KarinaPalle — Tue, 15 Sep 2009 07:42:26 -0700

Meet Noomie (Noemi Manalang), she's a a fashion student, artist and a nature lover. She loves painting watercolor fashion illustrations and nature with a simplistic style. She don't mind spending my time making artworks because she enjoy it. She Hopes, she will be able to share wonderful things through her art.

I find Noomie on my shout box, she puts up the link to her Etsy shop, I instantly fell in love with her works upon entering. Her art works is so unique because she always link her creation with the recent fashion trend. "meet Sasha" is one of her many creation that I adore. This is what she wrote about Sasha on her blog:

"Sasha is one posh girl. Her favourite colour is black.
She likes to dress up in sexy outfits from designer brands.
Now she's all dressed up in a black sequined number by Emanuel Ungaro.

Her Chanel 2.55 bag is an essential for a day out.

She walks the streets fierce with her black studded Louboutin suede ankle boots."

Dewi Sri Spa by Martha Tilaar

KarinaPalle — Fri, 17 Jul 2009 19:33:37 -0700

Indonesians have been using rice as a part of their beauty regimen as it contains various vitamins and minerals that s beneficial for the skin. The rice's chemical structures are similar to ceramide, a family of lipid molecules that contributes to the skin's regeneration process and growth of new skin cells. Furthermore, rice extract is also able to increase the the collagen production which in turn would increase the skin's elasticity and erase the dullness.

Crochet Candies from Sibebo

KarinaPalle — Fri, 17 Jul 2009 03:25:12 -0700

I think I need to change the tag line in my blog. It says that it's my journey of finding interesting goodies from Indonesia, but lately it is not me who find them, it's the other way around. Somehow THEY found ME. Well I think it is what you call the "Law of Attraction". And this is what happen with this latest findings... she visit my blog and gave a shout...and as usual I always visit back when there's a link...and on entering I'm bitten on what she have on site. I contacted her to buy the earrings and some necklace (it is still on the way)..I'll update later.

Modern Twist of Indonesian Fabric from Geulis

KarinaPalle — Wed, 15 Jul 2009 07:24:31 -0700

I first find their products when I was having breakfast at Citos last Saturday. I was with my three years old and my husband, waiting for me to shop is not an option for them...hmmm (poor mama) but I manage to get their name card and contact them by email. I really like their collection of clothes, the cutting and design is so modern and yet they are using traditional Indonesian clothes such as Batik, Lurik and Tenun.

They don't have a website but they do have a group on facebook with the photos of their designs in it... but I tell you the photo did not do justice to the real product. I have seen it I know... :) You can order their clothes trough their facebook account or you can find them at local bazaar/exhibition at various mall around Jakarta (they usually announce it on their FB account)

I came back again about a couple days ago an I got bitten by Ciciero's fever...I suddenly want almost every thing they have... and reading the reviews on Fashionese Daily Forum.. I decide to put an order. After lots of consulting with the owner I decide to buy the Farah bags in Grey (the one above)... I still want a lot more, but hey lets try this one first... They have such a beautiful and stylish bags with such an affordable price, my head is spinning of confusion... I just put an Order, maybe the bag will arrive tomorrow...(I'll put an update after I receive the bag)
