Singapore has been surrounded by dark clouds and fat drops of rain recently. It is usually really hot and humid everyday, but currently it always rain here (even tho its still humid..) Fortunately, that day was different. It wasn't raining even though it was still cloudy as well. So we decided to take a stroll at Botanic Gardens! I already brought my camera but...i didnt put the SD card in (what a clumsy creature i am). Thank god my phone was there to save me so i can took some snaps on that late afternoon.This kind of rainy season makes me feel..gloomy i guess? but in a good way. I feel like i get inspired to write more in this weather. I also put a song that fits this gloomy weather at the end of this post.
Wish i can stay i a four seasons area. I fancy that spring to summer transition when its still chilly but you already can feel warmth of the sun. Anyway, you can see that this post is a bit different right? I just feel like making a post that tells a story or have a certain concept. Since i was sharing hows the weather in my are, what about yours? Hows the weather in your place? and what's your favourite weather along the year?
I didn't know that doing indoor shots would be this fun. Took them in the empty bedroom upstairs. It is just an ideal bedroom for me bcs most of the furniture are in pastel colours. That bedroom is really spacious! I can even roll like a buffalo endlessly! /what/ It was five in the afternoon and the lighting was almost perfect. My friend took my outfit shots and it turns out pretty good even it's indoor. So basically the hoodie, white top, and dress are from cotton on (bought them on the outlet w/ super cheap deal!) Wearing only the mini dress seems really plain, so i match with a plain top and pink hoodie. Recently i'm into combining girly dresses with casual/boyish outwear. It gives a casual vibe to the outfit without being overly feminime.
I'm currently still having a post concert depression after seeing BAP Live on earth concert last week so i pretty much just sitting in front of my laptop and fangirling over the them /pathetic fangirl life/ Anyways, i'm going to start my uni on 28th August. Feeling pretty excited yet anxious at the same time. No, i feel more anxious though. Honestly i don't know how the university life will feels like, i really have no idea and i just want to ignore it first until my holiday is over. I just want to spend my last days of holiday being a lazyass in my house, sleeping, eating, blogging, watching reality shows, streaming music shows and.. sleeping. Since being lazy person is not a sin yet, its alright to be one in a couple days right?

in love with this calming and fluttering accoustic love song <3
Take your time to appreciate how gorgeous this collection is. I just have to post this Armani 2013 couture, i was pretty much blown away when i saw it! Giorgio Armani brings out the 30s vibe with mostly sheer fabrics yet not very exposed. The things is this collection really amazed me with nude colours (i just cant resist nude colours) and beautiful embroidery details. Also i how the lace and transparent fabrics can make the dresses look really elegant but not so revealing. Starting with sleek and more casual wear, then shows old hollywood feels with the sequined dress and neck accessories, and at last bringing those evening gowns with transparent fabrics and still given the old hollywood vibe in the hairstyle and accessories. Well once again, pure awesomeness.
Saying hi in this lazy Friday. Its pretty nice just to take a rest a your own sanctuary in this lazy morning accompanied by my mac and earphone (forever alone much). I went to Bugis street a couple days ago with my best friend since elementary school and at first i managed to keep my wallet calm but..i ended up buying loads of stuff lol. I always craving for a decent cropped top because usually cropped top is not 'that cropped' for my height *sigh. So i bought this cropped floral top with a quiet cheap deal!
For the skirt, i got it on a vintage store and srsly there were many cute skirts and dresses there! I really like the skirts fabric and the seller said that it is the store owner's handmade. Things these days are slowly getting better i think. Everything must be happens for a reason right? Maybe in the future i'll know what the reason is. I'll just have to move forward and leave those burden feeling behind.
p.s: its titled destiny bcs my favorite group is making a comeback wih 'destiny' as the song title, my poor fangirl heart..
zara lace top, new look headband, maxi skirt (Korea), platform sandals (Hongkong), dreamcatcher (Bali)
Though it’s far from heaven Maybe this could be my haven.

Yes, i dyed my hair. You can see on the first pic that my hair coloris a bit different right? Actually i already dyed my hair blond-ish a day after my graduation (lol) but after 3 days i turned it back to dark brown. In the sunlight, you can still see a bit of burgundy and light brown color on my hair, it's not bad though. Well, I always ended up wearing soft colors for my daily outfit. It's just..my natural instinct maybe? (what) This maxi skirt i really perfect for this windy day and match it with my all time fav bulky yet comfy platform sandals.
When i said that things are almost too perfect, i was a bit worried. Will that perfection last? I've got the answer now. Life always has the up and down part. This life cannot always follow what we want. Maybe in some point of view, looks like that i don't have anything to worry about and it is really lucky to be me. Well, its not completely right. I have my own problems and somehow it kills me mentally. Sorry for being overly dramatic but yes, it bothers me a lot. On the other side, i've already passed some obstacle in my life.... so i think that this too shall pass.

p.s: sorry for the lame editing, i just really want to post something in this gloomy midnight
unbranded jumper, cotton on skirt, unbranded stockings, dip drops shoes, h&m bag
Do you know why the post title is Marionette? I have no particular reason though, it's a song title by Nell (my fav korean band everrr) and i just really like the title and song. I'm finally back in my super loveydovey cozy room in jakarta. I dont know, i just too in love being in my bedroom lol but in a week i'll leave it (sad much). I'll leave to Singapore permanently on Sunday. Im really curious on my university life there. I'll try to adapt on the new environment and start a whole new page!
I'm attending my prom night tomorrow but i'm still fatty fat thanks to all the tempting fishball noodles and desserts in Singapore. My prom dress is just.. not quiet satisfiying. I dont know why, i just keep worrying about my prom dress. Well, the most important part is to cherish the memories with our friends right? not just wearing a gorgeous dress and think about our body shape. Truthfully, i feel like everyone's really busy with their own things when i get back here. I mean, i really want to cherish my time with my friends, cousins, and others before i leave but most of them have their own things to do so..yeah.
Those shots above were taken right opposite the apartment i stayed in. Really love the ambience of the street, it feels really calming and quiet. Actually i was planning to visit botanic garden but my mom said i can go there later bcs it's pretty near from my house later. Definitely going there when i get back to sg!
took shots of my wardrobe in the apartment. how can you resist pastel colors?
