Wharf!

Hi! Introducing my over 10 years bff @SiskaYap :D
Sorry in advance for the not-so-good quality pictures because they were all taken with camera phones ^^;
honey & me
I'm wearing White Musk Top from GOWIGASA, by the way :D
We spent last Saturday night together at this unique beachfront restaurant:
Look at all those woods! The creative interior design consists of a hanging boat, rope bridges (yes, those swinging ones!), treehouses, cute orange liferings, and so many other playful-nautical things that really makes us feel like we're inside a ship - which is awesome, because right outside this restaurant, there is a direct access to a beautiful, white sand beach.

Okay, after musing about the place for awhile, we gals had our girltalk dinner and of course; Camwhore Attack: BEGIN!
Since the owner is our friend, he let us make our own drinks during the camwhoring session yayyy!
Honey and her successfully made Long Island Iced Tea 
My turn!
Ok, to explain how fun and silly it was, here's a 2 mins video we made out of it -->

Had a really fun night! XD
Special thanks to Mr. Kalaha. Success for this splendid restaurant of yours! :D

Convivium Cafe Deli

I've heard about this homey-looking restaurant located in the Panglima Polim area of South Jakarta for so long, and it was wonderful that I finally had a chance to go.

The first thing I noticed as I stepped in was the warm atmosphere and how cute the decor was (always love it when people pay attention to detail). If the sun was still up, I'd probably take more pictures!

Oh well, with or without sun, I'm still a narcissistic little girl.




Wearing my new soft-lenses from GOWI LENS: WMM-305. Love love love it.

Tasting the famous Red Velvet and well, I'm not a big fan of cake but I gotta say it is worth to try!

A FRESH NEW YEAR

Wow it's been a looooong time since my last post! Feel pretty awkward typing this right now.
Ok let's begin with: HAPPY NEW YEAR, EVERYONE!!! Can you believe it? It's actually 2012!
Have you made your resolutions yet? I know I haven't, and I won't. It's hard for me to stay committed to long term goals, so I usually just let it flow! :D *cheers to those who nod along*
But for those of you who already have a list of New Year's Resolutions and want to fulfill them successfully, you might want to take a look at this post for some useful tips.

Anyway, we are going to upload GOWIGASA's New Arrivals tomorrow, and here's a tiny sneak peek for it!

Find out which items in this picture that are going to be in store tomorrow! :D

Instantly become a bulky bag with the jacket in it.

One word: L♥VE!!!

 Don't you think the person who invented Eyeliner is a pure genius?
Speaking of it, I always prefer liquid to pencil because it lasts longer, and my favorites are from Make Up For Ever and MAC.

A little addition:
If you haven't read our latest post, GOWIGASA (our online shop) is having its very first GIVEAWAY for 10 lucky winners with a total prize of IDR 3.000.000!! :D

Hope you can join and help us spread the love! Xo.
