I AM WHO I AM

I like the kinda girl who doesn't put so much effort on her style
who dress up for her sake, for her own pleasure
hell yeahh..to messy hair,smokey eyes..and boyish losses outfit
I'm not that type kinda girl who likes high heels,prefect Mani pedicure,uptight dress,and big salon hair...

u don't like what u see..u think that's weird,tomboy or not girl y enough for a girl..?
then.. walk away.. (maybe i did the same thing  when i saw u anyway..)

 so..everybody have their own style..mine?inspired by
ALEXA CHUNG

She got the boyish vibe..but still bring sexy around the table anyway..






KATE MOSS

She done everything bad a girl could have done..but she don't care and keep on rock in..As if Image doesn't listed on her mind at all..(and i like it!)



SIENNA MILLER

She made a doc marten boots back on track in the fashion industries..she has her own label (Twenty8Twelve)..which something I'm pushing my self into doing it also..






other inspiration also could come from something i saw on the streets,people walking by here and there..and  any other things as well..

BUT THE IMPORTANT THING IS TO ..FIND YOUR STYLE,STICK WITH IT,NO MATTER WHAT OTHERS SAY ABOUT IT..COZ IN THE END U DRESS UP FOR YOURSELF NOT FOR ANYONE ELSE!

XOXO,

EAST vs WEST marriage thingy

it was pops out in my mind earlier when i was taking a bath..the big difference that east(especially in Indonesia,i don't speak for any other east countries..)and west countries having bout marriage thingy..

what is the deal here in Indonesia,
for a couple when they getting married??they should held a big reception..big ceremony...the higher the star of the hotel they are in to..the more prestige they get from it.the more people they can invite to it,the more extravaganza..

don't they realize that is not worthy at all?they spend it like millions of money just for one night..(2 or 3 hours max) then they think people will remember it for the rest of their life?nooo....its a big no no!coz how big the party u held,there will be a bigger party coming up soon right after u.


sooo..think twice when u think for a big extravagant married..coz better u spend it on your honeymoon( i think u can go to Paris or Milan with that kind of money budgeting..and the one that enjoys it is u and your lover.not anyone else who just come up to your big party, eat and go home.(some of them even maybe actually doesn't want to go at the first place coz to lazy to dress up or any other reasons...)<---i speak for myself for this one..hate dress up for going to marriage party,especially for someone i even not close with.going to salon,makeup,dress up.../even when i write this blog right now..its make my mood down a little bit. thanks God I'm not having any party invitation coming soon this month. 


now..the difference with the western countries..(as i seen it in the movies hohoho...)they only held it the back of their home,in their garden..more likely like a garden party..only close relative invited..walking down the aisle with a simple dress(not the one that scared me to death!the big under waist kind of wedding dress/remind me of a cake wedding/small on top and get bigger on the below)or..maybe they held it in some place else (at the
beach..) but still the number of people coming up are much more smaller measure up with here in Indonesia(usually they held a table kind of arrangement for the relative that come..and they don't invite the whole people on their address phone numbers to come!)



it is simple,elegant,yet not coz a lot of money..and energy!(wondering the bride who is wearing a heavy dress and high heels standing for 3 hours to shaking hands with people who congrats her for getting married..the the groom who have to spend a big amount of money that expired within 3 hours?)

what your excuses?
---> there is more of business related reason for a big wedding?(the big bosses, are also too busy to come back from work and have to put a nice suit to come up to the party..they also have to give some money rite?which with their title,they expected to give a big mount of money.don't u really think they happy with that?come on get real!)

---->i have a lot of friends and how should they know I'm getting married if i wasn't invited them?(just put the news on the news paper/if u really wanting them to know u married :p!Beside..from 100% of your friends, only 20% that's really close to u,and really care that u getting married)soo who cares bout what your friends think or speak bout it,It Is your wedding,have it your-way.even in your big day..u have to think what others would think bout u??so sad!

---->my family expected me to give them a respect in front of their friends (well..i pleased my family all the time..26 years until now!u want to please them? there still lots of time to please them,when u become a success person,when u give them a grandchildren,when u have a wonderful family of your own..)


but the point over here...its officially global economic crisis..so any reasons to have a big extravaganza marriage just to please others..is just stupid!(only if u are a paris Hilton or prince William,so don't have to concern with this situation..but for regular people like me,i don't believe in pleasing others in the expenses of myself suffering.that's all!

friends with BENEFITS

I REALIZED THERE WAS NO PRINCE CHARMING RIDING A WHITE HORSE COMING ON TO U.. A LONG TIME AGO..(and believe me when i say this..i did adjusted with it!)

