EL Kabron Restaurant and Cliff Club, Bali


Finally got the time to blog about this uber cool place I visited when I went to Bali last March: EL Kabron (Spanish) Restaurant and Cliff Club. Let's start with the place!!

The entrance.
The location is very secluded, or should I say, well hidden. It wasn't that easy to find this place as there weren't any signboards whatsoever our taxi driver even had to ask several people to point out which road should we take to get there.

After going through the bad remote roads, we finally reached this place!!
The indoor area with a bar at the upper left. Half of the indoor area was being renovated due to the storm attack!
Here's where the beauty of EL Kabron kicks in... The Outdoor. We arrived there at around 3pm on weekdays so it wasn't crowded at all! :D
A swimming pool that resembles the shape of a sunny side-up egg.
That could be you ;)
Lilac bean bag chairs! Adorable or what?! I wish I could take one home!!
The newspaper hanging on the glass walls (upper left) and the people working in green shirts are what I was talking about: the place was being renovated. Fortunately there wasn't any disturbing noise coming from it :)
Me with my orange mix strawberry juice– just the way I like it! Oh by the way, we chose to be seated at the table first because it's more convenient to eat, and after that we moved to the bean bag near the pool to enjoy the scenery.
THIS is the only food I can eat there (Las Bravas del kabron - Spanish Fries with mayonaise and spicy sauce) as I was being a vegetarian back then /sob. But it was deliciousss, like salty and spicy with a bit of schweet, LOVE IT!
 //Moving on to the outfit...

Actually it was VERY windy out there, so here are some of the decent outfit shots I got after many failed attempts with my hair covering my face.

Mitchy-matchy with the bean bag chairs.
Some people asked me if I was out of my mind wearing those shoes to the "beach"? The answer is no. They are unbelievably comfortable and easy to walk in :) 
I'm wearing Princess Mimi Bambi Grey contact lenses (WMM-305) from GOWI LENS.
And how about the sunset?

Many reviewers on Trip Advisor raved about how amazing the sunset there, but unfortunately for me, the weather was not so pleasant when I went there, so this was pretty much what I got ⤵

The sun was covered by dark clouds before it started raining a few minutes later and all of us had to move inside. T___T
I hope the second time I go there the place will be fully renovated, the weather will be at its best and I won't be on my period!

Aztec Bralette

Amber Avenue aztec bralette | Romwe pink skirt | Gowigasa purse bag | Forever21 gold chain necklace | Michael Kors gold watch
GOWIGASA Alexa purse bag

If you feel like you have seen this bralette somewhere, you've probably seen it from this post.
Yes, I'm wearing my current favorite bralette from Amber Avenue for like the 10th times, because I just love it that much!! And I'm pretty sure you will catch me wearing it again. ♡


Moving on to the bottom half of the outfit, I wanted to throw something that screams "FUN!" to tone down the sexy vibe that comes from the bralette. And I think every girl can agree that there is no color more fun than hot pink! ;D
(Thank you Romwe!)
By the way, Jess and I have made a VIDEO for you guys!! Hopefully we will put it up soon, so stay tuned! :D

COINCIDENCE // Kristine's Collection Giveaway! (CLOSED)

Kristine's Collection blue textured blazer | Topshop polkadot high-waisted skirt | Amber Avenue aztec bralette | Gowigasa gold spike necklace | Marc by Marc Jacobs bag | Steve Madden cobalt blue wedges
No idea what my left hand is doing there...

Coincidences happen to us all the time; and the most recent one that happened to me is this outfit you just saw up there.

It started when an online store from Singapore, Kristine's Collection, kindly offered to be my blog sponsor. I was very excited because not only their collection is a treat for the eye, but you can also see that the fabric is well-made and the cutting is excellent as well!

...and boy was I right. When the package has arrived, without further ado, I tried them one by one and they ALL fit my body perfectly! Especially the blue textured blazer that immediately made its way to my "Favorite Outerwear" list.

What I had in mind at that moment was, "I want to pair it with printed bottoms." And so there you go, I picked out my Topshop polkadot high-waisted skirt and my new Aztec Bralette from Amber Avenue; then the next morning before I went to Plaza Indonesia, I took a few shots of the outfit to post it on my (neglected) blog.

On my way to the mall, I browsed Kristine's Collection web store to see if there were any new arrivals, but instead I found this –a list of photos from fashion bloggers who has featured Kristine on their blogs. One of them is Tricia Gosingtian (one of my favorite fashion bloggers) who really surprised me to the core. She wore this exact blue blazer and she also paired it with polkadot print bottoms!! I was like... "WHAT.IS.THIS!!?" and I was thinking about changing the bottoms and redo the shoot all over again because I was afraid I would be accused of copying her! But after a lot of thought and consideration, I just laughed it off as it is pure coincidence that comes at a completely shitty time.


Kindly join our new GIVEAWAY on Facebook (Elle and Jess) to win IDR 150.000 worth of Kristine's Collection E-Vouchers!! ;D♥

ps. You will need to login to your Facebook account first! :)
