The Summer Dress

Summer is near! And I am obsessed with my new dress I got from WHITE MODE. I actually already worn it on my previous post when I travelled to Batam. This time I wore it differently. Not too much talking, the picture says it all. 

I wore the dress with cute black open toe heels. It is from Charles & Keith. 

I love the color and the pattern.

Reminiscing AMANDA BYNES [PART 1]

One day I checked on my Youtube and randomly found a very first interview of AMANDA BYNES after 4 years got off from the spotlight. Since then I started to miss watching her old movies and series. For me, she was magnificent and genuinely funny. I always fully entertained watching all of her movies. I don’t want to debate about what has happened to her on the past 4 years and her controversy because that’s not my interest. I just want to do a little flash back about who she is and how her talent jollied me.

Amanda Laura Bynes, she is the youngest daughter born from parents Richard and Lynn Bynes. Her parents worked as a doctor and assistant at one of dental clinic. She’s got one brother named Tommy Bynes whose age 10 years older and one older sister, Jillian, she’s also study acting. Her acting talent was obtained from her father who also practiced stand up comedy. She lived with a Catholic and Jewish family, made it picked her choice to follow her mother as a Jewish. Amanda has time to move to an apartment in Hollywood with her dog Midge, but it didn’t took her too long, she moved back to her family’s home

When she was 12, Amanda already had her own live action comedy called “The Amanda Show”. This show was successful in many countries such as USA, Australia, Netherlands, UK and Canada. That show was also ever become the most popular variety program on North America through 1999 – 2002. 

The Amanda Show (1999 - 2002)

I remember watched The Amanda Show, it’s really funny and unusual. Especially whenever she played as Judge Trudy I would laugh the hell out of my lungs. The Girl’s Room scene was always be the funniest, the school's girls squad consisted of four young students led by Amanda who often spent their time at rest room and made a joke to random stuffs. Even sometimes this show played the joke too far but it’s still entertaining. 

 

After gained succeed from The Amanda Show, she got a main role as Holly Tyler at What I Like About You series and quited the show. Since then her position on that show replaced by Drake Bell and Josh Peck. 

 

What I Like About You (2002 - 2006)

Recently I rewatched WHAT I LIKE ABOUT YOU, I watched all of the season. I love it so much. This series is about Holly Tyler (Amanda Bynes) who had to move to her sister’s apartment, Valerie (Jennie Garth) since their father was transferred to Japan for work. Valerie must deal with quiet immature, funny and loud sister by her own meanwhile they actually had so many opposite personalities. I love both Bynes and Garth in this series, they really had that sister chemistry. Completed by many great supporting character like Gary (which undoubtedly funny, he held a record for the most character who making me laugh), Holly’s best friend Tina, Vince, Lauren and so many more. Their family and love life twist brilliantly got me become soft and sentimental at the same time. Their comedy came really natural brought with a great spontaneous script. 

Anyway, I’m still looking for her great movies and series to watch. I found couple of them but I haven’t watched it yet. Soon after I watch it I will share it again on my next part of this post. SEE YOU !

Red, Batik and Bold

Batik become one of the largest fashion item in the entire world. As an INDONESIAN, I don't want to miss a chance to proudly wear my batik on a casual occasion. I love the pattern and the red color it makes the dress looks really bold yet casual. 

Even Batik is identical with something formal and serious but this dress proves the other way around. It is fun and fresh in any way. 

I got this Batik dress from SUPER ETHNIC and white shoes are from H&M. As mentioned before, that white bag I got it from my best friend as a birthday present. All of the items fit together with my red Batik dress. 

Actually I can also wear it with my yellow shoes but white is always better.

MUTE TRIES EVERYTHING - AT STARBUCKS [PART 1]

Good day everyone!

So I want to introduce you my newest challenge replacing my old ones, it is MUTE TRIES EVERYTHING. This challenge is basically the same with my TRY-IT-ALL challenge, but I just change the name to make it sounds more catchy. 

I also changed the restaurant that I used to pick into a new one. Why? Because I had a new title so I think it's necessary for me to change the restaurant also. And the food place that I choose is STARBUCKS COFFEE!! Well may be it's no longer called as Starbucks Coffee since they don't only sell coffee any more, they also serve many kinds of beverages and yummy meals. You can find Starbucks anywhere, on the corner of big avenue, at the malls, rest area and so many more. I have my closest Starbucks branch from my house is at Balekota Mall. 

As my very first part of this challenge, I want to try their very signature coffee so I tried :

STARBUCKS ESPRESSO WITH VANILLA IDR 44K

Honestly I am not a coffee addict, but I can enjoy drinking coffee. This espresso is perfect for me. I choose to add vanilla syrup because I can't drink black coffee too much or too bitter because my tummy won't stand it and my heart beat will be increasing, it's my natural body reaction. So far, I have to take a meal before drink coffee to avoid that reaction. Vanilla syrup wouldn't make it too bitter. 

Actually this espresso was nice, even though I asked them to add some vanilla syrup but the smell and the taste of coffee was still thick, it's like undisturbed by vanilla syrup. I love it so much but still I can't drink it too much. Starbucks just nailed it.

I know Starbucks may be is one of the best coffee shop and also one of your favourite. So let me help you by trying all of their menu and share it how it taste then you can have another recommended menu to pick.

See you on my next MUTE TRIES EVERYTHING - AT STARBUCKS!

ROTI BAKAR 88 - TANGERANG

Hi everyone! HAPPY NEW YEAR FOR ALL OF US! 

Early on new year holiday me and my mom went to one place to look for dinner. This place actually already well known as a good place for young people to gather and spend many hours while eating. Yes, that was Roti Bakar 88. This resto spreads among so many cities even there are three branches near my home. We visited their branch on Pasar Lama area.

This restaurant serves many types of instant noodle, toast bread and desserts. With a friendly price, this place gained it's fame instantly. 

This place separated into three areas. One is indoor with open air (smoking available), indoor with AC (non smoking room) and outdoor area. I picked our seat at outdoor area. The outdoor area located behind the resto opposite to Cisadane river so you can have a meal while enjoying the view. 

WHAT WE ORDER ?

We didn't want to order noodles, our dinner menu filled with bread. 

ROTI PANGGANG COKLAT IDR 12K & JERUK DINGIN IDR 7K

Honestly we ordered it three times because one was not enough hahaha. I love the chocolate, and the bread toasted well.

ROTI ICE CREAM IDR 15K

This was so nice. I don't why but I satisfied enough with the ice cream. It was so plentiful, the ice cream and chocolate sauce. I just didn't really like the bread, I prefer the taste of ROTI PANGGANG COKLAT bread. But what can went wrong about ice cream right? They have three ice cream flavor mixed, Strawberry, Chocolate and Vanilla. 

Well, I guess that's all my dinner experience at Roti Bakar 88. Have you ever visit this resto on your area? Let me know what's your favorite menu and may be I'll try it on my future visit. 

Thank you for reading everyone! SEE YA!

White Dress #OOTD

Forgive my very low quality of picture. It's just instant idea of me to take this picture. This photo was taken on last Saturday. I had a date that day with my boyfriend and that's what I wore. 

White is always be a beautiful touch of color. I combined it with turquoise flat shoes, to make it sweet even more. 

I got that beautiful white dress from Frazier Boutique, shoes from Noche, it all match together with the white bag that I really like. That bag was a birthday present from my best friend by the way.

That's my white dress #OOTD, I'll see you around at another #OOTD!

XO!