ONE THING I NEVER BEEN ABLE TO ADJUST IS.. THERE WILL BE NO TEA PARTY WITH GIRLS..NO PAJAMAS PARTY WITH MY BFFNO BEST FRIENDS FOREVER ANYMORE..(we used to said: boys can come and go but girls will be staying with u before and after u done with him)

for example--->
i have one girl who always been with me,and she can tell the whole story bout my first ex,second ex,...
COZ SHE ALWAYS BEEN THERE!and she still is until now..

BUT FOR SOME GIRLS AFTER CERTAIN AGE....
the prefer to please their boyfriends for the sake of marriage..
they prefer to spend times with their boyfriends to be able to show how much they love him..
(DIDN'T U READ WHY MAN LOVE BITCHES?!!)
no wonder boys don't take u seriously coz u always been there for him..always available for him..he get bored of u,and looking
for something more interesting and exciting in the end....WANNA BET?

MEANWHILE...
u ditches your girlfriend,call her only when u get lonely or fought with your darling...and u think that's normal?
PUT YOURSELF IN MY SHOES THEN U REALIZES IT ISN'T!

SOOO... fuck it off,this kind of girl might be a nice girl for his man (which in the end he will take u for granted..)but for me,if i have this tipe of friends..this girl is just a doormat.



--->THIS BL
OG ISN'T REFER TO ANYONE SPECIFIC..JUST GOT ANGRY COZ THE MORE MODERN TIME IS,THE MORE DUMB SOME GIRLS ARE.

xoxo and lots of love,
ms iconia





we are more than LABEL

WHO needs branded thing when u have your own value?

if u know u worthy enough,feels precious enough to love yourself the way it is..

u don't have to carry the big brand name just to justify yourself..

hate social climber,hate someone who just wanna shows up look like socialite when they actually don't..

just be yourself,pay less for something that really good not coz it cost a fortune!

(not that, i against someone who has the branded thingy,but be realistic,if u have 1000$-spend 100 $..its makes sense.but if u got 1000$ but u spend 950$ just for justify yourself/?that's is stupid!)

well...this is what i got from a flea market (and I'm not a shame of it...instead I'm really proud of it! damn!! looking good with less money?!) ---->
me on the left, wearing pink oversize sweater from the flea market...too bad i didn't had the overall pic for this one.. :(
this one...the top (also brought this at flea market) really remind me of Alexa Chung style..and the bag..it is vintage,it was my mum's from her old time..



so.....never judge the looks by the price or label... U LOOKS GOOD WEARING IT...WEAR IT!!NO MATTER HOW LOW THE PRICE OF IT..SELF CONFIDENCE THAT'S THE MAIN INGREDIENT!

my partner and me..

I want to show u the pic of my dearest partner Agnes Sukiant0..she was the one on the left side.This pic taken at hongkong causeway bay just in-front of sogo..just arrived there..very excited!we were going there for business trip..but for this very first night,we took our "me time" to pamper our self by doing sight seeing and taking photograph everywhere until our camera finally shut down..hohoho...

Don't asked me what we were doing the morning after this,we woke up early,got lost for several hours to found the place (which my friend back in Indonesia already recommended to us to go while we in Hongkong, u know..for business thingy..) then finally managed to found it!thanks God! but its not always about business,when the stores were closed and we got our spare time,we brought a wine and snack and ate it in our hotel room.. ( one thing about me that u should know that i always manage to earn money for buying a "cake" and "eat" it too../simple word for this ---> after u work your ass all day long..don't forget to enjoy your life too..coz that's the reason we work at the first place..to be able to enjoy our life..)

INTRODUCTION of ICONIA boutique

I'm a boutique owner here in jakarta: ICONIA boutique (itc mangga dua lt 5 blok a no 146) not satisfied enough with it yet,so i have my goal to expand and keep on creating a own label.well..for this business i don't do it alone,there is my partner agnes who help me a lot during my lazy and didn't wont to get out from"the comfort zone" moment! everyone has it rite? when we have those big goals but too lazy to walk through the process of reaching it..

anyway after this holiday season
(lebaran) we decided to open more branch and create another clothes with our label .coz usually i sell clothes and things imported from Thailand or Hongkong..and after a while on doing that..it isn't much fun anymore that it used to be. (we thought it gonna be like a continuing holiday trip for us girls to shop overseas all the time,but we also got really tired hiks..)

heiyy...did i mentioned?my first launch of ICONIA+ label is this thing:
(this is my friend,endri on the left, with me on the right side..during the makeup over thingy bef the photo shoot!)
THE ONE THAT ICONIA+ DESIGN IS THE SHARP EDGE SHOULDER BLAZER.
didn't get enough clear vision about this blazer?well..let me search more pic of this blazer later on..mean while take this as an introduction of myself coz 80% passion of mine goes to this fashion business..and the rest of it 20% goes to my emotions,travelling,etc...
