The tank top is cut-off from a men t-shirt. I just suddenly fell in love when I saw the envelope print on it. Too cute! But I thought it would look better in tank top so I cut the neckline and the sleeves. And I got the blazer just for $3 and I studded it myself (while I was working! LOL). Not bad, eh? I just need new heels. I'm sick of mine now. Hahahaha.

Well well well... It's time to share some stories here. Ha. I know I suck at posting. It's been a couple weeks since I wrote my last post. But, during this almost Lebaran season, the store is getting very crowded (not really different than a traditional market in the morning, seriously) and I usually pass out on my bed after work. Or if I ain't too lazy (and tired!), I sit my ass in front of my compie for couple hours. Okay okay okay... there are few things I want to tell you, guys!

First, I won Fashion Tag of the Month (August) on Gogirl! Magazine! Yaaaay. I can't lie, the prize is bewitched for me! Yumm. Oh... and this is the winning look. Hahahaha. I think it's not my best look so I was kinda surprised when my friend texted me and she said I won! Wheeeeeeeee.

Second, still related to Gogirl! Magazine, I've been asked by Mora to be a guest contributor for fashion tips. Okay, she asked me like months ago but (sorry, Mora) I'm too busy and my dead computer didn't help A FUCKIN LOT so I just finished them like a month ago and sent them to Mora and I still owe four more tips to Mora. Whopsieeee. I promise I'll finish the rest soon =]

Third, I got this fabulous American Apparel cycle short from Chictopia's chic rewards. Horaaaaah. Who doesn't want this for free? Lucky me, my friends. Hahaha. That was my first time to redeem the reward and wow... very fast shipping by FedEx, I must say! Only two weeks since I redemeed it. Here it is:

Fourth, I ordered a sequin dress and leather pants from ebay and it had arrived! I'm so happy. I just need my dad to pick them up at post office. Hehe. I was a bit paranoid about my ebay items because my last purchases took two months to arrive! And with a big help from my friend! He has an acquaintance in Indonesian's customs and he helped me to track my stuffs. Thanks, God. But my friend couldn't help me this time so I just hoped it would arrive soon and YES!!! Can't wait to wear the pants on winter (the coolest language for Indonesian rainy season, duh!).

Okay, I've written too much. Thanks for reading and see you on next post (which is I don't know when. Whoopeeee.)

I found this illustration on Chictopia's twitter as its background image:

That's me on bottom left alongside with fashionispoison, camerafilmroll, aranell, inKARLcerating (his drawing is totally cute!), and Haylilly.

And also this collages (me again on the bottom left!) alongside with Akiriricky, TheStylishWanderer, classytrash, calivintage, and MSroboto =D

And if you guys are members of Chictopia, you probably notice the same drawing like the first above as a banner on your Chictopia's home page, like this:

Well then, I direct messaged Chictopia through twitter and asked if I could get this drawing and Lily Chung from Chictopia sent me this larger version of my personal illustration for me to use anywhere I'd like. Yaaayyyy!

Awww.. Totally cool drawing, rite? She drew the details so freakin well. Megathanks to Erin L. who made this fabulous illustration for the style icons this month!! I love this sooooo much! x]

Today, I woke up and switched my computer on and what did I find?!

click for bigger pictures =]

I become a June style icon of Chictopia xD xD xD

OMG OMG OMG OMG OMG! I'm so happy! I just can't believe it! Seriously. Thanks to all the people on Chictopia who are always leaving me the nicest comments, adding me as your friends, and adding me as your favorites! I really really appreciate all of this. Being a style icon is such an honor to me. I always need your support, guys. Thank you so much for everything =D

Also, congrats for fashionispoison, inKARLcerating, Haylilly, aranell, and camerafilmroll for being June style icons too. They are awesome and have amazing styles =]]

Anyway, this is what I wore yesterday. I was too lazy to dress up so I wore my all-time fave leather jacket too much. Haha. This Black Label Society vintage-look tee is very comfortable. The cutting is very awesome. Oh! And I accidentally made two (yes, two!) tiny holes when my cigarette fell down to my knee. Oh great! This is my fave tights and I think I have to buy one more (-__-)

Oh another good news. I have another side-job! My boss asked me to be a stylist for her clothing company beside doing my daily job as a shopkeeper. The rules are gotta be choosing clothes from the store (my work place), mix and match em, do some photo shoot, and tadaaaa.. the lookbook is done! She knew me very well about my passion in fashion so she thinks I'll be happy to do this. Are you kidding me? I'm soooo EXCITED!!! xD

ps. I currently addict to avocado juice. Idk why. Hahaha =P

Hey guys, I'm very excited to tell you that I've been asked by Connie to be a guest blogger for EverybodyIsUgly of Chictopia and wrote some tips about 'How to keep your fashion life on budget'. Hahaha yeah, that's so meeeeh. You can catch it up over HEREEEEEEEEEE =D

Here's a note from Connie:

There are some times when I’m wholly unqualified to write about fashion. And right now, as I’m festering away in a library in a hoodie and jersey pants trying to keep myself from destroying my computer in a fit of finals-induced rage, I feel like the best thing to do is to hand the spotlight over to the lovely Thika (aka MarlaSinger) for today. BRB. Going to cry over my notes now.

xoConnie

Please check the rest of it over HEREEEEEEEEEEE =]]

I only gave her 3 pics about the topic so in case if you want to see more pics, you can see them below:
