Yo yo yiggady yoooooo.. I'm back! Yeah, I'm waking up from the dead! I'm really really sorry for not updating my blog for ages. I feel really bad but I've been literally *cough* busy. It's such a cliche reason that I use all the time but yeah, I really was. Pretty much for job duty or blog-related (nothing included updating, unfortunately) and also... uhhhh... kept myself awake to watch World Cup matches. Hahaha.
Well, in the beginning of the month, I got an invitation from L'Oreal Paris to attend the party in Jakarta. Based on my L'Oreal review that I wrote for L'Oreal Star Blogger contest, I won The Best Visual Blog along with Glisters and Blisters as Most Favorite Star Blogger. I also hit Bandung two weeks ago to join biggest local clothing fest (I was pretty much working...) and when I got back, I need to prepare for my company's anniversary. Sounds busy, no?
Ahhh.. This pattern-play game have been my pleasure for a while. I always end up going matchy-matchy and this time I paired the polkadot blazer with my new polkadot scarf (the color is just perfection!). Not to mention, the shorts stole my heart when I saw them for the first time so I snagged it fast from local online shop.
Well, since this is my first post after a-month hiatus, please let me pack up some extra photos. Pleaseee? Hahahaha.
Have you noticed something happened with my hair? Yes, I cut it last month. Arrggghhhh. I regretted it a bit because I told the hairdresser to trim the split-ends only, but then my hair ended up TOO SHORT. Geez. It's getting a bit longer now but still, I'm devastated that my curls had gone *sobbing*.
I really love this L Esprit nail lacquer from American Apparel. I'm such a lucky bastard that I got a chance to redeem three of them from Chic Rewards. I'm thinking about snatch these darlings in every color. Best (affordable) nail polish for me so far! Quick dry and lump-free!
While I was in Jakarta, I couldn't miss a chance to meet some of fabulous Indonesian bloggers for great dinner. They are Mira of The Picnic Girl, Heidy of Fashion Maverick, Nina of Fashion Suicide, Michelle H of Miss Chelle, and Michelle K of Glisters and Blisters (check out her post for more photos but please ignore the fact that I looked very huge and chubby... Hahaha joking! =P). Can't wait for another chance to meet them again!
One more news which you probably have known (I tweeted it few weeks ago), I'm so honored that Teen Vogue chose me as their current Blogger Of The Moment! Yaaayyyy! Once I got featured on Girl Of The Week last year was very much amazing and then when I received the first interview email from them few months ago, I was completely shocked and stunned! Hahaha. I'm very graceful! It's just like a dream comes true, isn't it? If you wanna check it out, click here to read the interview =D
ps. Thanks for sending me your sweet emails/tweets while I was on hiatus. They mean a lot to me and my blog is nothing without my readers. Love ya! xx

yeah yeah you're back on track !!
ReplyDeletethe denim shorts stole my heart as well ! dont think the matchy matchy thing is that bad.. you mixed the polkadots with the floral prints on the shorts anyway.. so its still not too matchy matchy :)
anyway congrats for the many stuff you've earned (loreal, tv, american apparel thing,, etc.) ! proud to have more indonesian bloggers go international !!
I adore the shoes and shorts !
