Last week I've got the opportunity to come to the 3rd day of Jogja Fashion Festival (JFF) 2017 to attend J.Rep Clothings fashion show for the second time at Ambarrukmo Plaza. They also kindly invited me to watch their show last year, and I wrote about all of it here.

J.Rep is one the well-known Ready to Wear clothing tenant in the mall, and of course all over Indonesia. I've known this label since I was teeny, since 2010, and I love their collections when it comes to my needs of daily wear.

This time at JFF 2017, J.Rep is collaborating with Watch Club, to present their 20 newest outfit collections which are now available in the store all over Indonesia. Their collections are kinda simple, urban, chic whilst super up to date, easy to mix and match, and wearable for daily activities, which I love.

I bet all of you are familiar to this label too since they've been around for years and are available in several cities in Indonesia. For those of you who haven't, you should check out at the mall nearby, J.Rep is nearer than you think, hehe. Here are some of my faves that night...

The show started at 7 pm, and goes for two hours. We also got the chance to watch the special show presented by Ayu Gani, an awesome Indonesian girl, the winner of Asia's Next Top Models 2016, coaching some of the rookie models in Yogyakarta in an intensive two days lesson. Here are the sneakpeak of it, sorry, Gani, I didn't get the best shoot of you...

The show was closed by the performance of the -I just knew him that night- amazing Jazz singer, Teza Sumendra. It was so silly I didn't know him before, I left blank when the crowd cheered loudly after his name was called, but I am sure his name was kinda familiar in my head.

I asked Widya, 'Who is heee?!'

She was like, 'Whaaat?! that famous jazz singer!'

Imma be, 'Oh, yeaaa...I kinda now his name.'  

So, there you are Teza, I finally know you now, lol, your voice is bomb. Gurl, his husky voice makes me dying...

Watched the show with my luuves, Widya Sesarika (@sesarika) and Hemas Nura (@hemasnura) as per usual. I met them a lot this month, lol. Thanks for making this in-sync poker face picture darlingssss, we looked fierceee...ah! Thank you to J.Rep Clothings for having us also, we had a great night! Thank you all for reading and see you on the next event stories, bonus our boomerang!

Love,

Kalian pasti udah tau kan kalau blog ini biasanya berisi tentang fashion. Seringnya aku nulis tentang fashion, style, atau travel. Tapi aku memutuskan untuk bikin sedikit tambahan ke blog ini karena aku pengen nulis tentang make up dan beauty products. Meskipun masih perlu banyak belajar, tapi aku pengen banget share tentang beauty yang sudah aku ketahui, yang siapa tau bisa bermanfaat untuk kalian. 

Kebetulan aku lagi suka banget segala hal tentang skin care dan make up. Gak seperti beberapa tahun lalu yang kagok banget sama beginian, kayaknya sih karena mulai sadar umur, sadar harus ngerawat kulit lebih serius sebelum terlambat, hehe. Setelah diskusi dan nanya-nanya sama temen blogger, akhirnya aku memutuskan untuk menambah isi blog aku, nggak hanya Modest Fashion tapi juga Beauty. Karena fashion dan make up kan selalu berhubungan yah, so, nantinya aku bakal nulis lebih banyak lagi tentang makeup (dalam bahasa Indonesia) dan mudah-mudahan bisa bermanfaat yah! 

I am so into skin care and makeup recently. Unlike me few years ago, probably because I realize that I'm already in my mid 20s, that I need to take better care of my skin early. After some discussions and advises from fellow bloggers, I came to the decision to make this blog into Modest Fashion and Beauty blog. Because fashion and make up is always related and completes each other so, I'm excited for what's coming next, I'm gonna learn a lot more, and hopefully this will also be a good news for you too, yay!

Oke, kali ini aku mau ngasi tau ke kalian kalau pink box pertama aku dari Althea Korea sudah sampai, wohoo! Bagi yang belum tau, Althea ini adalah beauty e-commerce dari Korea yang menyediakan berbagai produk bergaransi asli brand-brand Korea untuk para customer di Asia Tenggara. Harganya sih sempet bikin kaget karena lebih murah dari beberapa official store di Indo. Mungkin harga asli di Korea di konversi langsung ke rupiah jadinya murah, produk yang aku terima seratus persen asli, udah gitu free shipping langsung dari Korea dengan minimum belanja IDR 299k, wah aku sih yes! haha.

