So, which one is your favorite? For me, it’s this one.

This red dress is a real favorite. Though I’m not a fan of red color, but this one sure will look good, specially when you know you can order in different color. I personally think this dress is not for a teenager nor for middle age lady. If you’re around 20s until late 20s, it’s the perfect dress for you.

The details on the torso is unique. I think the beads design is not for teenager, but the bow on the waist state otherwise. The layered tulle skirt also not for a middle age woman. So, I think it fits us, young lady, well. It can give us both maturity and youth vibe.

The second dress is this asymmetrical organza dress. The first time I looked at this dress, I really loved the skirt design. It looked glamorous. More over, if you’re a skinny girl, this layered skirt will give you more volume on your hip area.

The torso design is a little bit daring. If you love a unique dress, I think this is the perfect dress for you. It will also give out a glimpse of your body shape, but it’s not too much. If you’re confident enough with a little see though dress, this dress will be perfect.


How’s your opinion?


See you again soon!

Miss Universe 2015 evening dresses

9:18:00 pm


Hello everyone! How’s your day?
Did you watch the preliminarily of Miss Universe 2015? I can’t watch it since I didn’t know about it until the news of Miss Indonesia 2014 won the national costume.


When I heard that, I browsed the internet to see the national costume. A lot of other consestants’ costume also popped up and truthfully, they’re all beautiful. Some are exceptional, and of course Miss Indonesia’s national costume is the best (speaking of nationality and the fact that it was made by my own teacher back in ESMOD – Sir Dynand Fariz).




The details and the meaning behind the design really made me fall in love with the costume.
Read here (only in bahasa):

From the national costume that has been the trending topic all over the internet, I also saw some photos about the contestants’s evening gown.


Still from Miss Indonesia, I found some of her beautiful dresses that I love. All of them are specially made by Indonesia designer, like Anaz Khairunnas, Didiet Maulana, Ivone, Yuana, Anne Avantie, and Dynand Fariz (saw the link above for the news source).

Since I can’t really find the photos of all the dresses Miss Indonesia, Elvina Devinamira wore for the Miss Universe 2015, the options are too small. But, beside the national costume, my favorite is the ‘Silence of Maja’ by Anaz Khairunnas. The detail of the white dress and the story behind the design always amaze me.


These talking about beautiful evening gown reminds me of the collection of Picked Dresses. Visit their website here for amazing collection of prom (and can be used as evening) dresses.

They have a lot of beautiful Montreal prom dresses, don’t you agree? Let me highlight some of my favorite.

This broken white tulle mermaid dress is definitely my favorite. Imagine the color changed into black. A total babe. Not only it will look elegant, but also will give you a dark kind of glamour vibe. The dress will make you look mature and feminine.


My second favorite is this mini white tulle dress.

link: http://www.pickedresses.com/a-line-scoop-short-mini-tulle-beading-prom-dresses-p395.html

The dress still looked so simple even with the beads all over the torso area. As a fan of simple dress, I tend to avoid too much beads on my dress. But this dress is exceptional. In fact, the beads is the reason why I picked this dress! If they didn’t put the beads on the dress, it will be too simple and not eye-catchy. Even with the pretty flower-patterned tulle on the skirt (which why I love this dress so much), without the beads on the torso, this dress will be too simple.


You will not look too childish or too mature with this dress. The dress can bring out the child-like vibe, a feminine side, or an elegant side of you. You can just be yourself and choose which side you want to show.




What do you think? ;)

Picked [Your] Dress!

Hello, everyone! How’s your day? For me, it couldn’t be better. I’m officially on my winter break so I’m pretty much have time to update my blog without worrying about test or homework.





Lately I’ve been strolling around websites when I found this lovely website, pickedresses.  They’re a store based in Canada, and focused on prom dresses. Well, I’m already graduated from high school so you may say I don’t need prom dresses. But hey! These dresses are so pretty that I can’t help myself to share with you guys. Maybe you need one for your upcoming prom, or just a cocktail party, or maybe your family or friend’s wedding party.





As for me, I will never be satisfied with my dresses collection. Everytime there’s a party invitation, I just need the perfect dresses, no? Sometimes I made a tailor-made dresses for the occassion, but sometimes the price is too expensive. That’s why I love to see around the internet to find a good dresses with affordable prices.





So, I strolled down this lovely website and I fall in love with their White Prom Dresses Collection!! I totally love this section because my favorite color is white. We all knew that white resembles purity and elegance. It can be mixed with another color to create another kind of images too.





For example, if you want to create a glamour vibe, you can mix white with gold or silver color (and add some swarovsky there and there). If you want to be a little bit playful, you can mix your white dress with bright color color. Basically you can play with colors for your white dresses to look completely into your taste and style!





Okay, let’s see this sneakpeek of their website!

So, which one is your favorite? For me, it’s this one.


http://www.pickedresses.com/a-line-sweetheart-short-mini-organza-crystal-detailing-prom-dresses-p133.html

I really love the flowers details on this dress, and the bow on the back side. The flowers gave me a feminine touch, but not too much. I specially love how the small touch of the pink and purple color to make the flowers more pop-out.


http://www.pickedresses.com/a-line-bateau-short-mini-tulle-beading-prom-dresses-p930.html

I love the gold beading on this dress. Like I said before, gold color really make your white dress more glamour and elegant. If you want to look more mature without leaving your youth vibe behind, I think this dress is perfect.


http://www.pickedresses.com/sheath-column-v-neck-floor-length-chiffon-sequined-ruffles-prom-dresses-p899.html

This dress is lovely with the chiffon material and some sequined material beneath. With its simple design, it looked more beautiful and elegant. :)




So, have you found your favorites yet?
If you don’t find your favorite yet, don’t worry. Just go and checked their website by yourself. You might find your favorite there! :D Goodluck!
