running in heels... LITERALLY

OK. This is the most hilarious thing that I've ever seen on TV! You gotta see for yourself So these girls were running in their minimum 7.5 centimeters stiletto!  The winning team a.k.a  The Pinkettes  have earned themselves a place in the Guinness Book of Record for running the fastest  in heels.The four girls completed the 263-foot course in just....... one minute and four seconds ! That was AMAZING.  More than a hundred women took part in a stiletto race in Sydney, Australia to raise money and awareness for the National Breast Cancer Foundation. The event raised almost $10-thousand.  A good cause that placed you at Guinness Book :) I guess I could win those race some other time. I hope Indonesian get inspired by them. LOL.

Resident BOOEvil

Alice in a same old flick Now I know I don't have to expect too much when it comes to movie franchises, let alone Resident Evil. I think audiences got pretty tired with the last three movies which were basically have the same plot. Alice against Umbrella Corp. Too bad I didn't see this movie in 3D, that I believe would have given a bit of an edge. The movie begins when Alice played by Milla Jovovich is trying to destroy the Umbrella Corp using her newly discovered clones and goes deep inside Umbrella Head Quarters in Tokyo to kill Wesker, played by Shawn Roberts.  Afterlife is simply more the same excuse to have big special effects and continue a plot that simply seems will never end with Umbrella continuing on forever in the next 'afterlife'. The monsters in this movie were good, but I think the zombies don't really play much of a part in the horror and are simply there just to add to the atmosphere. Also, I felt that near the end, it borrows too much from the ...

i wish... // i want...

Paul Arden.. The late Paul Arden. Even though he's gone, but his books will always live to lift everyone whom weary and need spirit to go on and continue their life.  Yes the previous week was a total disaster. The problem suddenly popped up in one peaceful day. As I said gazillion times earlier, I never ever have a freedom of speech at home. Children have mouth but don't allow to use it. Whatever parents say, children just nodding and nodding. Disagreement is strictly forbidden.  I couldn't write in here the exact problem. But it's HUGE. They've been unfair. To me. To my boyfriend. And now they force me to get married. Buy house. Pay mortgage. Have babies.  For the very first time in my life, I DENIED those shits. They said that me and my boyfriend have been too long together. So what? We're grown up. We would never act like a fool. We know what we are doing. We know what we are capable of.  They blabbing about tradition. I said it has nothing to do with ...

if you leave me now..

IF YOU LEAVE ME NOW (Chicago) If you leave me now, you'll take away the biggest part of me Uh uh uh uh no baby please don't go And if you leave me now, you'll take away the very heart of me Uh uh uh uh no baby please don't go Uh uh uh uh girl I just want you to stay A love like ours is love that's hard to find How could we let it slip away We've come too far to leave it all behind How could we end it all this way When tomorrow comes and we'll both regret The things we said today :(

gimme back my sunshine!!

When I was younger, my teacher taught me about climate and weather condition in Indonesia. We have two seasons, summer (usually it happens between February - August) while the rest of the year is rainy season. But it seems, those rules are history now. Cos every single day, the rain pours. Windy, with a bit thunder here and there, and strangely the weather can be so hot at noon before raining at night. I always wonder what actually happen with our beautiful home? Don't laugh at me, but I begin to believe in 2012 prophecy. Maybe something BIG will happen and change our world.  The end of the world has become human's biggest fear and greatest mystery unsolved until we face it for ourselves. It was written in the bible some signs when the end is near. I don't remember the detail, but as I recall, they're pretty much mentioning about human meltdown and nature breakdown. Now I'm losing my sunshine, most people around me faces a confusing sexual orientation, wars, every ...

all asses were not equal!!

Every women I know, share the same difficulties for choosing the right JEANS! Yeap. Jeans is one of the must essential item in your closet hence it has to really fit you and make you look great. I think women must have at least 5 different type of jeans in their closet. A skinny one, boot cut/straight, wide legged, boyfriend jeans (optional), high waisted jeans (optional). I have them all in my closet. But problem is, does my jeans really suit me? sexy comes in all sizes and shapes Recently, my fave jeans brand  Levi’s®  launched a new line of custom-fit jeans called Curve ID. The designers created a new approach to measuring a woman's body and identified three distinct body types that account for 80% of women's shapes universally.   The three Curve ID fits are based on these universal body types. Those three custom fits are: Slight Curve - designed to celebrate straight figures  : Slight curve is designed to define a woman's waist, while accentuating her...

Welcome to the world.... Baby Lionel Joaquin

Lionel Joaquin The only reason I stay here in Bandung on holiday time is this cute tiny little baby who just born into this world on September 10 2010. Yes it's my NEPHEW!!! Oh he's so adorable :) I think my brother hasn't sure about his name yet, not that I knew of. But they already called him Lionel Joaquin. Thank God for Your blessing once again. This latest and probably the cutest addition to our family is one of the best gift that we've ever had. Boy you look so beautiful! I can't believe I'm becoming an auntie! My prayers are for you and I hope someday you'll become one of great man who has a brave heart and warm eyes... give thanks to God :)

happy eid mubarak 1431H

From the bottom of my heart, I sincerely wishing everyone having a very special, beautiful, blessed moment with your loved ones. Happy Eid Mubarak 1431H for all of you who celebrate it :) As a former Moslem and still live with Moslem family, Idul Fitri is one of the moment that we've always been waiting for a whole year. Sometimes people often mistakenly considered Idul Fitri as time to renew all things especially to "upgrade" how they look. That's why many people become very consumptive approaching "hari raya". They were wasting their money for unimportant stuff in a very compulsive way just to look "good" in hari raya.  I thought people are slowly forgetting the true meaning of hari raya. It is the time when we have a chance to clean up our heart once again and free ourselves from hatred and forgive people (and vice versa). It's the clear heart that matters, not the bling blings.  Happy Eid Mubarak 1431H

orange in a grey world

I know it's been a while since the last time I posted Fashion Smashion :( I tried my best to keep you updated with my daily outfits by take a picture of me with my blackberry (hence the image resolution was awful. Sorry). So here's a bit from what I wore last week... perfect outfit for tricky weather fell in love with heart tights Weather these days have been very tricky. Sometimes it's very hot at day and suddenly the rain was pouring at night. So I manage to stay -not so warm-nor so cool- by wearing this type of outfit. I combined my favorite leather jacket with bright color that match with  fall  tone, orange and add a bit grey here and there. Which I love to bits :) I also wore tights so I didn't feel too cold even though I wore hot pants. BTW  I'm so GLAD finally TopShop and Zara opened their first stores in Bandung. They're my favorite high street fashion alongside Mango, Dorothy Perkins, and Miss Selfridge. Yay!! Topshop leather jacket...

august round up!

sorry for the lack of updates, please blame the fugly internet connection and the lack of ideas from my brain who usually just stared at a blank "new post" page on blogger, wrote some, and then save that shitty post to draft. I wish I could post more in Fashion Smashion section. But it's so hard when you have noone but yourself to count on. and worse is, I don't have a tripod. I used to ask my sister to take picture of me, but you know she doesn't always here all the time and she's a bad photographer to be honest (don't tell her!). Well.. I guess I have to buy a tripod then.. I wore some amazing outfit these past month, too bad I didn't have a chance to share with you guys :( SONY Alpha Oh  and for the first time in my life, I wanted something unusual: CAMERA DSLR. The other day I went out with my friends and one of them brought camera Sony Alpha. Guess what? I really really love the result!! I immediately imagined me + sony alpha = perfect fash...
