Hey petite readers!
Yes, you. Petites. This one is for you.
All my life I've been the shortie in any group. Thank God I've made peace with it so your words will not offend me. But it's every petites dream to look taller. Mine too. Because I don't have enough money to lengthen my knee (if it's even possible, or I watch 'White Chicks' too much), I decide my outfit will do the tricks.

Hello, beautiful creatures!

I have so many things to talk about. Too many topics based on my observations in social media and in real life. For those who stumbled upon my imperfect blog here, welcome. On my previous post, I said that I want to change to be a better person. To be more positive and optimistic. But life always give me lemons. That's not a topic I want to share.

I met  my very best friends few days ago. We shared our thoughts about everything. Jobs, activities, politics. I'm currently unemployed and that's why I'm being active in blog platforms. My best friends encouraged me to be a full time fashion, beauty and lifestyle blogger. They know I love to write and they thought it should be my full time job. I want it too, trust me. But it's not as easy as it seems. You know, being a blogger means you need to have money first before making money. You think all of my outfits came free? No. I bought them with extra money I get from my writing job. And that's not enough.

That's what make it looks hard. Because you see, I don't have much money to buy every trending outfits or makeup. I don't have much money to eat brunch in an expensive, instagrammable cafe. I don't have much money to go for a vacation abroad or just outside the town. You might notice that I took my outfit pictures at the same place because basically I can't go anywhere I can. If only blogging is cheaper. Or if only I have more money to buy fancy clothes and makeup.

Sometimes it's hard for me to make friends because of my status. I love clothes. I love shopping. I love makeup. But whenever I tried to get into a certain groups, even with the same hobbies and likes, I can't get in. I can't because basically they have more money than I do. They buy more expensive clothes and makeup. They attend some fancy events. And here I am, with nothing but my messy bun, laptop and my writing skill.

It's not that I'm complaining with my life. It's just too hard for me to find a group with the same experience. But hey. I thank God for what I have. Maybe I just need to be more grateful and not easily envious with other people's life. Because somebody out there is dreaming to be in your position.

Meanwhile, here is my outfit. I'm currently and forever will love mom jeans. It's just right for me. I can't stand skinny jeans now because it's suffocating me. I always opt for baggier jeans and flowy pants.

My best friend slash bride-to-be, Cindy, took these pictures and thank God for her skill!

Well, hello!

Just updated the blog banner, how do you think? I thought about changing the name but I guess I won't because some people have already knew and familiar with the name. A friend even called me "pretty messed up" like, okay. I'm just hoping my blog name doesn't have anything to do with my life LOL.

The end of January is here, guys. Have you worked your ass off towards your goals and resolutions? Was it a good head start? Or is it a little bit late for you to start because the opportunity haven't opened yet? Either way, don't stress. Stop overthinking. Just trust your journey. Everything happens for a reason. Luck is just an alias for destiny. Trust me, because I've been there. In fact, I am there. 

I'm desperately waiting for something that hasn't come yet. I was stress. I overthought. My head was full with anxiety. But then it hits me. I realize overthinking and stressing something that I couldn't change only making me more and more stress. I'm changing to be a better person. A positive-thinker. I've been trying to eliminate negativity in my life. Although, there's something that I can't change. But overall, I'm trying to change from the overly pessimist to an optimist and positive person.

I realize everything is possible. I believe God is still with me and maybe my door hasn't opened yet. If I could change to be better, I know you guys can too. I used to thought that being depressed is cool. But not again. Being happy is cool. Be happy for yourself and for others. Don't waste a second in your life for being stressed and depressed. Find help. Talk to your family and friends. Know that everything is going to be okay. If it's a slow start for you, relax. Keep moving forward. Believe in God and trust your journey.

Hello!

Well, it's been awhile since I blogged the last time. I miss this.

