Yvan from the Blog

Something just reminds me on how Yvan Rodic a.k.a Facehunter had put me on his visual diary. Recently he was chosen as one of the most influential fashion bloggers by Vogue magazine! Yee haw!



My pic was on this page on his visual diary: http://yvanrodic.blogspot.com/2009/11/jakarta-november-2nd-2009.html . It feels kinda nice cuz he did put the picture of my hand writing on an Amica notebook on the diary--it should be a forget-me-not for Amica in his mind as well!

Once again, congrats to you Yvan! And thanks for inspiring me to grab my digicam wherever I go--at least starting tomorrow.

Cheers,

Say CHIC :)

I never thought a super-classic and conventional brand as Hermes would have the idea on defining their unbeatable immortal luxury vibe in a hobby gadget like camera. A big challenge for us, fashion and trend followers yet great style owners, to imagine what it might felt like to actually have the thing.

A Hermes scarf made more sense, as it would be the only signature piece from Hermes which is quite affordable yet worth enough to be bought. A bag with a Hermes logo is a super you-will-keep-it-for-the-rest-of-yours-and-your-grandchildren-lives 'it' bag. A shirt with a Hermes logo on it would shout a question like, "Gee, you have the money to have a super 'it' shirt?" from people around you. But a Hermes camera, now that would be out of this earth.


Beautiful, not so-out-there, catchy, simple, Leica, and Hermes. Perhaps a Hermes look and a Leica M7 function would transform every click it captured from ordinary moments to pictures of dreams. Launched last December 2009, this camera has two colors (orange and brown) with only 100 pieces produced in each color.

You can own this collector-destined pieces with 'only' US$14000. Dare to dream and trap your moments in luxury? :)

Say CHIC!!!

My Debut (Album)

The January-February edition of AMICA Indonesia would be a true historical piece for me. Styling has always been my true dream ever since I first fell in love with fashion--I was a fifth grader back then. I used to style up in friends' shoots or gigs for their bands, but it was not the same now.

AMICA had turned into a little weird part of me now--yeah, weird. It used to be the magazine with Michael Pondaag's spread I used to worship and admire. I remember one of the best spreads I have ever seen, styled by him--it was titled "The Kebaya". I didn't have the picture though, but as you could see me writing about him in my second post of this blog, you would know how I have been a big fan of his spreads. He made his great spreads in AMICA, a magazine that I loved, that I enjoyed so much to see. Strangely, it has been a part of me now.

As I made my debut in AMICA Indonesia, I showed the world the very first spread that I made. Something I worked on with love and tenderness, heartbeats with bits of fright; just like how a new Mom held her very first child, i think--not that I knew how it felt like. I didn't have any idea on how it might came out and published. I never thought about how people would say things about it. I do care, but I have no braveness to hope.

But it was my first time, no matter what. And this, Eclectic Structure, will always be my first ever spread in my history of published styling, no matter how it might be judged.

I dedicate this spread to my parents, and also my fellas who were there when I was out and learning, when I was running here and there whilst dreaming; Bilawa Ade Respati, Mita Diran, Andry Alamsyah, Krisna Satmoko, Chandra Prawendha, Sarah Paramitasari, Andhini Putri, Nasha Adinda, Rinda Salmun, Marina Tasya Avianty, Rajani, Jo, Christina, Praew, Giulia, and Erola. I thank you.

Wish me luck, this was only the beginning. I still have so much to learn.

cheers,

rather ride than drive.

oh. my. God.
I want that one.

And it's a 17-thousand bucks piece.

Oh God. Oh God. Oh God.

I can't ride bikes but I'm SOOO gonna learn to ride it IF I have this.

Maybe we shall have these bikes given away, I guarantee all the young women in the world would dump their cars and have these as a replacement. Beneficial for the eye, beauty, and environment.

Agree?

SPRING SUMMER 2010 -- The New Burberry, The New Vibe of Brits.

Celebrating the 25th anniversary of London Fashion Week, Burberry Prorsum had the le grande credibility on having its show as the closing scene. Presented by Christopher Bailey, this collection showed the young, dynamic, and glamorous angle of the classic british identity of Burberry Prorsum.

Having Emma Watson, Gwyneth Paltrow, Victoria Beckham to Daisy Lowe filling up the front-row seats, I consider this the best collection the empire of Burberry had ever launched. Playing up bravely with soft-structured lines of draperies and ruffles, combining different textures to materials from satin to sheer ambience, pop-socks and platforms as the sole effect, with a bit of shine and sparkle to add the young spirit, I fell instantly in love with this Burberry collection.

Wont say much more on this, I'll just take you on the best details I found in Burberry Prorsum show in London Fashion week last September.



This is the shine, this is the rhyme. This is the classic beat of Burberry. The everlasting vibe that Brits will always have, no matter how much McQueen, Westwood, or Kane could steal every fashionista's love at first sight. Young, glamorous, luxe, yet classic.

This is still Burberry Prorsum. The Burberry of London.

Cheers,