Sebelumnya aku sudah coba beberapa produk beauty dari Korea juga, tapi ini pertama kali aku mendapat produk dari Althea. Aku milih produk-produk yang general dan basic banget, mulai dari make up, pembersih, sampai skin care, bagi kalian yang baru pertama kali akan purchase seperti aku, mungkin ini bisa jadi referensi produk apa aja yang cocok kalian pilih. Sebenernya paket ini sudah sampai sekitar 2 minggu yang lalu, tapi sengaja aku nulis reviewnya telat karena emang mau nyobain dan ngerasain dulu efek produknya gimana di kulitku. So, kita mulai ke produk pertama yahh...

Moving on to the real post, I'm excited to tell you guys that it's finally here! My first ever pink box from Althea Korea! yaashh. Althea is a Korea based beauty e-commerce providing various beauty products from Korean beauty brands to South East Asia's customers, with reasonable price, authentic guarantee, and free shipping service from Korea if you shop over IDR 299k. This is my first order, and I choose the very basics products, from make up, cleansing, to skin care. Actually, they arrived two weeks ago but I purposely wanting to write later after I personally tried on each product. So, let's see the first product I got...

1. NATURE REPUBLIC - ALOE VERA 92% SOOTHING & MOISTURE GEL

Produk satu ini sih legit banget ya, ajaib sih. Sebenernya produk ini kegunaannya sangat banyak dan bisa dipakai di berbagai area tubuh kita. Mulai dari masker wajah, pelembab, base make up, after shave balm, menyembuhkan kulit yang terbakar matahari, perawatan tubuh, dan masih banyak lagi. Untuk kandungan, komposisi, dan kegunaan lain dari produk ini bisa kalian lihat di halaman officialnya yah, soalnya kalau direnteng disini bakalan panjang banget.

This thing is legit good. Basically, this products has so many advantages and can be used anywhere on your body. From face mask, moisturizer, make up base, after shave balm, soothing sunburn skin, body care, and a lot more. For composition, ingredients, and other use of this products you can take a look at their official page because it would be very long if I write them down here.

Produk ini bentuknya gel, dengan sensasi dingin ketika dipakai di wajah tanpa harus disimpan di lemari es. Kemasannya seperti di gambar, lumayan besar hampir se-telapak tangan. Isinya juga banyak karena setiap pakai palingan 2 kali colek aja cukup. Aku pakai produk ini sebagai masker sebelum tidur, sambil sedikit aku pijit ke seluruh wajah supaya kulit bisa menyerap lebih maksimal. Kulitku lumayan berminyak, dengan beberapa kemerahan, bekas jerawat, komedo, dan masalah jerawat bermunculan sebelum tamu bulanan. Tapi belakangan ini, aku ngerasain banget pori-pori kulitku semakin rapet, bekas jerawat memudar, jerawat lebih cepat sembuh, dan sama sekali nggak ada jerawat baru meskipun sudah menjelang bulanan.

This product is in a form of gel, and it gives a very cooling sensation. I use it on my face as a mask before sleep, massaging my face with it so that the skin could absorb it better. After few days, I really feel a good progress on my skin. I have an oily skin with some redness and acne scars, whiteheads and acne issue especially before my period. But, these days my skin pores feel a lot tighter, my acnes are drying faster, acne scars are slowly fading, and there's no new acne appearing even before my period. 

Produk ini ngga lengket dan cepat meresap kering setelah dipakai. Kulitku berasa lembab dan kenyal banget seharian tanpa rasa berminyak. Untuk repurchase kayaknya sih iya karena keluargaku satu rumah juga pada nebeng minta, haha. Recommended bagi kalian yang kulitnya kering, ataupun berminyak, atau masih bingung skin care apa yang cocok, InsyaAllah aman dan halal sih karena ini 92% aloe vera, dan harganya hanya sekitar IDR 50k. Memang sudah banyak orang yang suka Aloe Vera Soothing Gel ini, dan aku salah satunya! 

This product absorbs fast and is not sticky after applying, and I can feel my skin very moisturized the while time without feeling oily. I know so many people loved it, and I would say, I'm one of them!

