Steal Michael Clifford Style

Green Plaid // H&M

iPhone Case // Topshop

Watch // Juicy Couture

I just realize, I have a same green plaid shirt like Michael Clifford from 5 Seconds Of Summer. I decided to make this post and a little bit weird photos of my mirror selfie which I did at my office and Michael selfie which looks good. I bought this plaid shirt at H&M like 2 years ago, I guess. This is one of my favorite shirt because it's really comfy and it's so easy to style your plaid shirt. You could wear it as an outer or just wear it like Michael did. I wore size S and it's a little bit oversize on my body, sometimes I like to to bundle it just to get a different kind of style when I wear this shirt.

After all, who wore it better? Michael Clifford or me? Obviously Michael, you're the winner!

Like A Castaway

Coat // JS From

Pants // Topshop

Bag // H&M

Studded Boots // H&M

When it rains.. it's time to wear our favorite coat! I think that's my only reason to love the rainy season. I love to combine my coat with my black skinny jeans and of course a pair of boots. This is what I wore to work when the weather in Jakarta is a little bit too cold which is rarely happen anyway.

Move to another topic, a few days ago I posted a new acoustic cover of Castaway by 5 Seconds Of Summer! If you followed my social media, you might hear me talk about 5SOS over and over again in the past few weeks. I guess I'm in the mood because they just came to Jakarta and beside, in the past few years I've been really grateful for their existence because they are one of the reason that my fashion business grew pretty fast. So check out my new acoustic cover and let me know what you think.

It's no secret that I love crop top! It's fun to style it with jeans, short pants, and skirt. I bought this Burgundy pants last week and this pants become my favorite! It's a push ups jeans but it's totally comfy and I love the color. 

As I decided to go casual today, I wore it with chess crop top that I've got from my friend as a birthday present. I also didn't leave my signature style, platform boots. You could never go wrong with platform boots! I've got this platform boots from H&M and it's the most comfortable boots that I've got so far even though the heels is 11 cm. I might go casual today but classic bag could complete your style and I choose my classic Saint Laurent bag. Remember.. if you want to invest on something, if you love fashion, invest on a classic bag is the best thing that you could do and I'm sure you won't regret it.

Dress up for fall it's fun but unfortunately my country only have 2 seasons: summer and those kind of rainy day. But it's a different story when it comes to fashion and I'm stoked to styling my burgundy collection from my closet. I'm stoked to reppin' a maxi skirt from Something Borrowed that I've got from Zalora. And as always Sneakers Wedges is a must have item, especially when it comes in black and a little bit of studded. Anyway.. are you a fan of Balenciaga bag collection? If you're a fan, you might notice that this is a vintage Balenciaga bag. I'm so psyched when I got this bag because it's a vintage collection and it's Balenciaga!

Where your inspiration go? Working on a creative industry means that you need to be creative all the time. As entrepreneur, I need to grow my creativity, get a lot of ideas, and maintain a lot of things in the process. But what if I'm stuck and I don't have any idea at all? Well, we all human and I'm sure we've been through those position before whether you work as an entrepreneur, 9-5 job, or even at school. But as I learned on my 20s: Never let "Lack of Idea" drag you down. Because when you let it, you will go down to a rabbit hole. Here's what I do when I'm running out of idea:

Don't push yourself to get an idea. I've got that advance from my favorite designer, Tex Saverio when I asked him about it and I realize that's totally true. First of all, you can't sit and try to think like a maniac to get an idea for your work. Sit and stare in front of your computer wouldn't inspire you. Relax and do something that would make you feel less panic so you wouldn't freak out with the deadline.

Take your notebook to a coffee shop. Since I was in college, I like to write my thesis at a coffee shop. Since I have a home office and I'm running out of ideas, I like to bring my notebook and get my work done at a coffee shop. Observe people, a nice smell from a coffee shop, have a nice drink could give me any inspiration. 

Walk in a park. I don't do it on my working hours of course, but I do it on my spare times. Walk alone in a good weather and you have a time to think in a better mood. That will do.

