Love You Like XO : Ikat Clutch


Yellow,,
I'm a fan of anything that comes in Indonesia's traditional fabric, such as Batik or Ikat, which lately becoming more famous in our local fashion industry. When I visited Indonesia Fashion Week last month, I saw this cute clutch made from Tenun Ikat Bali on one of the stall there. I tried to ignore and continued to walk around the exhibition. However, after finished strolling around, I was still thinking about the clutch and you know what's the meaning when you kept thinking about something after you saw it in a store or in a display? you have to have it !! So I decided to go back to where I saw it and finally bought it ^^/







I prefer monochrome
To Have and To Hold , couldn't agree more!! *wink

Btw, did you know that Ikat is the oldest patterned fabric in the world? 
makes me even prouder to wear it.

There's always be those pattern that become fashion 'it' things in a year. Probably #gingham will be the pattern of 2015. So here's my haul from a thrift shop, a midi vintage dress on a brown and blue color combo. This dress gets me at hello ,,

Style in Pink and Red

Hai peeps

Love is in the air when it comes to the second month of the year. The heart shapes, flowers, dolls are everywhere, decorate shopping centers,  restaurants  and cafes, and also advertisement on tv or media paper. Everything seems to fit the romantic ambiance especially on Valentine's Day. For those who celebrate the day, some might think that the best way to dress on Valentine's Day date is by wearing Pink outfit. However some other think Red is more agreeable on reflecting the love. But how about to wear both colors together for your outfit?




  
Pick red color as the highlight of the outfit, for instance a red maxi skirt paired with pink top.  I tried to put pink as the main color of the entire look but somehow it didn't work. Add a neutral color hijab and handbag, because pink and red are bright enough so you don't need another color. Black hijab and handbag would be good to give elegant touch.


Talking about Valentine's Day, sebenarnya saya bukan termasuk orang yang merayakan Valentine. Tapi euphoria Valentine's Day di bulan February mengingatkan saya untuk lebih ekspresif dan lebih sering mengungkapkan perasaan kepada orang yang kita sayangi. Karena dengan adanya perayaan Valentine's Day seolah mendapat legitimasi untuk menyatakan rasa peduli dan sayang, yang biasanya malu malu untuk diungkapkan. I'm talking about your love to friends and family. Probably almost every second every day you do things to prove your love to your lover, but how about your friends and family? people who actually there for you when you are low. You can go for a date with your lover every weekend, so why don't you go for a dinner date with your friends or family to celebrate your love .... 



PS. I asked my family to have a dinner on Val's day, but sorry no picture because we were out of control when the dishes were brought to our table, sudah lapaarr tak sempat foto foto,, #bukanmakanmakancantik ^^
