Late Afternoon

I think it has been a while since I wrote my last favorite blog. I must admit it's hard to spare my time to blogwalk like I used to. So, I found this very nice blog named late afternoon, This girl named Liz from San Francisco has really cool laid back style, She'll remind you of Kate Bosworth, only with longer skirts. Absolutely love her style :)

Spring in New York

which one You've ever been to?

MKA

I grew up watching them from pooping to talking in full house (I even insisted my family called me Michelle), then I watched all of their movies and reading their novels, and now I am drooling on their designs,when will that stop? I guess never, since they're unstoppable.

The pictures are from their Vogue feature 

I really love the third picture 

Did you know their father put Mary-Kate name before Ashley because He didn't want Mary-Kate to feel left behind her older sister (Ashley)?

Floral Trafaluc

In my life there are so many regretful shopping that I have done. From little thing like a tube of hand cream I don't use to ground breaking crazy shopping like this one. Like a month ago I had a nerve breakdown, and what worse I had just got paid. With a debit card in hand and unstable mind I entered Zara with my best friend Annisa, well, you know the rest we went shopping without a care. As the result, I just felt so guilty afterward. period. (frown) However, on the other hand I have bought the best floral drawstring bag and a pair of shoes to match that (well. there's still a cute small flap bag with the same pattern, but I didn't dare to lay my eyes on it) Do you find them as cute as I do?

Should not shop with unstable mind....

Oh Abbey

I am in this super productive mode this weekend..I miss blogging as productive as I used to be. So, I am going to talk about long skrits, Back in 2005 when I started wearing hijab long skirt was not appealing at all, because the kind of skirts available out there was not pleasing my taste. So I opted for trousers and jeans instead. Then, I started my journey of making clothes of my own, by that I mean coming to tailor not sewing it myself. Then later in 2010, I had my first skirt, the one with the Tulip pattern and now I believe I have about 20 of 'em. And today it's all over the runway, 2011 is about  long skirt. My favorite piece is from Jil Sander Spring Summer 2011 with white tees and the simple yet breathtaking long skirts.

Hippie Craze

I love floral  floral maniac. It's just crazy I think it's crazy. A good friend of mine who is currently her having master degree about cultural study said that her lecturer explained that only hippies could consistently  wear floral pattern (I desperately need a journal article about this, to examine myself of course) . She said that she instantly thought of me when she heard that statement. So, Am I a hippie? I don't smoke joint or wear psychedelic pattern DIY tee. So I looked up "hippies" at wikipedia, and this is the result:

The hippie subculture was originally a youth movement that arose in the United States during the mid-1960s, swiftly spreading to other countries around the world. The etymology of the term 'hippie' is from hipster, and was initially used to describe beatniks who had moved into New York City's Greenwich Village, San Francisco's Haight-Ashbury district, and similar urban areas. The early hippie ideology included the countercultural values of the Beat Generation. Some created their own social groups and communities, listened to psychedelic rock, embraced the sexual revolution, and used drugs such as marijuana and LSD to explore alternative states of consciousness.

And I also managed to find some hippie inspired shoots, I should say the pics are rather awesome...

 I just died and went to hippie heaven (it sounds so wrong almost as if I were smoking joint)

Flower Power!