Read some books and watch movies. This is also what you should do in your spare times. When I have a day off or really stuck with my ideas, book is always helps. Or browsing the internet, gosh you have google wherever you go d'uh! And I found that watching movies always give me so many inspiration. Sometimes it could be a motivation as well. I could spend hours and hours watching Judd Apatow movies. Believe me, good laugh could make your brain works better.

Put on some good music. I have my own playlist to brighten up my mood. Working is so much fun if you have some good music that you could listen. I have my favorite playlist and I just posted on Instagram, in case you want to check it out (@deeisdian). I'm sure you will find a song that you knew because my playlist is a mix of 70's, 80's, 90's and even music from the present. Yeah I know I have a weird playlist but I love it.

Look at your role model. Get inspired from your idol. That will push you to get better and also to make you work even harder to achieve what you want.

Set your goals. Write down your goals and if you're running a business, write a business plan. When I was younger I thought this isn't important but I was extremely wrong. When you set your goals and write down your plan, you will know how to do next because you know where you're about to go. You could find a way to solve your problem easier.

That's what I usually do. And if you still failed to get an idea, keep calm because there will always be a plan b, plan c until plan z. you just have to hang on and you will achieve your goals.

 

Things I Like The Most From Ant-Man

Buttoned Polka Dot Shirt // Forever 21 

Black Pants // Topshop 

Wedge-Heel Sneakers // H&M 

Black Bag // Saint Laurent

I've been waiting for Ant-Man since I've heard that Paul Rudd would be Scott Lang. I'm a fan of Paul Rudd since I saw him on Friends series (yes, my favorite series ever). So I'm really stoked to see him as a superhero. It's a holiday season and cinema isn't really friendly, I mean the queue is so long and I need to mention it that I don't have the best seat because a kid beside my ate his popcorn so loud. But let's leave all of it behind because it's worth it. The movie is as great as I was expect it. I would definitely recommend everyone to watch it especially if you're a fan of superhero. I have so many reason to say and here's the short list of what I love the most from Ant-Man Movie:

1. Paul Rudd as Scott Lang

Well this is my personal reason because I like Paul Rudd and I watched all of his movies. But I could say that he is the perfect Scott Lang. Can't imagine if someone else play this role.

2. The Jokes 

Scott Lang small joke is funny! I enjoy the scene when Hank and Hope tried to train him as Ant-Man, really entertaining. Also, Scott have 3 friends and they all really hilarious, especially Luis.. can't help myself not to laugh everytime he tell any story to his friends. Last but not least, Ant-Man could shrink and when they started to show us a human point of view (not ant point of view) it seems so riddiculous. You'll find out by yourself when you see Scott Lang fight his enemy on her daughter's room.

3. A Family Guy

It melts my heart to see Scott Lang can't see his daughter and even though he was paroled, he wants to do everything for his daughter. He put his daughter on top of her list, what a great dad. And her friendship with his ride, Ant-hony.. Dang I get emotional on a lot of scene. I also kind of person who likes to pray on the movie, I was like "Please don't die.. please don't die.." As if my wish could change the movie.

4. Small Superhero

It's pretty rare to find a tiny superhero but even though he is the size of an ant, he have a great power. And I gain more respect to ants. Maybe you won't kill any ants after you watch this movie, who knows. Because there's a lot of scene that will show you what it's like to see based from ants point of view.

5. Avengers

I'm sure you already know that this movie has something with Avengers. Even Hank talk about Stark and yes, you could find more Avengers stuff on this movie but I don't wanna give you any spoiler.

That's my short list of the reason why you need to watch Ant-Man. But seriously, I love this movie. And I can't wait to see Ant-Man appearance on Captain America: Civil War. By the way, earlier before the movie premiere, I found Ant-Man photobooth. We could choose the background before we took a photo on the green screen and of course I choose a scene with Scott Lang. I can't stop laughing to see the photo's result, cheesy photos as you could see below! We tried to touch Scott Lang and how could it seems like Scott is trying to grab my butt on the first photo? I get it, this is a riddiculous photos but I feel like I need to post it just for fun.