Produk satu ini best seller juga. Kemasannya kecil bisa digenggam, cocok masuk dalam daily pouch, dan di dalamnya ada puff untuk pemakaian, Bentuknya powder warna putih tapi di kulit transparan aja nggak memberi efek warna, dan aromanya seperti mint seger gitu. Seperti sebelumnya, untuk detail kandungan bahan bisa dilihat di official pagenya ya, tapi produk ini seluruhnya terbuat dari bahan organik alami yang aman untuk kulit wajah.

This product is one of the best sellers. The packaging is very simple, suitable to be in your daily pouch, and got that cute little puff inside. The powder is white but it will give no color effect on the skin, just transparent with a little of minty scent. Just like the previous one, you can look for composition details on the official page and in short, this product is made of natural organic materials which are good for the skin. 

Kegunaan bedak ini adalah mengurangi minyak di kulit wajah, dan iya aja, aku pakai bedak ini oil controlnya lumayan selama 5 jam kulitku stay on nggak meleleh. Selepas 5 jam juga nggak meleleh, hanya sedikit mulai berminyak. Aplikasi bedak ini enak banget, meskipun pakai puff, tapi nggak menggumpal sama sekali ketika mendarat di kulit wajah, sangat mudah diratakan, dan mudah banget nge-setnya. Tapi setelah wudhu, iyasih hilang dan perlu re-apply.

This is an anti-oily powder which is perfect for daily use. It's true tho, I wear this product and it stays quite well for 5 hours before it start getting greasy. It's also easy to apply, it's not clumpy on the skin, very easy to blend, and quick to set. 

Mungkin ada yang mbatin produk ini mirip Etude House Zero Sebum? atau sebenernya Etude Zero Sebum yang mirip Innisfree No Sebum? hehe. Iyaaa, memang packagingnya sangat mirip, pastel green lucu, hanya saja Innisfree sedikit lebih kecil dan design covernya beda. Mereka sama-sama produk andalan untuk makeup sehari-hari untuk mencegah kulit berminyak. Tapi bagi yang kulitnya kering pakai ini juga nggak masalah kok, karena bedak ini soft banget, ngga bikin cakey atau kulit jadi kering. Untuk repurchase, aku sih yes, soalnya ringan banget rasanya, ringkes dibawa-bawa, enak dipakai, aromanya cool. Aku prefer ini dibanding Etude Zero Sebum, harganya juga selisih lebih mahal dikit tapi masih affordable, IDR 80k sayangs! bungkus? heheee...

This product is similar to Etude House Zero Sebum, especially the packaging, the same pastel green tone but Innisfree is slightly smaller, and both aims to reduce oily skin. But for those who has dry skin, I think this product won't be a problem, because it's very soft to the skin, simple to bring around, and not drying.

3. THE SAEM Cover Perfection Tip Conceler, Saemmul Real Tint, dan ETUDE HOUSE Drawing Eye Brow

The Saem Cover Perfection Tip Concealer adalah concealer pertamaku, berhubung aku nggak punya masalah terlalu serius dengan kantung mata or mata panda, makanya aku nggak terlalu sering mengcover under eye aku. Tapi aku pilih produk ini karena aku memang butuh concealer untuk menutup bekas jerawat atau kemerahan di wajah, atau untuk highlight bagian tertentu. Harga concealer ini hanya IDR 55k, dan bisa dibilang ini holy grail sih, haha. Pertama tau produk ini dari Sunny Dahye, beauty youtuber asli Korea yang besar dan tinggal di Indonesia, katanya ini adalah dupe dari NARS concealer dan dia suka banget, lalu banyak youtuber lainnya juga puas pakai concealer ini, suskes deh bikin aku penasaran.

The Saem Cover Perfection Tip Concealer is my first ever concealer, because actually, I don't have a very serious under eye issue, I don't really need to conceal my under eye. But I think sometimes I do need concealer to cover any blemishes, or highlighting some parts. With price only IDR 60k, this is a holy grail I would say. I first know this product from Sunny Dahye, a Korean beauty Youtuber grew up in Indonesia, she said that this is a dupe for NARS concealer, she loved it, and her friends agreed, and my research on other k-beauty youtubers resulted in their satisfaction on this product.

