I've Got a Pocket Full of Sunshine

Contrary to what I'm feeling right now, that outfit photos taken a few weeks back really screamed "LOOK AT ME I'M HAPPY AND YOU SHOULD BE TOO!" Well, for the record, we all should be happy, really.

I was hooked the first time I saw these pants in eX, Jakarta. Major Minor is one of Indonesian local brands that I just discovered that day. They had amazing prints on their garments and this pair is one of the examples. I just loved my new pants, especially since tartan/plaid is currently at the top of the trendy fashion chain. Clashing patterns is also taking its hits now, hence the stripes and plaid in the same look. For all I know, I'm getting used to mix more than two patterns in one outfit. I like it a lot, it 'un-bores' me.

'Til next post.

Aspirations

Children dream very big. Children wanted to be an astronaut, they wanted to be a pilot, a president. It wasn't wrong at all, inspiring even, but only a very few of them who'd make it to their first big dream. I admire people who still dare to do so--to dream big--even when they know the obstacles that will come their way to achieve their goals in life are countless. Because lately I've felt myself sliding off on one of my ultimate desires. I need that something to trigger myself, to motivate myself, to keep going and not stop dreaming. I want to be like those children. To dream without limits.

October Picks

I browsed through ASOS after 3 months not opening it, and I found some pieces I would love to have for this Autumn/Winter season. After I compiled the pictures altogether, I realised there was a colour palette going on, like oxblood, mustard, black, and teal. I was also looking for some patterns here and there to spice up any boring plain stuff. Mixing patterns is one of my favourite things to do now. Now what are your picks of this season?