Once Upon A Maxi Dress

"If I had a world of my own, everything would be nonsense. Nothing would be what it is, because everything would be what it isn't" - Alice In Wonderland

Peasant Lace Back Maxi Dress // Forever 21

Wedge Heel Sneakers // H&M

Salem Bag // Elle

Maxi dress become a trend from years to years and also still a trend for Spring 2015. I have never own a maxi dress before, surprise story.. this is my grandma's maxi dress. I'm glad I have a very fashionable grandma, she even shop on Forever 21 and she could dress herself properly with any kind of clothes she wants and still looks fabulous. What I love the most from this maxi dress is the dress looks simple but it has a lace back which make this dress looks stunning and classy. Does anybody remember a movie from mid-90's called The Craft? This maxi dress kind of remind me of witchcraft era or a villain on a fairy tales. In a good way of course, because in my opinion those character in the movie always have a real good style.

Platform Boots // H&M

Hat // H&M

If you love The Flash series, you might know what I wear. Star Laboratories T-Shirt as worn by Barry Allen! I'm so psyched to wear it and added to my superhero collection. I wore the oversized T-Shirt or let's say I borrowed that shirt from Barry Allen *daydreaming all the time*. Well..with a shirt like that, who need pants anyway.

The Flash become my favorite TV series since their first episode. I have so many reason for you to fall in love with this series. First.. Grant Gustin as Barry Allen. I'm a fan since I saw him on 90210, he's also looks extremely amazing on A Mother's Nightmare, and of course he sang really good on Glee as Sebastian Smythe. Second reason, The Flash have so many amazing villain and perfect cast. You will see a lot of familiar faces if you love to watch TV series like Prison Break (that's such a hint). Oh, did I mention the plot twist? that was the best. I have a thing with TV series or book who could keep me guessing who's behind this mess? who's the real evil? and something like that. And I will love it even more if by the end of the season, none of my prediction is right. So if you haven't watch it, you better sit down in front of your tv and watch the whole first season. Let me know your comment about this series!

Style Inspiration: Louis Tomlinson Sporty Style

I want an effortless style inspiration today and sporty looks always my number one choice for an effortless style. Because the outfit would be simple but keep you in style anyway. And this time, I choose Louis Tomlinson as my style inspiration. A guy for our style inspiration, why not? Apart from Louis is my favorite One Direction member, I fell in love with his "British Rogue" Hoodie. Have you ever heard of a Berlin artist, Richie Culver? Richie has collaborated with Topman and the collection are showcasing his creativity with painting. And this British Rogue Grey Hoodie is one of the collection.

Black High-Waist // Topshop

Platform Boots // H&M

My hoodie is pretty huge on me because usually I wear petite size and now I bought a hoodie from Topman so yeah it's obvious. I just got that black pants from Topshop last week and actually the pants have so many pattern on it (oops my fault I didn't post the closer look but I'll show it later on my next post). So with my oversize hoodie, I decided to wear my favorite platform boots because if I wear sneakers I will looks like I'm drowning on my hoodie. And a platform boots would be nice in the middle of boyish looks.

Last week my friend and I went to IMAX to watched The Avengers! No matter how busy we are, my friend and I always empty our schedule to watch Marvel movies. As a Marvel fan, I'm fully satisfied with the movie. The fight, the jokes are amazing and perfect cast! Apart from Robert Downey Jr (because he's one of my favorite actor), Iron Man still my favorite. But the chemistry between Hulk and Black Widow is tearing my heart apart, they are perfect for each others. I could fangirling over them for a whole movie.

Apparently there's also a small Avengers party and we crash the games for sure. As you could see on the first photo, that's how I look when someone makes me mad and I can't pull out Thor's hammer. After all.. I'm sure Ant-man is on our 'Must watch' movie list this year because it's Marvel and Paul Rudd as a superhero? I can't wait to see how it turns out.

Are We Out Of The Woods?

Last weekend is my weekend getaway with my best friends. We went to Cibubur and the girlgang finally reunite. Actually we went to Cibubur to help our friend with her Meet N Greet project for one of Indonesian actor, Kevin Julio. Anyway, I know the weather is gonna be hot like crazy as always so it's time to take out my crop top from my closet. Styling it with my favorite tiny bow skirt and my studded boots because that's extremely comfortable. That's a Boots Wedges but I can't barely feel the wedges though.

