1N1D with Vodka the Frenchie

Introducing Vodka the French Bulldog to our blog! (lol it rhymes)
She's so cute, isn't she? Now, she ain't ours alrite, she belongs to Elle's bff Jane. But mommy Jane kindly gave us permission to kidnap this cutie pig pie for 1N1D lolll.

So, here are some photos of Vodka a.k.a Vodvod (even her nickname sounds fatty omgomg how could you Janeeeeee) upon her arrival:
"Who that?" asked Vodvod, observing Nicky curiously.
Smile!
Elle picked her up at 01 AM* after her meet-up with Jane and when she arrived home, Jess was ultra shocked cause the story she heard about Jane's dog making snore sounds all the time was 100% TRUE!! Like; walking *snores*, sniffing *snores*, running *snores*, and so on. Googled about that and got an instant confirmation here: "French Bulldog sounds. Because of their short face, most French Bulldogs snort, snuffle, wheeze, grunt, and snore loudly. The sounds are endearing to some people; nerve-wracking to others." -- well, it was definitely endearing to all of us who met her! ♡♡♡
*hence the title (1N1D instead of 1D1N)

Okay, gotta be honest that Frenchies might not be the prettiest, but some would surely agree that they ARE the FUNNIEST. Aside from their physical appearance that resembles a mixed breed of a cow, a rabbit, a dog and of course, a PIG, they make goofy poses like these:

 Good night! *grokkkkk*

The next morning:
*grokkk.....*
Awe, you still sleepy? *grok grok*

Well, fasten your seatbelt, Vodka, cause we're going to take you to our outfit photoshoot (yep, as a model, too)! XD
On Elle: UNIQLO Ultra Stretch Color Jeans | Plaid Shirt belongs to our brother ;)
GOWIGASA Dual Pocket Sleeveless Button Up in white, Rayray Sunglasses, NY Cap Blue, Denim Everyday Shoes (coming soon on our website)

So intoxicated by her cuteness, each of us decided to make a video with her too!

Finally, it was time to return her home. :'(
Thank you, Jane, for letting your baby stay over at our place! See you soon, Vodvod! *kisssssssssssssssses*

[Bonus] Latest news from Vodka: She just got her first period!! XD

Airport Outfit feat. UNIQLO Ultra Stretch Jeans

Traveling long hours might not what you have in mind when you're going somewhere far away. You might have packed what you need when you reach your destination, be it bikinis, winter coats, stilettos, and so on. But have you seriously considered your airport looks? In order to survive a long flight, we think you should. :)

// Points to Remember //
1. You want to feel comfortable because you're going to spend hours sitting / sleeping / trying to get along with your seat there. Therefore, comfort should come first.
2. You want to look stylish all the while being comfortable. Now why should I be stylish, you ask. "It's just for the airport. I'll BE stylish when I reach my destination". Nuh uh, you WANT to look good (or decent, at least) ALL the time, because boy, you never know who you might bump into. Could be an enemy or a prospective lover. Who knows?
2a. A derivative from point 2: it doesn't hurt to bring or put on some SOS items, such as hats, sunglasses or hair ties. This will save you from unwanted situations like puffy eyes from lack of sleep or messy-limp hair from too much sleep lol.

So what kind of outfit that combines both elements into one? Enter UNIQLO Ultra Stretch Jeans.
Quoted from UNIQLO's web about these stretchy pairs: "Leg-defining for the cleanest and skinniest silhouette - hugs snugly from thigh to ankle. You’ll always have ease of movement and the most perfect fit."

Sounds too good to be true for a pair of denim? Well, we're here to find out for the Airport Outfit Challenge -which requires both comfort and stylish look!
On Elle:  ZARA Cropped Brown Sweater & Brown Beanie | Jeffrey Campbell Everly Beige Cutout Boots | New Look Necklace
UNIQLO Ultra Stretch Color Jeans in Olive (Dark Green)

UNIQLO Ultra Stretch Color Jeans in Khaki (Brown)

So, does it live up to its claim? Yes. Does it meet the requirements for the Airport Outfit Challenge? Gotta say YES!! It's been a long time since we treat ourselves to an awesome pair of jeans that brings comfort yet looks pretty as well. We mean, look at those colors! Perfect shade of olive green and khaki? Boy, do they know how we love earth colors... and considering how hard it is to find these colors on jeans (with great material as well), it must be our lucky day. The comfort level is amazing, too. The material is pretty thick, yet SOFT and elastic. Hate to pick up quotes, but it DOES 'hugs snugly from thigh to ankle' lolCan't wait to put them on for our next flights and pair em with other outfits as well! :D

Now, do you know that UNIQLO is currently having this exciting event called "USJ Fit Model"? You get to have fun trying on a pair of Ultra Stretch Jeans of your choice (there are many color choices and various sizes), posing with it and get your pictures taken by a professional photographer on site, get your best pic printed for free AND (as if it's not enough) get the chance to WIN FREE USJ worth of IDR 499,000 or UNIQLO Shopping Vouchers! FYI, Jess won the IDR 50,000 voucher and Elle won the Free USJ!! It was a happy day for all of us. Check out our pics on UNIQLO's Facebook (yes, it's shared on their Fb as well. Dream of being a UNIQLO model? Check!)

This FREE event lasts from 26 Sept - 06 October 2013 and is located at Lotte Shopping Avenue (Kuningan, Jakarta). So hurry up and join the fun! :D :D

Elle and Jess Back to Black

So..? What do you think? ^^

Okay, first of all, yes, those are wigs. Few days ago, when we posted our pictures wearing them for the first time (see it here and here), some people thought they're for real lol. Well, they do look and feel pretty real to us, too. AND as you might know already that changing your hairstyle could really change the way you look, our dear brother was dead stunned when he saw Elle walking out of the elevator. Jess' bf didn't even dare to greet her when he picked her up at our apartment lobby. Both of them thought they saw someone who look completely similar with us, only with different hair lololol.

On Jess: GOWIGASA Black Floral Dress and Sheer Black Stocking
Swaychic Heels

Well to be honest, it felt like a looooong time since the first time we coloured our hair (circa 2011), so maybe because of that, when @nonataliashop offered to sponsor us, we both picked these black ones in a blink, without even telling each other beforehand! Talk about telepathy.

Both our wigs have the same color: Jet Black. Even our natural hair color is not as black as this lol. Maybe because we did a lot of outdoor sports back then.. But THIS jet black color totally gave us a shock when we first tried it on. "So this is how we'd look like with @bellevalencia's* hair..." we thought.
*our cousin whom shiny-healthy-always-perfect hair should really be insured

We think black gives you this cool-mysterious-girl look, which is why we paired it with these outfits. But you know what, after this sudden Back to Black sessioneven though some people convincingly said that we look better in black, we actually got ourselves *even* reassured that we look better in our colored hair.

Ah well, it's all simply a matter of taste, right? ;)
