Style in a Movie: Anne Hathaway (One Day)


Since I have a huge interest in movies, I would like to relate it with style and fashion... So "Style in a Movie" will basically capture any kind of stylish moments in movie that I recently watched...

Just few days ago, I watched "One Day" (2011) starring Anne Hathaway & Jim Sturgess. Such a nice romantic movie, indeed, with good looking actors. But the thing that I want to emphasize is Anne's costume in this movie. For me, it's kinda interesting because we can see a style transformation of Emma Morley's (played by Anne Hathaway) style according to the era. This movie depicted a love story within a long range of time (20 years), which has passed many fashion and style era. You can see how Emma is transforming from a geeky college student to a posh-chic-clean cut lady...

 I personally love this geeky style... Love the combination of jeans jacket, vintage-y & feminine dress plus the black socks & DocMart gave some twist to the style... We can call this style geek & grungy... The glasses added the geeky feel too



One of the most romantic scene, where Emma & Dexter have to say goodbye each other after the graduation day...


And this scene is when Emma had grown up and had a very nerd & geeky boyfriend; also she became a teacher... (Below)
The style is more mature yet still a lil bit geeky... We can see floral pattern here, probably the hippie movement effect.



(Below) This scene is taken when Emma & Dexter both attended their college friend's wedding. Emma was getting more mature, and she looked so pretty chic in this cheongsam dress.


And the style keeps transforming...
This scene is when Emma has become a really grown-up lady, when she became a famous writer and live in Paris... Parisian chic lady-like style has influenced Emma's style, I think... And especially the pixie haircut added the chicness & posh-feel...

Such a lady-like look with the cute blouse & pencil midi skirt.. Also love the color combination of light blue & soft-mint green. Lady like & tres chic!

Hell yeah, Parisian chic! Nice shades you got there...



(Above) Still taken at Paris, I can say that this is the best dress! It goes perfectly with the shades & haircut, plus with a nice blue navy color (and it matches Dexter's outfit as well). The dress delivers a nice 50s ladylike look, with an emphasize on the waist & flare A-line bottom. Also like the small vintage leather sling-back purse (below).


I personally love this captured scene. So romantic with beautiful lighting & scenery.♥


Voila! That's a wrap!
Finally, this is the movie poster... IDK why but I like it so much. Love the color & especially love the kissing ♥! Haha :3 
If you ask me how much is the rating of this movie, I would give 7 from 10. The beginning part wasn't that good, but I start to feel the grip in the middle until the end... I have to say (no this is not a spoiler, relax haha) that the story kinda sad & tragic, you will see a twist at the end.
Last word is, HAPPY WATCHING! :D

All Things Vintage & Beautiful


Hell-o everyone!
This time, as the title says, I wear all things vintage. The blouse & the skirt both I bought at thrift store...
I personally love the skirt for its pretty & delicate flower patterns on it.
And to add some twist I wear the black bowler hat & black boots...

About the photo, I really love this photo (above)! The colors & light are surreal & so beautiful! Thanks to Putri Estiani (http://quirkitout.blogspot.com/) again for taking these great photos!
These photo was taken at Faculty of Engineering, University of Indonesia... Love the all green-green grass scenery!


(Above) Behind the scene... (Below) The details of the flower pattern on my skirt... Pretty, isn't it? :D




Love the surreal scenery & colors :))

Warm & Vintage Sweater








Hello again :)

In this new look I wear a vintage sweater, white shirt underneath the sweater, the most favorite burgundy pants, white shocks, T-Bar black pump, and vintage brown leather bag.

The sweater was bought from Passer Baroe, one of the most heavenly cheap shopping place in Jakarta. On the other hand, the vintage bag was bought from Bugis Market in Singapore, for only SGD 15...

I really love this sweater for its graphic is so cute, unique, and "vintage-y". Unfortunately, the weather here isn't friendly enough, so I rarely wear this sweater....

This photo was taken by Putri Estiani (Putche) still in my campus, University of Indonesia. Here's a little bit scenery of the photoshoot's place:


And these are the details of the bag & shoes:

COLORBLOCK for my 20th Birthday! ♥






HI EVERYONE! TODAY IS MY 20TH BIRTHDAY!! YEAY! :D
In this special time, I wear something special for me too. I really like the color-blocking trend, so I wear it for my birthday plus the color-festive mask that I bought at Giant Hypermarket haha :P
For the color-blocking, I wear the red cardigan, Tosca green vintage loose blouse, and the most favorite item: the burgundy skinny pants (and the black boots also). Oh, and the pearl & coin necklace too...
This photo was taken at the Center Library at University of Indonesia by Faradisa Azharini, my college friend.... (thanks Disa! :*)






Some people say that "Life begins at 20..."
This phrase kinda thrilled me... My feelings now is dualistic; at one side I feel so excited, yet I also trembled and horrified. It means my acts and conducts have to represent my age; I have some moral obligation to act according to my age.... I am basically not a teenager anymore (teenager: 13-19)

Therefore my ultimate birthday wishes is to be more MATURE. I don't desire any material stuff, new clothes, new gadgets or anything; this birthday I DESIRE THE "NEW ME"...

May God bless me and help me in the struggle for being a better person! :D

Designer Madness: GIVENCHY ♥ (full review)


Hi everyone! Now it's time to "get mad" with a designer: GIVENCHY by Ricardo Tisci!

I must say that since Ricardo Tisci took Givenchy under his hand, I NEVER miss one of Givenchy's show. Givenchy is one of a brand that I would always seek first. As you can see for yourself, I think this is one of the best Spring 2012 show. When almost every designer put lot of colors, patterns especially floral pattern, color-blocking, etc; Tisci put white, monochromatic, one-toned color, a very light pastel, and khaki colors. Well actually this is kinda subjective because I personally prefer pastels, monochrome colors than shocking or bright colors...

In addition, this show mostly inspired by one thing, what is that? SHARK! Yes, shark. When you look closer, you can see there is a shark-teeth (or fin, yeah basically shark's attributes), shark's skin pattern, etc.
Here's the details (and get mesmerized by it):



And these are the proof that Givenchy uses shark as his inspiration:


 The inspiration:


Just for some flashbacks, here I present to you the previous Givenchy RTW shows, which is so unforgettable for me:




Finally, give a massive applause to the brilliant & cold-handed creative behind it, RICARDO TISCI!!!