Setelah nyoba sendiri, bener deh aku setuju, this concealer is bomb. Konsistensinya sedikit cair, tapi blendingnya bagus banget, coveragenya oke, terus enteng banget di kulit. Fun fact, aku sering pake concealer ini sehari-hari sebagai base make up. Hanya dengan mengoleskan sedikit di bagian tertentu yang perlu di cover seperti samping hidung dan dark spots, tapi concealer ini justru malah merata ke seluruh wajah tanpa terasa greasy dan bahkan sekaligus meratakan warna kulit. Dipakai wudhu juga nggak luntur, hanya bedaknya saja sih mungkin yang ilang. Trus, tiap kali pakai ini sebagai base, beberapa orang bilang kulitku glowing, lol. Gak tau sih, itu beneran glowing atau gimana, yang jelas, aku suka produk ini bisa mendatangkan komentar positif dari orang-orang tentang kulitku! Repurchase mungkin YES ya, karena pemakaiannya hemat banget, sedikit aja sudah bisa merata di wajah. Kalian harus coba juga!

After using it my self, I can say that I agree, this concealer is bomb. It has quite runny consistency, but it blends really well, the coverage is super good, and it feels light to the skin. Fun fact, I use it more for daily make up, without foundation underneath, to conceal some dark spots in a certain area like nose side, forehead, but it actually sets the whole face and even out the skin tone, and every time I use it, people said that my face glow, lol. I don't know if it really glows but I'm satisfied this product makes people give good comments on my skin! Repurchase YES, because it saves more money since you only need a little of it to even out the whole face. You should try too!

The Saem Saemmul Real Tint in Pink ini konsistensinya cair, seperti sirup dengan aroma fruity dan rasanya manis (sempet kena lidah waktu mau pake, hehe). Lip tint ini ketika dipakai akan meresap ke bibir dan stain, jadi diapain juga warnanya akan tetap stay. Sebenernya formulanya enak dan mudah diaplikasikan, banyak yang bilang juga lebih enak daripada liptint Tony Moly atau Etude House. Kesalahannya ada di bibirku yang cukup tebal dan agak kehitaman di bagian pinggir, hehe, jadi untuk pakai tint kurang cocok, dan aku kurang suka hasilnya di bibirku. Tapi bagi kalian penggemar liptint, dengan bibir tipis atau nggak ada masalah kehitaman, cocok banget, aku pilih ini alasannya juga karena rating produknya tinggi dan banyak juga yang suka. Kira-kira kalian suka nggak ya? hehe

The Saem Saemmul Real Tint in Pink has a very watery consistency, like a syrup with fruity scent and actually tastes real sweet. Lip tint will absorbs to the lips and stained, so, the colour will stay no matter what you do. Actually the formula is good, and easy to apply, people also said it's better than the Tony Moly or Etude House's ones. The problem is my lips are a little too thick and has that dark edge, I don't really like it on me. But for those who has a contrary condition to my lips, this one would be a good choice!

Etude House Drawing Brow in Grey ini aku pilih karena banyak temen yang pakai, kemudian banyak yg rekomendasiin, dan banyak youtuber juga yang suka. I think no one has ever hated it. Terdiri dari satu sisi dengan pensilnya yang berbentuk pipih dan dikeluarkan secara twist atau diputar, kemudian di sisi lainnya terdapat spooly yang halus. Dibanding pensil alis biasa, pensil pipih ini lebih mudah dipakai karena tidak perlu meraut, bentuknya sudah pipih menyesuaikan kebutukan kita membat garis yang paripurna pada alis, hehe, dan nggak sakit di kulit ketika aplikasi.