It's almost February already and I haven't got the thing that I want the most. That I NEED the most right now. I'll keep it a mystery at least until I got it. One resolution for this year is I want to start doing not wishing. I've done everything to get this particular thing but maybe it's not enough. I'm a woman with faith so I believe God will never let me be in this situation for too long. I believe He sees my efforts and hears my prayers. So, I'll just wait for it.

Through 2016 I've become more mature. I mean for my style. I'll always be a kid inside (the perks of being a Gemini!). Is that weird, though? Do you like how my style is more mature? Or do you like the grunge more? I understand if you can't pick one because I can't too. There's always a place and time for the grunge and vice versa. So far, I'm enjoying this chic and simple style. Anyway, this outfit reminds me of Parisian style. Don't you think?

My head is very heavy. It won't stop thinking. Maybe it's because I was born a Gemini. One of the zodiac who's known as a thinker. I might think too much, though. And you might think I'm a fool. Because technically I know what's breaking my heart. Technically I know what's best for me, but I just can't let go. I'm that type of person who rather live with the bad. Maybe I'm the girl from the novel who loves blindly. The girl who won't leave her hometown because she cares too much. The girl who's afraid of change.

Anyway, please enjoy my outfit posts and read the review about Irwan Team Hairdesign PIK Avenue below. If you notice, I had a haircut. What do you think?

So, last Sunday I tried a haircut at Irwan Team PIK Avenue. I'm sorry I forgot to take pictures when I'm at the salon. But I hope the review will be satisfying for you guys. I was welcomed at the reception and she's very friendly. I forgot to ask her name. She let me sit and offered me drinks. First, a guy named Nurdi washed my hair. I tell you, he's really good at it! Ask for Nurdi if you want to wash your hair in Irwan Team PIK Avenue. It was cost Rp 39.000,00. And then a guy named Kei cut my hair. I ask for medium layered hair and he nailed it! I've never been this satisfied to my haircut since many years ago! The cut itself worth Rp 200.000,00 and my hair got blowed worth Rp 133.000,00.

Overall, it was satisfaction. It's been a long time since I went to the salon. Well, I only go to the salon to get a haircut. And Irwan Team PIK Avenue has given me the satisfaction I need.

SERVICE: ★★★★★

HAIR WASH: ★★★★☆

HAIRCUT: ★★★★★

BLOW: ★★★★☆

I recommend Irwan Team Hairdesign PIK Avenue to everyone because it's 4,8 out of 5!

See you another time, dearests!

Felt so casual and pick the classic white tee to pair it with blue jeans. Added those black platforms just to make it look grunge-y. I chose Kristen Stewart as my inspiration to dress that day. Except Kristen would wear sneakers instead of platforms. But yeah. This outfit is inspired by her.

Kristen Stewart is definitely my woman crush. She's strong, independent, and she's real. I love her since her big debut in Twilight Saga, up until now. I used to dress like her and pictured myself as her (please don't laugh). But I'm too curvy and she's like the most slender woman alive. She's so cool, I can die seeing her coolness. I wish there's a way I could meet her in real life. Well, that's impossible, I know. But I just wish I could. Wishing is not a sin, right?

"I feel insane every single time
I'm asked to compromise
Cause I'm afraid and stuck in my ways
And that's the way it stays
So how long did I expect love to outweigh ignorance?
By that look on your face I may have forced the scale to tip"

Almost Easy - Avenged Sevenfold

Hi again fellas!

I warn you this is going to be a long post with a bunch of pictures that I can't decide because every pictures are worth sharing. I went to this restaurant called The Playroom at Pantai Indah Kapuk to accompanied my little sister to take pictures for her book year. The place is amazing and I couldn't even resist to take pictures there.

I brought back my vintage black dress with massive skull in the center of it. I can't remember when the last time I wore this baby. The reason why I have never worn it again is because the length makes my calves look bigger and bigger. But then I think, fuck it! I can wear what I want and fuck those fat calves LOL!!

I miss how I used to dress in the past. Those goth, emo, rock feelings that will never be replaced.
