Warm Color Block

Hi everyone! I'm really sorry for being such a bad blogger due to lack of updates lately, I've been kinda occupied with a hectic campus life & job... Anyway, finally I can post a look! And to be honest actually this look was taken in January hehe...

I already told you that I'm a big fan of colorblock, so here's another one: Warm Color Block. Why I describe this as "Warm"? Because it's a autumnal color palette whose tone is warmer than the spring/summer color. Fyi, it's not a skirt: it's a pant-skirt (a pants which actually looks like a skirt) - and it's belong to my grandmother hehehe... And I also wear the camel blazer that I already worn in my previous look: Camel & Elephants ~

MY FIRST WEEK IN WHATIWEAR!

In this photo (left to right): Kristel, Anaztasia, Me, Parker, Bob, & Wenny

As I told you before, I've been busy due to my 2 weeks internship (and after this 2 weeks, it's not considered as internship anymore) in WhatIWear: THIS IS MY FIRST WEEK AT THE OFFICE! These pics was taken last Saturday, by Ci Wenny's camera when we have the weekly meeting & the dresscode was 80's (so don't get surprised to see our hilarious outfit! Haha...)

What I'm doing is as a Social Media Copywriter. What is the jobdesk?  Basically, I tweet & post anything about WhatIWear & other related things in Social Medias like Facebook too. My job is to post 24 tweets per day, make sure that every hour there's one tweet @whatiwear & post some blog entry in WhatIWear Facebook Page. It's an interesting job because we all know the power of social media nowadays, don't we?

I've been so honored to filled this position & it's such a privilege for me! In addition, the job is related to what I study in college, Communication with the Media Studies concentration.

And, I'm so grateful to meet & work with such a wonderful & talented people in this small yet solid team!

So, I won't talk too much, & all I just want to say is THANKYOU GOD FOR THIS OPPORTUNITY!!

my 80's wardrobe...

Denim, Polka, Red & NEW VINTAGE SHADES!

Sorry for lack of post guys, I've been kinda busy right now. In fact, now I'm in internship at WhatIWear for 2 weeks as a Social Media Copywriter! Later I will post about this...

As the title says, I'm wearing a denim jacket, polkadot blouse, red suede skirt, & a NEW VINTAGE SHADE! I bought this unique shade at MargoCity Depok Mall, just at a random store for only IDR 50000. The glasses there can be a mirror! You can see yourself mirrored on the glasses haha!

I cannot say pretty much, because I'm blogging at the office! So apparently this post will be dominated by pics only... ;)

Casual Daily Style: Camel & Elephants~

Hello hello precious people! How was saturday night? Forever alone? Haha you got a friend, well le me just being forever alone in front of my laptop, blogging like a boss >> Forever Alone Lvl: Blogger LOL :P

Back with some outfit post, this time I would like to present my casual daily style that I have worn to campus: Camel & Elephants. Why this title? Because I'm wearing a camel blazer with an elephants-patterned tank. That's why :)

And I also wear the it burgundy pants to spice up the look, make it looks like color-blocking; well it is indeed. Yup, I always like the idea of colorblock, whether it's bright, warm, or pastel colors. Here's some warm & more autumnal colorblock: camel color with burgundy. It is more autumnal then my previous look. (Green & Red)

And,

Y U NO WEAR COLORBLOCK & PATTERNED OUTFIT TO CAMPUS?!?

Your daily campus or college outfit will be more fascinating by wearing colorblock & patterned outfit; instead of basic t-shirt and jeans (well, but this is up to you though hehe).

I personally love this camel blazer for its cutting & clean cut shape plus the comfy & still breezy material; it's not that hot to wear this even in such a sunny city like Jakarta or Depok. And I know, this is information may bore you because again, this blazer is my mother's. Mother of God, digging my mom's closet is like treasure hunting and you will always find a new treasure :D

Oh and by the way, about the shoes, it's always more convenient to wear flats isn't it? Especially to go to campus. So wear a loafer! I just adore this kind of shoes so much, more specific the moccasin one. It's classy, and won't be outdated. I bought this dark brown moccasin loafer at Charles & Keith.

Pre-Fall 2012 Trends Spotlight #1

I've been a huge fan of pre-fall season runway shows. Why? Because I love fall/winter season in more casual and wearable way. I love layering, fall colors, coats, jackets, and so on; but not as "heavy" as the fall runway. Plus, usually pre-fall shows could be our source for daily outfit. Surely, the recent Pre-Fall 2012 Shows have fulfilled all of these expectation. I've been checking out almost all of pre-fall 2012 shows, and finally summarize some of the trends which caught my attention. These are the trends:

1) BOYISH SHORTS

From left to right: Alexander Wang, Prabal Gurung, Albino, Tibi

Try to wear a not-so-mini boyish shorts with a boyish shirt too, pattern jacket or animal prints top. Add a brogues shoes, loafer, or black boots to rock the look.

2) Color Combination: GREEN & BLUE

From left to right: Louis Vuitton, J.W. Anderson, Kenzo, Preen.

Combine navy or electric blue with anything with emerald green. For example, a navy blue sweater with green pants, or wear green sweater underneath a blue turtleneck tank, etc.

3) FALL COLORBLOCK

From left to right: Clements Ribeiro, Emilio Pucci, Opening Ceremony, Pringle of Scotland.

The color palettes are navy blue, emerald green (light or dark), burgundy red, warm cobalt blue, mustard yellow, plum purple, and brown. 

4) GRAPHIC SWEATER

From left to right: Diesel Black Gold, Derek Lam, Francesco Scognamiglio, 3.1 Phillip Lim.

Wear a shirt underneath the sweater, add a leather pants/white pants or pencil midi skirt/leather skirt for a more feminine look. Basically, you can wear sweater with anything!

5) Pattern Pants + Top Layerings

From left to right: Anne Valérie Hash, Jonathan Saunders, Matthew Williamson, Derek Lam, Pringle of Scotland.

Fall season is about layering, and it will be more fun to wear pattern pants! Wear your pattern pants with layering: a shirt with a jacket/coat. Or you can experiment the layering with more clothes, as seen in Jonathan Saunders & Pringle of Scotland.

There will be more trends to post! Wait patiently :)