Etude House Drawing Brow in Grey is everyone's favorito. A lot of my friends use it, and many youtubers also recommend it. I think no one has ever hated it. It has one side with flat pencil, and the other side with a super soft spooly brush. No need to re-sharpening, and it won't hurt when applying,

3. THE SAEM HEALING TEA GARDEN - WHITE TEA CLEANSING WATER

Hal yang paling  penting selain skin care dan kadang sering banget diabaikan, adalah cleansing. Membersihkan make up segera setelah nggak diperlukan lagi itu penting girls, karena makeup sebenernya menutupi pori-pori kulit kita dan bisa memancing komedo dan jerawat muncul karena kotoran dan kuman yang seharian menumpuk di permukaan kulit. Cleanser yang baik adalah yang bisa sempurna mengangkat make up tanpa menimbulkan efek negatif pada kulit. Setelah pakai The Saem Healing Tea Garden White Tea Cleansing Water ini aku ngerasa pori kulitku bisa bernafas dengan baik, hehe, so far aku puas banget, produk ini legit girls, karena bisa mengangkat makeup secara maksimal hanya dengan satu helai kapas untuk make up daily ku, dan untuk studio make up yang biasanya menghabiskan 5-7 helai kapas, dengan ini aku hanya butuh 3 helai sampai muka bersih sempurna. Dengan volume 300 ml dan harga IDR 70k, hemat banget dan bakalan lama kepakenya. Produk ini sejenis micellar water gitu ya, dan aromanya calming banget, kuat mengangkat make up tapi lembut di kulit, dan segar setelah pemakaian sama sekali nggak berminyak karena berbahan dasar air, bukan oil. Repurchase sih YES deh, tapi aku mungkin beli yg Tea Tree, bukan White tea lagi karena sebenernya salah klik waktu milih seharusnya White Tea ini untuk dry skin, sedangkan aku yang oily harusnya pakai seri Tea Tree, tapi yaudah nggak apa, lagian yang ini juga nggak bermasalah.

The most important thing other than skin care and usually being ignored is cleansing. After using The Saem Healing Tea Garden White Tea Cleansing Water I feel my skin pores is finally breathing, I'm a satisfied customer. This product is able to clean your make up optimally without needing a lot of it. I clean my daily make up in a sheet of cotton and a studio make up which usually spend 5-7 cottons, with this I only need 3. It's water based cleanser similar to micellar water, soft to the skin, and not feeling oily after use.

Okay girls, itu tadi beberapa produk yang sudah aku pakai dari pink box Althea pertamaku, dan overall, aku suka semua produknya. Semoga bisa jadi referensi yang bermanfaat untuk kalian yah. Thankyou Althea for making my dream come true, feels like I'm in Korea everyday having my daily Korean skin care, dan juga happy karena bisa ngedapetin produk-produk Korea dengan mudah dan terjangkau. Pastinya aku akan coba produk lainnya juga yang sudah banyak direkomendasikan, dan semoga post kali ini bisa bermanfaat untuk kalian yah.

Terimakasih sudah mampir untuk baca, dan sampai jumpa di beauty review selanjutnya!

Love,

Speaking of trend, did you notice that layering has been so in trend recently? This is one of the way you can try to be stylish with less effort. You can just mix and match your old and new stuff and put on one over another.

This layering trend has been a savior to a hijabi like me. I used to feel insecure whenever I wore something underneath my dress, fear that it'd be seen and looked weird. But recently, slip dress or dresses with no sleeves has also became everyone's favorite. Layering by pairing an old casual dress over an inner shirt/tee, and wear pants underneath would make people say you pull off the style.

Not leaving a cap-toe shoes, shoes that also has the layering effect in which the toe parts are covered, was also a hit. It's just brilliant to make the shoes simply looked more fun and elegant by putting a dark color over the toes, I can't help but loving it. 

This dress from DotDtails is one of my favorite slip dress. The ruffle details at the bottom parts is my favorite because it will sway as I walk, and the length is just right, not too short, not too long. Creating a fun look but still being modest. Plus, the cutting is always comfortable to wear, quality won't lie, you seriously need to have this one too! Shop on their website or Instagram (@dotdtails) now. Pics bonus on where I went to with this outfit. 

Went to Punika Deli Cafe Ambarrukmo and had a blast with Syarizka Anefi, Shouva, and Hemas Nura, they are all muslimah models, with Quin the owner of Azzura Models Management Yogyakarta (You can find them on Instagram: @azzuramodelsyogya, and contact them for anything moslem fashion modelling bussiness), and me, akumah apa butiran embun. This is what we ordered...

Thanks for the quality time girlsss, for empowering each other. Thank you for reading also, see you on the next one!

Hello, how are you? I'm starting the post with the pic of me and my girls after mba Anunk Aqeela's show at Jogja Fashion Festival 2017. It was a great night witnessing the newest collection "HEART" that mba Anunk has been working on for a while finally comes to life!

