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. :)

Connect the Dot

Once upon a time, I had a crazy fancy on dots. Because I tend to wear my favorite piece of clothing all over again and again, I thing I'v done too much with stripes. And also, I like everything that have vintage vibes, so something on polka-dot which is one of vintage style would be a  good choice to get over my boredom of stripes. So, I went to a vintage store and I found this lovely polka-dot dress which comes in yellow color.

Girls Gone Crazy

Assalamuallaikum

Yellow girls, here's a throwback story of me at the grand opening of H&M store. Actually almost all of my post here is a *hashtag* throwback since I have not much time to write a.k.a too lazy to update my blog *wink.

In April 2014, Australian in particular Melbournian felt so much excited because H&M will open their first store in Australia. Australia H&M is a concept store situated in GPO Building at Bourke Street, where only takes five minutes from my place, could you imagine how excited is that?! . I know they’ve opened H&M store in Indonesia almost a year before they build it here in Melbourne, but I never went there because I rarely bought and wore brands other than my clothing brand WAM back that time. Somehow I felt tempted and excited to join all Melbournian to be the person who firstly entered the store and shop on the grand opening day. In addition to my excitement, I heard they give 20% whole store discount which I figured later that no discount at all that day :D . I queued with a friend of mine and other hundreds excited people for an hour before H&M opened the store. I even shouted with them, counting the grand opening time down, things that I would never do in Jakarta  **alay banget gituh

they set the count down since few days before

the queue was crazy

feels like Colombus when he first arrived in the land of America **kiss the floor**

the inside store

three floors shopping heaven

with my partner in crime, we learned not to give up that day

GPO stands for General Post Office, and yes the building is formerly a post office which built in 19^th century in a Victorian style. Both the inside and outside’s store looks so beautifully vintage, offering comfortable yet classy atmosphere that makes you feels like shopping in a boutique instead of a ready-to-wear brand store. What could makes my day more than shopping nice cloth in a nice place. 

I love cloth and I love vintage (venue)
