Elle's Japan Outfit #1

Hi guys!!
Finally this blog is alive again, hehe.. We hope you've been doing well!! X
Honestly we are a bit confused as to what we have to blog first about our Japan trip, because we took like thousands of photos and we haven't decided yet how are we going to post them in this blog (in chronological order or per-activity or maybe every place we visited deserves its own blog post? hmm...)

That being said, I think I am going to post every outfit I wore in Japan in separate blog entries (like this one).
However I didn't get a chance to snap pictures for each outfit due to many different conditions, e.g. forgot to bring my camera, was in a hurry, it was already night time (I'm not a fan of camera flash), was too busy enjoying every bit of Japan that I forgot to take any photos, etc etc.

SO, for that forgotten outfits I'm going to take the photos in Jakarta!!! (no yay? okay...)

About this outfit:
☺ I wore it when we went to Shibuya 109 for the second time and Akihabara (Anime slash geek heaven).

☺ The location of this shoot is near our 4th hotel (Sunroute Plaza Shinjuku) before we took off to the train station.

☺ Actually I put on my black coat over my outfit when I was going out because the weather was freaking cold outside. And if you noticed, I also wore nude stockings to cover my legs. 

☺ Top, black leather skirt, skull studded bag from GOWIGASA // Rivet denim jacket from Romwe // Boots from Japan // Socks from Uniqlo.

GOWIGASA updates:
We will upload our new arrivals as soon as possible (sorry to have kept you waiting!). The photoshoot hopefully can be done this week. Please follow our Twitter and Instagram (@gowigasa) to keep updated! :)♥

RED VELVET

There are so many trends happening this Fall, and one of my personal favorite is... Velvet! Yes, how could you not love the fact that it adds a richness and elegance to any look– no matter what color you choose? :)

Can't stress enough how much I love this pair of platforms from Swaychic! The true color is more like the ones in the full-body photographs above.

Anywayyy, the VIDEO that I was talking about is up on our YouTube channel!

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

Before Sunset

GOWIGASA floral pattern top, Bianca skirt, Dylan bag in burgundy | Chicnova mustard cardigan | Laceorie Patrice Black Floral

All these photos were taken before sunset, but I'm typing this literally before sunrise.
I'm so sleepy and tired to the point where I can't think straight right now. But I CANNOT fall asleep as I have to catch a flight in about 3 hours! *URGH where's my cookie jar!!*

By the way, as you can see above, I was playing with patterns today! I always think pattern makes an outfit interesting and fun to wear. <3
I also love the idea of mixing pastels with dark or bright colors!

The mustard cardigan from Chicnova is so soft, I think I will bring it with me on this trip.
And the shoes! This is my first time to wear heel-less high heels! They are surprisingly comfortable, I've tried walking in them for like 6 hours. And definitely a head-turner, lol. Make sure to check them out: Laceorie ♥

Ok, Moon River just played on my playlist all of a sudden. It's like the universe is telling me to go to bed.

Well, I think I'm just going to watch Running Man to freshen up a bit.

To end this entry, here is a photo of beloved Audrey Hepburn as Holly Golightly in Breakfast at Tiffany's, singing "Moon River":

"Two drifters off to see the world.
There's such a lot of world to see."

Fall into Floral

"If there's one Summer trend that shows no signs of wilting, it's the floral print."

 –Fabsugar.com

 

Today I decided to wear this floral blazer from GOWIGASA which I think the overall color is perfect for fall season– darker hue and not too many colors in the print. And to make it even more complete, I added the "it" color for fall... yes, burgundy that is. :)

GOWIGASA Floral Blazer and Gold Wave Necklace

I was trying to put on my burgundy hat from PullandBear, but apparently it cast a shadow over my face. Sorry hat, there will only be one picture of you in this post.

Urgh I hate it when the wind blows against my face when I am taking pictures. But I guess this one turned out okay? The hair-covering-half-of-face reminds me of Jessica Rabbit though!

...of course my face is not that sexy/seductive lah.

Anyway, the details of the outfit:

GOWIGASA Vintage Purse Bag. Really love the vintage yet elegant feel of this bag ♥

Ending the post with a close-up photo of Swaychic Red Velvet Ankle-Strap Platform. I am so in love with these shoes! They are so pretty and delicate, but at the same time fierce and dramatic. Thank you Swaychic!! ♥

Strawberry Bustier

Yes! There are strawberries on my bustier! How cute is that?!
I mean, the cutting of the bustier itself is cute enough already, and you topped it off with strawberry patterns?? *cuteness overload*

Toned down the cuteness by adding black accessories (leather jacket, studded belt and bowler hat.)

*took off jacket to show you a more detailed look of the bustier*

(plus the weather was killing me)
