A Trip To Jakarta Culinary Passport

Last weekend, my friend and I visited Jakarta Culinary Passport at Grand Indonesia. We love food, so we're exciting for this event. Looking forward for lunch but apparently, the crowd is just too hectic. Not surprise at all because there's a lot of interesting tenant on this event, so we found a very long queue on every booth and most of the tenant are running out of food. At 7pm we could see a lot of "Sold Out" Sign on their booth. Wow! Seems like people are really enthusiast with any nice food in here.

I was planning to get an ice cream but the queue line is look like a train and when I move to another ice cream tenant, they already sold out. It makes my friend and I just go round and round from booth to booth. Until finally, we decide to stop by at Chickville Booth. Happy to see that they're selling crispy dory, because I'm a pescetarian. And guess what? I'm lucky enough to got the very last Cripsy Dory before they're sold out. Fyi it taste really good, I chose Pizza flavour and I like it. My friend order a Crispy Chicken and have to wait for 40 minutes because they receive so many orders and we decide to wait. While we're waiting, we're sitting on the chair near the entry and suddenly my friend poke me because there's 2 guys doing an attraction. Actually, I thought they're doing an attraction and my friend thought that they're doing a "Bro" thing meanwhile they're pushing each others and finally they're punching each others. OH, They're fighting!! Somebody tried to stop the fight and they finally ended the fight with a lot of curse. I don't know what they're fighting for but because this is a culinary event, they might fighting for food (what??). And we felt like we have a VIP sit to witness those things. After all, I wish I could taste more food from this event but we're kinda give up with the queue and at the moment our tummy couldn't receive more food. But we're really having fun, for sure.

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.

Go Back To Purple

 

 Change my hair colors again even though I really love my previous hair color, Turquoise but I decided to go back to purple for Halloween. It's been 4 years I haven't put any darker colors for my hair and I'm changing my hair a lot from bloody red, Green until Turquoise. Anyway, yes I'm huge fan of Topshop. Again and again I'm wearing this brand. Every season they have a very nice collection and perfect for the street style. To be honest that was my old long sleeves from Topshop, I found it in my closet and think about mix and match it with some new stuff.

That day, I'm visiting Boys Market at Gandaria City. Even though I'm a girl but I'm kinda curious about this market. There's a lot of local tenant, selling boys stuff of course. I found Edward Scissorhands tank top and I wish I could buy it but the size is too big for me (of course, it's a boy size). So many interesting stuff to see, boys would love it.

Outfit Of The Trunk Show Day

Topshop dress, Yves Saint Laurent bag, New Look shoes, Forever 21 Leather Jacket

Still from Fashion Lab opening party. Me..wearing a girly dress is rarely happen but I wore it though for this event. Because the dress code is edgy & contemporary, I added a leather jacket plus 13cm heels with a lot of studded around it, nailed it or not?. But anyway I got featured on weare.zocko.com (I took the first picture from their website). Apart from the trunk show, there's an Italian Theme on Pacific Place at the moment and I love that spot so I took a moment to take a photo for a minute. It's like a little cute cafe in Italy.

Found this photo from Galeries Lafayette's Twitter, spotted myself at the queue of Fashion Lab opening party. That was a long line and people seems really exciting about this event, cause I'm psyched for this trunk show. One thing that I haven't post from this event is a SELFIE. Well, nowadays it seems like it's a must thing to do in any event, so here's a selfie of Tex Saverio and I.

My Favorite Looks From Fashion Lab Opening Party

Attending Fashion Lab "Indonesian Young Designers Put Forward" Opening Party at Galeries Lafayette, Jakarta. Galeries Lafayette collaborating with Indonesian Fashion Forward to intruduce the must seen designers of the moment. It was amazing to see a lot of lovely collection by so many Indonesian designer such as Tex Saverio, Toton, Patrick Owen, Yosafat Dwi Kurniawan, Major Minor, Fbudi, Gloria Agatha, Monstore, and Monday to Sunday. The trunk show is major! And great to see it in the front row so I could get a better look to those beautiful clothes. I tried to make a list of which one is my favorite, it's hard because all of it are beautiful but here's my favorite looks from Fashion Lab Opening Party.

