Hi everyone!
I was wearing this outfit on my birthday, which is actually held on November 18th last month. Sadly I had no time to post this outfit that day, so I have to postpone this birthday outfit until today. I must say that this is one of my favorite outfit. I found this abstract-painting-look alike skirt from my grandma's treasury & I modified this skirt at a tailor to cut down the size. I was mesmerize with the pattern & color as well, and this skirt is that typical item which isn't easily mixed with other item. The most safe mixture is black, but I refuse to wear black. One day, I tried this skirt with this magenta top - and the color mix turned out to be so interesting.
Top: Vintage
Skirt: Vintage (My grandma's)
Necklace: (X)S.M.L
Btw, today I got notified by Yunita that I'm nominated for Liebster Award in her blogpost. Thanks a lot!! I feel honored :)

My favorite book is Momo written by Michael Ende. I also love Sophie's World by Jostein Gaardner eventhough I haven't finished reading it haha.
2) What movie that makes you cry?
The very first movie that made me cry was Titanic. I know, very cliche. Basically I always cry when the leading role tragically die: Cold Mountain, The Painted Veil, etc. I also cried when seeing injustice such as in My Name is Khan & North Country.
3) Describe yourself in three words
Describe-it-yourself. I sometime confuse with myself, how can I describe such a confusing being?
4) Have you ever googled yourself and been surprised at what you've found?
Yes I have. I was surprised once because I found another person who has the same name as myself (Izzaura). I thought I was the only one HAHA.
5) Favorite designer?
Haider Ackermman: very distinguishable. Karl Lagerfeld: a legend. Alexander McQueen: a genius who is totally out-of-this-world. (and Sarah Burton too).
Oh, and I love other British designers such as Mary Katrantzou, Peter Pillotto, & Christopher Kane.
6) What is your favorite TV shows?
None. I rarely watch TV.

"Experience is a hard teacher because she gives the test first, the lesson afterwards." - Vernon Law
9) If you could live anywhere in the world, where would it be?
Perhaps in Scandinavia, who have the welfare-state system. Countries around Denmark, Finland, Norway, or Sweden. Clean government, great natural scenery, peaceful country, at least that is what I heard.
10) When do you start blogging?
September, 29th 2011.
11) What is your favourite brand (clothes/shoes/jewelry)?
Unbranded. I don't attach myself to one brand because in fashion I'm a "free-thinker". I never put any kinds of brand as my "religion" and stick to it. I prefer a cheap, thrifted, unplanned shopping.
Actually I have to make my own nominees for another 11 bloggers who is worth for Liebster Award. But unfortunately I can't do it today, since I have some papers to do. But I WILL make them in my next post, including the 11 list of questions for the nominees!
