New Year!

Good to see you again, Stripes!

Oh I love Surabaya's weather lately! It was raining hard almost everyday, a little flood here and there but my outfit today is just to enjoy the gloomy weather, haha!

It's rainy season and it's time for layering of course. I decided to wear out my stripes dress and put on a thin coat over it, oh good to see you again, Stripes!

And a glass of ice dark choco as always! ;)

So my stripe knot dress is from Label8, and this dusty flowy pink outer is from Avgal's newest collection. Not to mention, finally I take out again my stripes heels to play matchy matchy with my outfit.  

 So have you dress up for this rainy season? One thing that you should remember, please don't forget to bring your umbrella everywhere, okay? Till next post ;)

Pleats and Lace Up

I can't get bored of so many pleats skirt that I have, this time I got a combine of leather and lace pleats skirt from On The Rocks.
It's really suits for a summer outfit like this, well, my country is always summer along the year.

Just a quick shots before I dip my head to the pool, oh it's really hot that day.

Believe me when I took this pic, it takes only about less than 5 mins and my sweat was already dripping here and there, phew!

 I'm too lazy to update my blog lately, but everything is on my Instagram.

Except this, I can't hold my self not to post this on the blog.

While everybody love and busy taking photos in newest cafe, nice interior, I'm a typical of an outdoor girl.

I prefer take pictures in outdoor with rustic view here and there. Like this series, I'm amazed that my city has this view. It's located in a rooftop of a resort dining in the west of Surabaya, called Platinum Grill.

Got this little dress in victorian style from Esye. I don't know where it based, but as I know, they currently available in Surabaya & Jakarta (Indonesia), Singapore, and Kuala Lumpur. 

What I love about this dress is, its perfect cutting that make my waist part look much more slimmer. A friend of mine borrowed this dress for her event, and many of her friend ask where did she get the dress, because she looks much more slimmer in this dress, haha!

Bell Pants

I've been eyeing this cute pants but found out it's too pricey for me since I kinda easy to bored with my clothes, so I search something more affordable. I used to wear my clothes only 2-3 times then I sell them out in preloved. Then when I saw this pants at Flomors, I think that I should have this one.

Besides, I love its greyish blue color, super cute! xD

Paired it with a pajamas top, and this will be the next comfiest outfit of mine.

Preppy Little Girl

 A bit hectic lately but I'm happy that Surabaya now is getting greater.

So many new stores coming up, delicious food here and there, beautiful cafe to hang out, and bloggers in Surabaya get more recognition now.

I still remember the first day I started my blog, no instagram, no beautiful cafe. Just me, empty hallway, and my outfit :D

 Today as I write this post, so many chic places to take photos in Surabaya. One of my favourite is where I took this pic, Kawi Lounge. It's located at Sheraton Hotel Surabaya, but they come up with the new look.

Took this pic while having my we-time with my partner in crime, I choose to create a preppy look that day. 

Got this silk midi skirt from my favourite brand, AVGAL Collection, paired it with plain white shirt and I add a suspenders complete the preppy look. For shoes, I still choose a pair of pump heels to avoid way too nerdy, well, a pump shoes always drive us to a different level I think.

Stylish Worker

I always love how high waist pants did something to my length. For 158cm tall girl like me, high waist pants is a must have items rather than a hipster pants. See, this pants bring me to a professional model look alike, haha!

I've been eyeing a sailor pants lately, and just found out I got them 2 pcs already, one is the flare pants like you see in THAT post, another one is which I wore in this post.

Well, I didn't realize that I choose a similar pants, with the same colour too. Then when my sister ask me why I do this, I keep telling her that this two pants are not the same, female desease attack :D 

I also love how this pants give me an extra stylish look during my office hour,

I can easily pair it with any tops I have. 

shades - thrifted

tops - H&M

Jade high waist wide leg pants - Pomelo

Vintage Lace

I fell in love at first sight when I saw this dress hanging on the rack. I don't think too long and just say "I'll take this." to the shop assistant.

Turns out I've been wearing this dress here and there, because it's really easy to use and don't need to be ironed, haha!

So when I'm in a rush, I just pull out this dress from my closet, put on a belt or scarf for accessories, and I'm ready to go.

My dad, a man who never comment about someone appearance, ask me where I got this dress because he loves seeing me in this simple lace dress.

He said "You look sweet in this dress, it's really pretty, I love it."

I'm a bit shock while my dad said it to me, because he really really never comment about my appearance, what I wear, what I buy, etc.
