Ho-Ho-Ho Merry Christmas! #WinterHoliday

Moin, folks!

It's been a tough and blessed year for me, you, and us. Whatever it is, 2015 will finally over. Well, enough about that because holiday is around the corner, or... not -- because long holiday has just begun.

What's your plan? Rest a while at home, travel somewhere else or trip overseas? Doesn't matter as long as you savor your day-off.

Leisure in winter, yet in style is a must! Freezing in cold while winter doesn't stop you looking fashionable. Here, let me tell you some with polyvore.

Trip to Overseas #FashionAirport

Trip overseas as a solo traveler? That's such a brilliant and brave idea. You have to try it once in a while and get new friends in foreign countries.

First thing first, get your passport and cellphone provider ready. Enough cash or you can bring and use CC later for an emergency case out there. Put your wrist-watch on and wear it everywhere to keep your time management right.

Noted: don't miss the flight!

As a fashion people, to keep in style has already been in your blood. But, make sure to travel light, because you have long hours in a plane and next flight to catch while transit. Remember, make yourself comfortable with your attire and outfits.

Brown knit sweater and boyfriend jeans make your looks stay in pleasant way. Stand yourself out with black wool cape, since it's winter. Get notice with all white leather sneakers while walking to the bag check location. No eye-makeup? No big deal; apply matte red lipstick, put the sunglasses on and get your ponytail-hair tied. Red nail polish to look fierce.

Carry the luggage, get checked and tagged. Just grab the boarding pass and hand bag. Last, travel pillow will help you to sleep in a plane and keep away from neck-sprain.

It's a big chance as a solo traveler to blend with others, have a chat. and... voila new friends to walk around at your destination. It could be your getaway while being stressed out.

Bring out the camera, see around, and explore more with black dress and denim jacket. Carry a small wallet  is enough. Since it's winter put the scarf around neck and wear sneakers for comfort-walk. Don't forget sunglasses, because sun is still out there, eh?

Nail polish and lipstick are the most ultimate stuff for holiday. Add more accessories if you like it.

Some words to 0404

Look, I'm drowning myself again in my imagination.

Here's the thing, I don't see him as a stranger at all. I see that person as himself.

Weird, isn't it? We both haven't meet each other, but I feel the connection between us.

Just so you know, love is merely madness.
So far, yet so close.

... My heart beats as the beat goes on

ChaoPUNK 25th!

…..refers to chaotic and punk because she is in a rush to celebrate Christmas.

Not to mention for being bad on Christmas, it just happened when I listened to Punk Goes Christmas Album back in 2013.

Punk is also known as a resistance movement which is based on belief “we can do it ourselves”. Put aside a negative thought about it, because PUNK itself has an impact on high fashion from the movement’s birth in the early 1970s.

So, what can we do for Christmas then? -- Having a sacred holy night at home, visiting you clan or probably going out and chillin’ with clicks.

First thing, it’s important to decide your style and prepare your outfits.

Why don’t you try to celebrate Christmas with ZALORA by enjoying every special offers and exclusive promo for both man & woman, here ZALORA CHRISTMAS GIFT COLLECTION.

Get everything you need with affordable price only for your incredible Christmas Day -- NOW

Be different and chic on your new dashing-look!

Have a Merry Ho Ho Ho ~ ~ ~

K-Style: #FashionAirport

What's in your mind about K-Pop?

A bunch of Korean girl group and boy band that have superb talents in music, dancing, modelling and acting. These boys and girls join an artist management, then get train for many years (ideally 4 years or more). So, they will get use to perform on stage and gain lots of fans. Having superb talents, like singing and dancing aren't the only factors. Good-looking, handsome, pretty, health and proper body-shape are also important to them. Then, how to look more stunning in front the camera and how to catch people's attention?

Well, Idols need something, called makeup and fashion. No wonder. Everywhere they go, Idols have to be look fresh and so fashionable. For going overseas, the fans are waiting hours in the airport, that's why Idols must catch up what they are wearing, even after long flight. Unless, they'll get insult and bad talks. That is what we called Fashion Airport. Ok, let's see what we have here for Korean Idols Fashion Airport.

Just so you know, this application (polyvore.com) help me to mix match any kind of style

Simple girl rock chic look is still appropriate for daily or day wear.

Put more accessories, if you like it; For me it's wrist watch, rings, necklace, earrings (optional)

Get your nail polished with strong color, like maroon.

Having white or pale complexion? Put your red lipstick on.

Still with rockin' style, but a bit feminine-look, cute and sweet.

Less make up for Idols, why not? Just use BB cream.

Looking bright with nice smile on papz camera, put shocking color lipstick (orange or pink).

Mind the chaos in airport, just put your earphone and enjoy your coffee.

You feelin' it? Boyish vibe in your vein. Hip hop boyish-look, the most hip street style nowadays.

For now, don't put too much accessories (let your earrings plug like that and wrist watch).

Show of your hair-style, either it's pixie, bob or long hair.

Black is natural beauty, but why don't you get your hair dyed (blonde, brunette, bronze, etc).

Get your hair shaded ("ombre" look) and it'll be more catchy.

No make up sometimes it's needed; put your sunnies on and polish your lips red. Voila!

Calm and cool aura as walking passed the fans and papz.

Sometimes, girls tend to look edgy and trendy. Even with her attitude.

This kind of style is not only for Idols, but also for models. Traveling and working at the same time.

Mysterious edgy; put your eccentric sunnies and rings to catch people's attention.

Waving and smile are also important, so get your nail polished (try red) and apply your red lipstick.

Flip your hair to right or left. Or choose messy pony tail hair style.

Pick your color- "ombre", burgundy, brunette or blonde.

Leave the comfort zone; try to look different with electric and neon hair color.

Actually, there is still lots of fashion style to capture because it is unlimited. Above are just some of the examples to visualize. Not pretty much look alike or same, but at least these have similarity. These are based on street style.

Kpop has become a global phenomenon. No wonder, nowadays most of people in the world approach their style to K-Style (from head to toe). Moreover, for the fashionista, stylist and k-pop fans.

Global phenomenon in South Korea really has good impact to Korean local designers. That will give them bright and open opportunity to show and expose their art work.

Are you interested in K-style?
