Batik * Jeans Jacket

Believe it or not. I bought this batik dress several years ago, but I have not worn it yet even once. There was no idea to wear it until I found my old blue denim jacket. Just mix those two items from my closet, and now I am totally ready to having dinner with my friends. Since the air is chilly in the beginning of the month, using socks will warm my feet while I am out. Finally, I can't wait any longer to eat the dishes. Yay!!!

Dimas Diajeng * Batik Day

All Indonesians commemorate batik day on every October 2nd by wearing batik as cultural heritage. Therefore, several days ago my friends and I became model to celebrate batik day. We totally showed that batik can be worn for working, hanging out, or attending party. Love batik more and more..!!!

Batik * Ied Mubarak

Yeah, finally fasting month was over approximately one week ago. During Ramadhan, as a Muslim, I was prohibited from eating and drinking from dawn to sunset. But by fasting i learned a lot that i have to sympathize with those less fortunate ones who do not always have food and drink readily available. Another lesson was that i have to control desires such as hungry, thirsty, and a-n-g-e-r (the most difficult to be done). Xoxo... Then, after fasting for one month, I was  absolutely happy meeting Ied Mubarak 1432 H. Happy gathering with my all relatives. They're from Makasar, from Jakarta, and sure, from Yogyakarta coming and staying at my home. Just let's welcome the guests wholeheartedly. Anyway, that was the best moment to request forgiveness each other for our mistake throughout the year. Not only with our family members, but  also with our friends and our neighbours whoever they are...^_^

Batik * Tamansari Watercastle

Long time ago, Tamansari Watercastle was a recreation garden or a resting house for Sultan and his family. Not only just a recreation, but it's also a compound of bathing pool, canals, rooms and large swimming pool. Built by Portuguese architect in European aquatic construction, Tamansari’s also adorned with Javanese symbolize ornaments. From Tamansari, we can go upstair and see the beautiful scenery of Yogyakarta. Oh, last week I came here to take a lot of photos. Xoxo.. How narcissistic I am. I wore my batik skirt that I ever wore before. I really love this batik so much. That’s why I couldn't stop myself taking photos. Click click...

Batik * Bolero Inside Out

Yes, finally, I can show proudly my favorite batik which was bought unplanned last week. I just took a walk with my boyfriend when I found this bolero batik and fell in love right away either its color or its motif. Actually, there were same designs over there, yet it turned out batik tulis (hand drawn batik). I chose this bolero batik because  it’s cheaper than batik tulis and good quality thing too. But my bolero is not printing batik, instead it is stamped batik made by craftsman step by step. Wow, I got such a beautiful batik with friendly price. Happy ^_*

@ Roemah Pelantjong

I was the only one who didn't wore batik in the launching of Roemah Pelantjong. Actually, I intended to wear batik like usually I did. But my friend told me about wearing free dresscode, therefore I thought "free" at here meaning that I had to wear ordinary outfit. Without more confirmation, I was so confident to wear pink blouse combined with brown pants. Whereas all my friend had conspired to wear batik before. Finally, when I came to Roemah Pelantjong, I was surprised finding myself different. Xoxo... Very embarrasing...@_@

*Tourism Ambassador*

On June, I followed Tourism Ambassador of Yogyakarta Election named Dimas Diajeng which was held at City Hall. There were a lot of activities done by me as a finalist when the judging started. Together with my all companions, we made programs to promote Yogyakarta such as "Visiting Museum", "Come on Making Batik", and "Eco-Green Tourism". Those are really unforgettable experiences that I ever had. But... after finishing my routine during that time, I should check my blog and write something interesting, instead I slept on my bed. Honestly I was exhausted!