The show presents 10 pieces of the whole collection. Honestly, I'm also new to Anunk Aqeela's designs which has bold, powerful, and unique characteristic that mostly comes out in monochrome shades, this label has been around creating masterpiece from two years ago and I'd say that I adore them so much. The show was baam! you can scroll down to see more of what's on it last time...

When the designer was busy backstage preparing the show, I watced the show accompanied by my girls Rizka the pro hijab model and a smart personality, and Hemas Nura who is a doctor who also does modelling, and in the middle, a fashion blogger who becomes a shortie everytime she's around these models. Here's more to see...

Something seemed familiar? Yes, I was honoured to be one of the muse for the "HEART" collection's poster along with Rizka. I really came out of my comfort zone, and mba Anunk's design really appeal what's never been seen on me before, howya like me being bold? maybe I should try bold style once in a while? haha. 

I actually tried, to pull off the bold monochrome style on me and it turned out fine by wearing the bell sleeve top from one of Anunk Aqeela Collection. Still, can't help being lovely, so I opted to wear earrings and pump heels, but red lips for sure!

Thank you so much mba Anunk and the team, for having me, and making the project even more fun, and also for the knowledge and advices you shared to us as a young mother, life lesson learned. The project will still be continued so I will see them again soon. 

You can see more about Anunk Aqeela Indonesia on their instagram (@anunkaqeela.id) and shop their collection right this instant. Once again, congratulations mba Anunk and team, it was DOPE. Thank you for reading and bonus video of the collection sneak peak below. See you on the next post!

Right at the moment when I'm having K-drama fever, this hanbok crop top from DotDtails came to me. I am so excited, as you know Hanbok is a traditional korean wear, which has a trade mark, a side tie-up detail. The original hanbok is very hijab-friendly, because it covers the whole body like a long dress, so we can just add up hijab to cover our head.

Wearing the original hanbok would be a little stuffy for daily activities. This style can be an option when you want to have a korean feel to your outfit while still being able to move freely. I paired up this cropped top with long sleeve shirt and a comfy wide pants, simple styled hijab, and a pointy shoes.

A short sleeve cropped top is a good item to wear for those who wear hijab, because we can make a layering effect with the inner shirt which is a effortless way to look more stylish. It's also make us easier to move around without being sultry. A wide leg pants with a comfortable material for keeping the modest-feel of original hanbok, but keeping you free to move. A pointy shoes because I want my feet to look pretty, lol,

I'm so in love with the cut and material from DotDtails new collections EASY ELEGANCE, they're so well-tailored. Get your own korean look and shop this Hanbok cropped top through their website or Instagram (@dotdtails) and I'm definitely going to show you more of my DotDtails outfit later! End of today's style post. Thanks for reading!

Love,

Lia.

It was a gloomy afternoon before raining hard when I arrived and met this gorgeous girls at Hayati Specialty Coffee Yogyakarta. This place is located in Jl. Demangan Baru, Yogyakarta. Such a cozy new place in town to chill out, working, and had a good sip of coffee.

So sweet of Amel, the young lady in white, owner of this cozy place, to invite us and have a taste on some of their specialties from beverage to food. We had a good time, a good talk, and she let us took pictures of everything inside, because I'm not lying guys, this place really is so cozy. To make you all sure of what I'm saying, scroll down to see more!

I'm so in love with the lighting inside, and the lights itself. They really pay attention to details when it comes to interior. Simple quotes on the wall completes everything, just in a right proportion. It was finally raining super hard when our order arrived.

I haven't told you right, 'our' here was Nia from www.deniathly.com as usual, I met this girl everywhere lol, and Roro, an Instagram influencer, a sweet personality that I met recently. It was raining, but we all want sweet and icy drinks in an unintentionally different pretty colours. Of course, they're all healthy colours, from taro to coffee.

Yes, lunch time is here, so we need to fuel up. The food was also yumsss, mine was something called egg yolk rice bow (?) I can't really remember the name but it's good. Those who doesn't want to eat a lot, can opt for snacks also, because there are various choices on the menu.

Not just coffee, there's Popoluca Store next to Hayati Coffee. It was in the same building so you can also shop after finishing your business with coffee. I am absolutely went inside to take a look on what they have. 

