Who Says Baggy Jeans Are Only For Boys?

Baggy: not fitting closely; hanging loosely; "baggy trousers"; "a loose-fitting blouse is comfortable in hot weather"
"Are you sure those pants are your size?"
"Why are you wearing pants that are too big for you?"

Haha, some of the reactions I got for wearing these jeans but they were made to look baggy. They're exactly my size, but the crotch/back seam is lower. I've always wanted to get myself a pair of boyfriend jeans or baggy jeans but could never find one that was the perfect size until now! Thank you Zara for creating amazing pants (that fit).

Perfect amount of sagging on the back, so it doesn't look too baggy.


I love travelling to new places, I just don't like the process of it. Do you know how tiring it is to travel? Airport transits, airplane food, everything is such a big hassle and it tires me out so much (or maybe since I do it so many times in a year it's not even funny) but seriously. I wish there was a one-way plane ride to every country in the world so we don't have to transit. You know what else I hate? That you need to pretty much strip naked, take out all the contents in your bag, put all of them in separate freaking containers because who knows I might have explosive mentos or something just to get on the freaking plane, put all my watery liquids in a plastic bag that can't weigh more than a feather. THANK YOU TERRORISTS, I hope you're happy now that you've revolutionized airport security. I guess better safe than sorry huh? Sorry for this rant but I just flew back to Hanoi yesterday and realized how much I hated it (being in airports all day). I can't imagine how my friends deal with it when they go back to their home countries halfway around the world. I usually only take half a day to get to Jakarta. Imagine people going to the USA or Europe.

Love how there's a giant suspending digital clock after every meter or so.

Purple Mustard.

Mustard: any of several cruciferous plants of the genus Brassica.

I was thinking more of like, Mustard: ketchup that is yellow; yellow ketchup. 

I've always wanted to get myself a mustard yellow coat, but then I found the next best thing. Yellow mustard suede wedges and they cost about US$20. I absolutely love them, and I think I can play around with colored socks and different colored pieces in my outfit with these wedges!

Shoes Eye-Candy.

Eye-candy: visual images that are pleasing to see but are intellectually undemanding; "he wanted to put some eye candy on their web site".



Can I just say Jeffrey Campbell shoes gives me tingles. In a good way.


This one is really finsk-esque.


Wants to go shopping now,

Black Roses

Roses: any of the wild or cultivated, usually prickly-stemmed, pinnate-leaved, showy-flowered shrubs of the genus Rosa.
I got this dress from my cousin over winter break since she's started a little business with clothes. She bought some samples back to Jakarta and we had a view things to look through, so that was nice. I really like this dress, I think I can wear it formally as well as casually. It has this gorgeous rose detail on the neckline. I usually wouldn't get dresses like this but this one caught my eye.



There's a few ways that you can work a dress like this to make it more casual. I was thinking of an outerwear (coat or blazer), or accesorize (so a belt). I'm still not sure about how it looks though, so what do you guys think?



I think belting it makes the bottom of the dress look really square which kind of looks awkward. Comments? Anyways, so here's the outfit:


Grainy photos look really old school.