We ate a lot of seafood for lunch (and when I said a lot, yes..that's a lot of food on our table) until it was raining. We chose the outdoor part of the restaurant and with a lot of Indonesian vibes where you sat on the floor with a small pillow to sit as we said it Angkringan. Good food and good vibe!

Last thing to end our weekend getaway, we bought a friendship ring and necklace. Is it cheesy? But we love it. It's been a long time we haven't hang out with the full team since we graduated from our college, so maybe it's the perfect time to buy a friendship ring and necklace to celebrate it. The funny thing is we're kinda forget how could we end up to be best friend when we were in college. As I remember, we started to be in the same class on the 3rd semester and we haven't that close. But here we are now!

Pastel Grunge - IFW Day 3

Unicorn Crop Tee // Forever 21

Pastel Tribal Shorts // Clover Boutique

Outer // No Label

Bag // Elle 

Ankle Boots // H&M

I didn't realize that lately I've been dress up in 90's Grunge and Pastel Grunge Vibe. I didn't do it on purpose but I really love those kind of style. I chose this crop top because it's unicorn, I mean who doesn't love unicorn? If you see it clearly, my crop top say "I Liked Unicorns Before It Was Cool." And finally I had a chance to wear my pastel tribal shorts, I'm sure I haven't wear it anywhere since I bought it on the local boutique in Kemang. Also, I found that purple outer in the back of my closet and It's like finding a treasure! One thing that I learned the most from Fashion Week and any kind of Fashion Show in the past few years is tight clothes making me uncomfortable during the event. Because I have to snap a lot of pictures and jumping from side to side on the event, bodycon is make me hard to move. That's why lately I decide to wear all kind of comfortable clothes. Don't mention the heels, I'm totally find running with 13 inch heels because I'm so tiny.

How To Survive The Jinx Festival

Almost done with the first month of 2015. To be honest, this is not my favorite month because January turns out to be a jinx. So I'm pretty glad that January is almost over and I'm gonna focus on my resolutions. Have you ever watch "Alexander and The Terrible, Horrible, No Good, Very Bad Day" movie? I love that movie because my January could really relate to that movie. Yes we have those terrible day but so what? You have a chance to make your day better and even on your worst day, you could always find a very small things which could make you cheer up. That's why if life gives you a lemon, baked a lemon cupcake!

But how to survive from the terrible, horrible, no good, very bad day? This is my survival kit for January and I hope these could help you to survive with those kind of day.

1. Go Crying While Listening To Your Favorite Music Out Loud
I rarely cry, especially in front of anyone. But no matter how tough you are, it's okay to cry alone in your room because as soon you let it out, you will feel that actually your failure on your bad day is not that bad. And I'm sure music is the best way to make you feel better. Try listen to Drown by Bring Me The Horizon or Save Me by Avenged Sevenfold. Those songs always on my playlist and it always make me feel better. 

2. Surfing on The Internet and Find Something Funny
This is totally work! Once you find a bunch of funny post, you will forget that you have a terrible day. I suggest you to see 9gag, Buzzfeed, and Tumblr.

3. Have A Coffee and Sweet Dessert Alone
Why alone? Because when you're mad or sad, that means world doesn't treat you right. And who's gonna treat you right is yourself. Go to a coffee shop or cafe alone and have your favorite drink and dessert.

4. Movie Time
You could go to a cinema alone and have a quality time because you're alone, nobody could piss you off even more and you could pick any movie plus the popcorn is all yours. Or you could watch your favorite tv series. Re-watch Friends series many times and I'm sure you will feel better

I could give you more and more advice but it would be too long. But I was thinking, do you ever think that your style is depend with your mood? I feel like yes, I dress up depending on my mood. If I'm in a bad mood, I just go out with a sweater, black jeans, and sneakers. And when I'm really in the good mood, I spend more time to choose what I would wear before I go out. I remember the first day on January, I tried to dress up and it turns out a little bit different than the way I usually dress up.
Match my crop top collection with a vintage maxi in bloody red color. It surprise myself because I like it.

