CANDY COLORS

As some of you might already know, I'm a HUGE fan of colors; and it has subconsciously affected GOWIGASA's (our online store) collection to be colorful too! :)

Here's a teaser for the upcoming arrivals, featuring our new candy shoes from DECIMAL Shoes! We really love the colors and design of the shoes because they are suitable for casual to semi-formal occasions. Psst they are also amazingly comfortable! Do check their collection, they have so many beautiful yet affordable shoes!

Back to School

So often I wish I went to school where I could wear whatever I wanted. Most schools in Indonesia (including mine) require their students to wear uniform. I personally think that wearing a uniform is a ridiculous rule because it limits students' self-expression and not everybody is comfortable with their school's uniform.

Fyi, I went to school where the female students had to wear a 5cm-below-the-knees skirt uniform (min.) and it must be worn with black shoes that are 'specially' manufactured by them -horribly. We were also not allowed to dye our hair, wear accessories (even small earrings would be confiscated by those killer teachers), make-up, or even colored soft-lenses.

There were so many ridiculous rules that made me hated my school, but when I think about them now, they're kind of funny. After all it was the place where I found my best friends. :)

Details in the Fabric

Calm down, deep breaths and get yourself dressed instead of running around.

If it's a broken part, replace it.
If it's a broken arm, then brace it.
If it's a broken heart, then face it.

If anybody asks me what's my favorite break-up song, my answer will always be "Details in the Fabric" by Jason Mraz. The song brings me into so many emotional levels, especially when I get upset and can't think clearly. It encourages me to move on from the situation, always remember to 'hold your own, know your name' (knowing your value and believing in yourself), and that eventually 'everything WILL be fine'. Everything happens for a reason. You may not see the reason now, but in time you will.

It's a bittersweet song. It's really sad, but it's hopeful.

That's what makes it so beautiful.
