Dress Up For NYC and Val Day

China Town Jakarta

This year Chinese New Year celebration is close with Valentine day. I’m pretty sure some of you are rushing to buy new clothes right now. And since I’m not celebrating these two big occasions so old dress should be sufficient enough. Naturally, if I am a Chinese descendant, old dress is totally forbidden. New dress on the new year considered to bring you good luck and drive away evil spirit. Not making any sense? Well, we all should learn about old culture before waving that as a nonsense. In the old days, most Chinese are farmer which only enjoy the harvest once or 2-3 times a year. All the year, they saves for the best and that is when they are celebrating new year. Not like nowadays where we are happy to purchase things and suffer later for paying the installment (this is me telling a true story *SMILE*).

Knock off bomber jacket without any brand attached on it

I admit, once in a while ages ago I used to buy knock off items. I bought it simply because I like the model, not realizing there is THE ORIGINAL ITEM. Then, I started to learn more about branded items and how oh my gosh there are many of them sold a lot cheaper. That because those cheaper items are not the original. But, you know… Often we think who cares? We loves the model, we want to keep up with the trend, we want to be acknowledged and we simply get bored with our old fashion items.

Outfit for Weight Gainner

Me on Christmas Eve at Starbuck Metropole 2017
Having too much fun during Christmas holiday

Yeah, what can I say… I gain weight… big time near the end of year 2017. Probably because I received more invitation and free vouchers so obviously I was enjoying my life as blogger. A bit too much I am afraid and now I can’t wear most of my clothes. They are too tight and others are no longer fit. Terrifying! But anyway, life goes on. There is no point dwell in the past as it has happened. So, aside that I have to discipline myself on a strict diet then I have to take notes on my outfit.