Busy Weekend With Foxity Clothing

It seems like I've been on the writing hiatus and it's good to be back. There's a lot of things I want to share with you all in the past few weeks (or month?). Last month, my online store, Foxity Clothing pop up and got a booth to meet our lovely customers in person at Cecilia's Cafe, Kemang. When most of people in Jakarta are finished or even start to partying at DWP, my friend and I really busy with our work for a weekend. My mom also help us on the booth and that was fun.
As some of you might know that Foxity Clothing selling some stuff such as Handmade T-shirt (we paint it on the Tees), Handmade Totebag, Scrapbook Journal, Original Branded Clothes with affordable price, and we also a book retailer (Import Books & Magazine). We are usually selling our collection online from our Twitter and we will launch our fanpage next month, so it would be easier for you to see the collection and to shop, like the fanpage here (we're still in progress).

 VNC heels & sandals, New Look shoes

And that's a wrap! Selfie or let's say wefie for the whole tenant before we pack our bags and go home.

Thank you for the people who stop by and shop in our booth. If you missed a chance to come, you could still have our collection by visiting our Twitter.

Anyway, I haven't talk about outfit for today! Because I know that day is gonna be a hot day and I'm sure hell is blow their fire to Jakarta because it's super hot. I chose to wear a top with sleeves to cover myself from the sunlight (yes, I'm not really into the sun but the sun when I'm on the beach is an exception) but this top isn't make me sweaty because the fabric is totally friendly. A mix it with a short pants because once again, yes the weather is hot but that doesn't stop me to wear dark colors. A fedora because I rest my hair for a crazy colors for a few week and I feel weird to see my own hair in a dark colors so let the fedora do his job. One last item is boots wedges, I love boots and I need to be a little bit more taller so this item is a must. And I'm glad I found nice spot to take some pictures at Cecilia's Cafe on the second floor. Photo taken by my best friend Friska.

Doraemon Stand By Me Premiere

First of all, this is a super late post. Been really busy with a lot of project lately. so sorry! So, a few weeks ago (Wednesday, December 3rd) I was invited by Kartu Pos Indonesia to Doraemon Stand By Me Premiere at Blitz Megaplex. Super stoked to see the movie because I'm a huge fan of Doraemon since I was a kid, I mean who doesn't? I know this movie would tear my heart apart because a few months ago I watched the trailer and it makes me cry like a baby. So I believe the movie would make me crying like a lunatic.

As an early Mother's Day present from me, I gave the other invitation for my mom because she also exciting for this movie. And yes, that's us goofy-ing with Doraemon mask. With a huge bucket of popcorn we enter the studio on 7pm, no expectation beside a great movie until the host tell us that they are inviting someone special and he's all the way from Japan. Who is he? And then Nobita appeared, the real Nobita and everyone was like whooooa. He looks sad because his friend couldn't come but a few minutes later...... Doraemon came in and everyone was like aaaaw!!! Doraemon looks super cute with his short leg, litterally die by their cuteness and Doraemon could blink his eyes. Couldn't take a perfect picture because the studio is too dark but here's the pic. And before the movie start it, the host took a photo while all the audience put Doraemon mask on their face, hilarious and fun.

Before I watch the movie I already prepare a box of tissue, in case I cried a lot. And I was right, I cried a lot..can't stop crying! Even a man beside me cried a lot. One thing for sure, when Doraemon have to leave Nobita, it was remind me of my cat. He passed away 11 months ago and trust me, it is really hurt to lost especially if you live with your pet for 13 years. Maybe that's why I can't stop crying when I watched the movie. After all, really love this movie because we could see a lot of scenes from the past (series and comic), how Nobita fight for his love, Shizuka, but the most incredible thing is the friendship between Doraemon and Nobita. Love the ending, to be honest I'm still crying until the credit titled appeared on the screen hahaha. Love the soundtrack too, Himawari No Yakusoku by Motohiro Hata.

Well, you still have a time to watch it on the theatre. Don't miss a chance! I came home with a lot of free Doraemon Merchandise. Great to be there at the premiere.