Cutesies take over the whole room! I love the collections, so up to date and don't be scared, they are all in affordable prices. You can find out more about Hayati Coffee and Popoluca Store on their Instagram page: @hayaticoffee and @popolucaclothing.

Hi dearest! this time I want to let you know where I went, and what I did last weekend. Yap! I was attending 'Amazara Indonesia Open House' because they're moving to a new space! a cute, cozy, and passionate space to be exact. Did you know about AMAZARA? for those #amazarasquad if you read this I know you're excited, for those who are yet to know them, you're one step away to be a cool squad, keep reading and get ready for awesomeness coming your waaay!

Amazara is an Indonesian local shoe brand based in Yogyakarta, fabulously evolving with their mantra 'Affordably Stylish'. They first started their collection on comfy and simple design such as flats, sandals, and sneakers, but after a year they finally also release heels collection, but still, not leaving comfiness to our feet, they made them as midi high block heels, my favorito! Well, you can find more about Amazara on their Instagram (@amazara.id) or you can stalk their website here. Now, let's checkout what happened during the event!

The event was held from the morning up until night, open for customers and partners to choose when to come. Each hour has different theme of sharing session hosted by all the people behind the Amazara scenes. I came at 4 p.m. and I met my fellow bloggers, social media people, and influencers.

I came late for the main event started in the evening, all guests gathered and they welcome all of us to do anything we want, it was a total creative, mingle, reunion and networking night. I was so happy the timing was right that we all end up satisfying our sweetooth with various kinds of sweets, I mean not only sweet but also cutesies all over the room!

These happened when bloggers catch up and sit together, cameras everywhere, sometime we talk to a person, other times we talk to a person who is busy with phones updating on social media. No, I'm kidding, we actually had a good time, and of course had a lot of good photo time with anyone or every single piece of cutesies that can not be left out.  

Here's the girls and I with the first lady of Amazara, mba Uma Hapsari herself (left to right: Nia from www.deniathly.com, Amel from www.widriani.web.id, Mba Uma, Aubrey, and me). It was nice to finally meeting you and absorbs positive and passionate energy from you mba Uma!

The cutest pile of shoe box you can have from purchasing their collections, like seriously, can a shoe box get any cuter than this? SHOP SHOP SHOP NOW!!!

Not only people behind Amazara, I also met a whole lot more inspiring people from all around, talk about life and thoughts. Making new friends, creating a great network, and of course build a strong friendship.

So many things I can learn and take note to, aaanddd...prepare for more cutesies ahead! Doing Amazara's new collection flatlays is compulsory. Don't forget the holy hashtag #AmazaraSquad!

Another new friends with their new friends! Wishing to meet you again next time girliesss.

Of course, passionate vibes and encouraging quotes are all over the room!

When us found the newest invention of selfie light ring, immediate selfie 

Here's me being serious having my first conversation on my second meeting with mba Ewindhasari, the ladyboss of Gotosovie (checkout www.gotosovie.com). Thanks for the great sharing mba Windha, and of course mba Evina the sister that I met first before I know about Gotosovie. Sukses selalu!

These two amazing fashionpreneurs that I can impossibly left behind, Widya Sesarika of The Steddy, and mba Indah Ederra of Ederra Indonesia. I mean gurrrlll, I don't need to explain further, they are awesome and the ones I really look up to. So proud to have you all as a sister-like friend, geng tangga, because when when stand up we do look like stairs, lol and loves loveess! Okay, I'm done being cheesy.

Finally, I can show you me chillin' in my outfit with the newest collection of Amazara called Evelyn in rose gold which caught my heart! Cool and sweet at the same time. Psst, They're restocking so better hurry before they say sorry.

Thankyou so much Amazara Indonesia, Amazara Squad, mba Uma and family, for having me in your new office! It was such a good time and place you made for all of us, and it's great to see how the team working together. We had yummy bakmi jawa also, boleh tambah omset rilis Bakmi Amazara juga, lol. I wish Amazara will grow even bigger, spread even wider, and be the best Indonesian shoe label.

Don't forget to stalk, stop, and shop at Amazara, even cooler squad! Thanks for reading and see you on the next event stories at LOVELIA, bye!

Love,
