blogger.. but hey, the reason I rarely write new posts is because I try to share something useful on my blog. For me, blog is a media where I can share things through my posting such as experience, knowledge, thought etc and off course some picture to support the story. Some readers might enjoy seeing (not reading) a blog that only contains 'beautiful picture', but me, since the first time I became familiar with blogging world by reading dianarikasari, hijabscarf and jezmineblossom I knew that what we wrote is as important as the picture we post.
So here I am, after a while finally try to share some tips about how to wear a midi skirt. 

Midi skirt is a another choice of skirt that hijabi can wear, besides maxi skirt or pencil skirt. I started to do experiment with this kind of skirt because cute midi skirt is easier to find in Melbourne rather than to find a pretty maxi skirt. Midi skirt is tricky to wear, but here are some do's to pull off wearing a midi skirt.






1# Tuck your top into your skirt. This way is to create a longer lower body. When you slip in your top it will give you better waist-to-toes proportion

2# Wear a crop outer for a chic look. If you like to add an outer onto your look, choose the crop one. We want to avoid too much layer around your waist because the shape of midi skirt itself is already full and flare. Here i wore a crop cardigan on top of my basic tshirt.





3# Wear nude color footwear to give a long legs illusions. If you pair it wrongly, midi skirt can make you look short. If you worry your skirt will make you look shorter, pair your midi skirt with nude shoes. Flat shoes will be ok but pump heels or wedges will give you taller look even more. I wore a nude rope platform wedges. *since it's the only wedges I have :D

4# Choose the perfect length of skirt, not too low and most importantly not too high because we don't want to show too much ankles. You can wear a full legging underneath your skirt if you like. 





That's what I can share for you guys today
see you soon

girls and wardrobe


Assalamuallaikum
Yellow all,,

Long time no see yes? and do you know what makes me write again after a while? It is our inspiring girl, irmapoezh, who is lately excited to blog again and promote it in her social media. 

Anyhow, what I want to write today is about my closet. Since I moved to a four seasons country, my closet went crazy mess with stuffs. I felt like I need to have proper outfits for the whole seasons - summer, autumn, winter, spring thus I went crazy on shopping and bought too much stuffs. Some of the stuffs ended up never worn even once. Frankly this happened before to me with my UP shoes as I posted here. 

To avoid having unnecessary stuffs in our closet, it is important to know your style. By knowing your style, you can invest more in essential items that get along well with your style. Because no matter how much fashion item you have, you will have those favorite items which you wear more often then the other, the items that really represent your style. There are several items that essential for me, that without any conscious I had several of it on my closet and wear it much. 

#1 
neon colors


#2
Animal print


#3
Neutral hue (white more preferable)



oo0, another tips for your closet, organize your cloth based on its colour. Notice how I stack my black  t-shirt and white t-shirt together. Ooops pardon my messy closet :D


and when you want to keep you boots in a good shape, put some water bottles waste inside of it. But make sure you've dried the bottle first!




Hope those tips could help you so you will never stand and stare infront of your closet and say to yourself  - I have nothing to wear!!

Off Duty


Assalamuallaikum 
Yellow girls

As you all may know, I'm now continuing my study abroad which means I'm currently 'off duty', if you like to say, It's not that I quit from my job, can't do that since I'm a civil servant, instead I will engage with my work for quit long time. Talking about long time, do you know how boring it is to do the same routine activity every day for years? That was how I felt before I move here to study. Being good at one thing traps me in a comfort zone thus make me forget how to be curious and eager to learn new things. At some point I feel  like I've done a lot for my office and it's time for me to improve my capacity and knowledge. Then here I am, away not only from my office but also from family and things I love - my business. It was sad to leave my 'WAM' when big opportunities were offered to me to grow my brand bigger that time. But life is a box of chocolate and they all tasty in different flavour. Somehow you have to choose one in a time so you can taste how sweet each of it is. A lot of time I miss doing my business, but it is hard to run a business from a far away distance. So I think maybe this is the time for me to improve my capability on fashion industry. Last month I joined a class related to fashion and planning to take other classes.








I will utilize my 'off duty' period to learn as many as I can to enhance my capacity as a public servant and also as a manager of WAM. If somehow you feel yourself in an 'off-duty' condition, where you have nothing to do because you are not going anywhere on weekend, or maybe because you are currently not working yet, you might want to start to think that it is the best time to explore yourself by learning more. :)