Collection by one of my favorite designer Tex Saverio. Extremely wonderful as always. So elegant and beautiful. When I saw his collection, all I could think is 'I should have that clothes in my closet or something would really go wrong' cause these collection is to die for. These are definitely my favorite looks from this event. But apart from these I still have a lot of favorite looks from other designers, check them out!

Love this matching top and skirt from Major Minor. Most of their collection using black and white combination, perfect color combination for any occasion.

Monstore collection are rad. Kind of clothes that I would wear and it's gonna be an awesome street style. 

Amazing black dress by Fbudi. I'm easy to fall in love with black dress and this one is simple but beautiful at the same time. It's major!

I want that Penguins skirt by Gloria Agatha. Her collection involve many penguins and that's so cute. This is one of my favorite from her collection.

This is very unique, design by Patrick Owen. when I saw his design, all I could think is Bill Kaulitz from Tokio Hotel. That looks is perfect for Bill Kaulitz, unique style and definitely would be great for his next tour. Wish I could styles him with those outfit.

That's some of my favorite! By the way,  Before I end this post, after many years I adore this amazing designer, I finally had a chance to meet Tex Saverio in person. Such a talented and super humble guy. This is definitely made my day.

Green is Bright Enough For Brightspot

 

 This is the kind of Fashion event that you wouldn't miss, Brightspot Market! They are back with Pop Up Mall as their concept and held at The Space, Senayan City. There's a lot of great brand right here, from fashion to food & beverage. Caught many booth from Local to International designers and retailers.
 I made it to the very last day and that was super crowded, could hardly move when we enter the venue. It felt like Jakarta's traffic jam but with no vehicle around but that was fun though. Seems like the hot weather doesn't make people to stop going to this event, it's full AC but with the crowd like that, sweat are all over our faces.

Hit The Local Fest: Creative Festival

Had a blast on Local Fest which is held at Grand Indonesia a few weeks ago. Fully satisfied because there's 2 areas: Fashion Area & Food Area. Two things I love the most in one place so yes I'm having fun. Spot a lot of nice stuff but this time I spent more time on the Food & Beverage Area. Maybe because I came with an empty stomach but hey, I'm never not hungry anyway. I bought a very delicious fried mushroom and the mushroom booth is pretty crowded, no wonder because that was really yummy. For the dessert as you could see above, my favorite one: Coconut Ice cream inside the real coconut with so many toppings on it. I also bought Hongkong street snack but too bad I didn't take a picture of it because they went straight to my tummy.

Enough with the food talk, I found an interesting spot on this event: Retro Vibe! There's a lot of black frames and a vintage vespa plus a huge painting of "Saya Nyuci Sambil Nyanyi" that's hilarious, by the way..that's a quote from 1953. How cool is that?

Gogirl Passion Expo 2014

Always exciting for a fashion event. This time is for GoGirl Passion Expo 2014! Held at The Hall, Senayan City. As always I went with my fashion partner in crime, Friska. So many great local brand and their booth are really crowded with the people. It's kinda hard to jump into the booth because so many people are so exciting to grab their favorite stuff. We got so many free stuff and there's also a free photobooth! What I really love the most from this event is their concept which is 'Passion' and I love their decoration. Because it's Gogirl event (one of the most famous magazine in Indonesia), I think the theme and decoration totally describe the magazine itself. Apart from Fashion, they also got so many food & beverage booth. Yes, you could always find me there because I love food so much!

When I'm wondering around the event, I found this cute booth selling some unique toys. I'm always into toys, forget your age because toys makes people happy, right?

Dare to sit on the dream job's seat? That's what I'm talking about earlier, the decoration! Love all of it and fall in love with those colors. Make me thing to put more frame on my house. And look at the inspiring quotes behind the desk: "Passion Over Obsession" maybe those would bring you to be Editor in Chief or any kind of dream job that you're obsessed for years.

Last but not least, I'm featured on Gogirl articles from this event about the street style! You might want to see the articles so here ya go: Street Style at Gogirl Passion Expo
