Leather Dates


"As people grow up, they realise it becomes less important to have more friends, and more important to have real ones." - Laguna Beach

Recently, I had a proper-planned lunch with my closest friend, Melly. We've been talking much about spending our whole day together because we never thought an idea of "dating" create some excitement, even though it just a regular hang-out. 
It was a date, a best-friends date and we wore the same costume-theme for this occasion and the day was spent with only two of us.

The clock ticked exactly at 1 p.m. and both of us are right on time at a place that we've been discussing a week before. It was Moovina, Le Jardin & Mezzanine.

The moment we entered the restaurant, two waiters came over and accompanied us to the provided tables."Here's the menu. The crown-taged foods are recommended by our chefs", explained one of the waiter in a black suit. "One Blanquette De Veau please." "and hmm.. Encournet Sauté?" Right after the waiter ordered our main courses, we took several selfies and pictures of ourselves (alone). 

"I think leather gives charisma to the wearer", I stated. We've been for hours brain-storming and exchanging ideas to pick the right theme for this special day, and finally the decision was made. So, what do you think?






ME: A black leather jacket with shoulder pad and quilted details, matched with a black lace tank and a skinny lambskin green-moss pants.




MELLY: A monotone leather jacket with a white sheer tank and a white leather shorts



One whole day was spent gratefully. We went to a tea shop and some store brands too after lunch, indeed we're very happy that our plan worked successfully

Incoming Summer

Spring has sprung and summer is getting closer. Sweet and pastel florals will soon be placed with solid bright hue. Tanks and crops will dominated the market, not to forget flashing makeups are stepping the trend.

June surely the right month to transform the soft and flower-scented into a daring-bold closet. No doubt, fashion people need to be ready before the season starts. However, some may not able neither motivated to go to the Mall and visit store by store, in order to find the desired items. Therefore, online-shops are very helpful in this kind of situation. One of them is Dskon.com. This web-store offers wide merchandise ranges, including apparel, skin care, and makeup.



What make this website different from the others? It gives great deals (in terms of price and promotions) to its customer. There are many local to international labels available here. Fashion categories, such as NikicioZalora, Toms, Paris Hilton, Mango, Romwe, and Urban Outfittersbeauty products, such as The Face Shop, Ori Flame, and many more are able to be purchased.

I've been looking around on this website and it's really tempting. Here I can find some Sephora products from My Lovely Sister store, such as Urban Decay Naked 1 & 2 Palette. Oh, and I highly recommend you to purchase NYX items here because the price is much cheaper compared to the official store in Jakarta.



I also looked up on the fashion section and I mostly add Urban Outfitters items to my cart! As you know, the brand has many interesting and unique items, from seasonal book journals to balloon floats (everyone wants to take a deep nap above the swimming pool, right?). I was hooked up with the summer edition pieces, the items are very random and creative, yet worth it to spend on. 



Recommended Offer: Privilege of Dskon.com member = Additional 20% for Romwe label.

For the payment transaction, you can directly access it from each Dskon.com-connected website. It can be via Pay-Pal or Local Bank Transfer.

Hope you guys are interested with this group buying website as much as I do!

Beauty Fair: Paula's Choice

Last weekend, (let's put the Friday in), a beauty fair exhibition was held at PX Pavilion. There are variety of skin care to beauty products offered, some of them are still barely known by the publics (cause they only sell it via online and the still have few loyal customers) and the rest are pretty noticeable, such as Wet & Wild, NYX, and The Balm.




There's a small stage at the center of the hall used for makeup demo and seminar. The invited guests (for each session) will be pleasantly seated on the chairs provided. I and my friend are asked to join one of the sessions from Paula's Choice. This US-based brand is not yet boomed in the market, however the products quality is as good as the other famous skincare brands.





The label has a collaboration with Indonesian makeup artist, Clerence Victoria. So, instead of full-preech about the skin care brand, there's a makeup demo and a model (of course the one who's going to be make-up-ed). Let's see:

Victoria was explaining the types, techniques, and usages of brushes.

After and Before look - the model (half - half)


Victoria was filling the model's eyebrow with gel brow.


Victoria was applying black eyeshadow and then blend it outwards & inwards to make it less dark.

Victoria was applying black eyeliner gel above the model's lash line and glued fake lash on it.


After moisturising the model's face with Paula's Choice moisturiser and serum, the clean face is ready to be filled with powder, highlighter, and bronzer.

And this was the final look


So, what do you think?
