sunday crush.


Hellooo..., it's been a long time since my last outfit post. My husband started to replace me with his Tarantulas, he took great photos of his Tarantula and forget me, hahaha kidding. Oh well, today i saw an old blazer i took from Mom's house last week. It's a blazer she made for my elder sister's 17th birthday, by that time i was 9 years old, so this blazer is like almost 20 years old, wuow. While husband is busy doing his Sunday activity, which is petting, i let my self busy doing this 12secs self timer photo shoot heehehe... All right, enjoy the photos and good nite :)

in the making of...,


I just finished my work for Kartini Edition. Experienced myself doing tie dye for t-shirts, i really enjoy the process, and let me present my very loyal assistant, Bill :). I wish Bill can replace me doing the washing process :p, he actually just walking around my dyeing area and messing around :_D. I designed this collection combining polkadot batik, cotton, Kartini prints and colors from tie dye process. Next week everything is ready to deliver, so i gotta set the photo shoot this week... Oh so excited :D. My plan for the photo shoot is actually more simple than a photo shoot for main collection. As this Kartini Edition is a limited special edition, i only want to set a simple location with strong concept. So..., wish me luck! :)





While Kartini edition is work in progress, i also start sketching and preparing the next collection mid/13. And yesterday some of the sample done, i try them on and everything is just prefect, i love Pak Sodikin my tailor :*. Btw, i created my own turban, i want it a bit different, not exactly turban but a lil bit inspired by hip hop head scarf hehehe. Everytime i wanna make something i can't explain by drawing, i always make a sample by myself, at least it helps my tailor to understand faster. This next collection will taste like a pop jungle. As you can see on below pictures, i add pineapples, flowers and animal prints. Feeling so Tropical :')




I worked 2 weeks nonstop working for Kartini project, the next collection and a little bit of BAM!
The days passed beautifully, and i'm so glad i'm still doing what i love till today.
Here is the sky for you, from today :)...


Love,
DH

Say Hell,Ooo to my Girls.









hell of a lists.


Hello..., it's 8.30pm now, and i just finished with my activity sketching some design for ONLYi new collections. My husband is sleep already, usually we went sleep together, but i think he's too tired doing his afternoon activity sending his Tarantula packages, sending my invoices to client, buy Bill's food stocks, etc. I have lists of future projects, i honestly can't do all the lists by myself, but i have to manage everything myself one by one before i decided to asked for a help from someone else.

Wait a second, Bill is grabbing my hand ask for a rub.

Oh yes, i have few projects coming up. Besides all of the ONLYi business, i planned for my paper line plus home & party decoration project with my sister, i've finished our first theme for the web launch, but i need to manage all my paper & decor portfolio into one nice presentation. Plus, wedding decoration i've made, i haven't share any one of my wedding decoration because i really want my wedding decoration photos to be managed properly, it's 3 wedding party i've already handled, always love doing it :) the last wedding decoration i did 2 months ago was amazing, it's managed properly by the wedding organizer. I like it when i work with professionals ;)

And then BAM! my fun accessories project, if you guys still remember i sell handmade accessories at Alley29 at Plaza Indonesia last year. So... for BAM! i also finished 15 accessories design and they're just ready for the photo shoot.

The next one is my 'SECRET' project, i can't tell you now because it's still in a progress making samples and still look for a possibility to visualize some of my imagination. It's part of bag famil, but i focused on 1 type of bag only, will tell you when it's ready hehehe :D

Next!
I have a big big passion to create one big thing (still in fashion industry) in the name of my lovely Indonesia, my one and only super cool country. So the plan is, i will be using many fabrics from all around Indonesia, not just batik but also tenun and any other traditional fabrics. I will mix everything with daily/casual material such as cotton, will combine everything with Indonesia Heroes images, wayang, and i will add 1 new thing here :), i will make my own computerized batik and print it on fabrics. Sounds so exciting right? This project will be supervised by my Mother :*. I need to learn about traditional fabrics from her and she also very unique in designer her own clothes and almost 90% were using Indonesia traditional fabrics.

Last big thing is my band :).
My husband is doing the mixing for our first 4 song, need to do some revision on the lyrics part, and i need to be 'in the mood' of making lyrics next week. We created 10 song already, but i really really need extra time in concentrating myself get into the art of the sound. I mostly using my eyes for my art sense, now i need to get my ears & voice work more than usual. My husband asked me to practice myself making lyrics while playing guitar, so i can get the soul i wanted. I couldn't use my synthe to make lyrics because the amplifier is only 1 here, phewww. Anyways, i will produced 1000 CD for free and will spread them everywhere, please please do wish me luck for this project becauce this band is been delay like agessss.

So to finish them all nicely, i need to not to take any job such as designing, styling or design graphics, or photography, this year. But still..., 1 last job designing flight attendant uniform for a private jet company is a never ending job ever. But Thank God, my Hanna Montana is always ready to help me, thanks Hanna :) :*, so i let her in charge for this one last job.

Well, that's all my hell of a lists. Writing them down is such a great reminder for myself :D.
I sometime don't remember which one is here, done, deadline, or there. But i realized that i have tons of love that need my concentration and imagination to filled inside each of them. I created it, i want it, so i just enjoy doing it. I actually look for a partner to do one of my project. On paper and decor project, i asked my elder sister to manage this and that. And it's a bit hard to find a loyal type of person with such an attitude and idealism. I mostly met a super rich with poor vision, but it's actually normal, it's sounds better than the last time i've experienced, the poor braggart with poor vision. So i've decided to do everything slowly (means: as fast as i can hehe) but surely fun :D.

I hope you guys are also doing things that makes you happy. Money isn't the first key to keep us happy, so we better balanced our needs. And don't let money rapped your creativity. Keep on producing, keep on dreaming and make life worth to live. See ya :)

Saturday.


I don't know why i really like this word 'Saturday'. It brings me joy when i hear or think about Saturday. Today, in the morning i posted 1 picture on twitter and 1 on path with 'saturday' word as the picture tittle. Almost every Saturday comes like any other day, because i work in the apartment most, so i want everyday is like Saturday. Today, in the afternoon, i also read 'saturday' on poster on the street, and i heard a song say 'saturday' on the lyrics. Just now, before i started to write this post, i just got my eyes a short daily trip to Pinterest, look for beautiful inspiration to post on my blog. So i started to write the post title on the column, i was thinking about 'Satur...', and suddenly in the same time my husband is switching the tv channel, and the actor of the movie says, "it's a beautiful Saturday".
Saturday, it is my blog post title :)

"Darling, what's for Saturday?", i said.

He said, "Gardening.".

Happy Weekend :)
