Finally





In the beginning I am blogging,  I was thinking to blog all about my passion for cooking. But … blogging is not something that you do like copy and paste.  For me, blogging is kinda ‘me’ time alone, hehehhe. If I don’t have the mood swing to blog, hell ya .. my brain and my hand are not functioning properly, not synchronized at all. 
It’s not just mood, music can changed my mood also. If I listened to the music and I'm hooked up, trust me, I just keep moving.

Actually before interested in cooking, I was crazee about fashion. I think I got this from my mom. When I was little, my mom was always dressing me up like I was her doll.  If I see all the pictures when I was a kid, I was so a little live doll, hehehe. 

My mom’s very passionate with fashion.  She is very pretty, beautiful probably is the right word for it and very concerned about her style.  Orang Indonesia bilang: JAIM artinya: Jaga Image (maintain the image).  Whenever she is out there, she makes a sure she is pretty (using make up and so on). My mom is always upset with me just because I dress whatever I want. She always wanted to dress me up like a model.    Me is the other way around, I don’t care if I am a model.  Being a model is just for fun when I had time to do it.   I am so basic with just Go gal. I don’t even comb my hair to tell you the truth, until now but  since I am getting old now and I live in my country, I do taking care of my hair to make sure they do not tangle each other,  hairspa once every two week, hahahaha.  What a spoiled brad, eih?

I remember when my mom was upset with me and she said she never get it why there is a guy so craze in love with me.  I don’t even look pretty like her at all,  my nose is not that tall like her, my eyes so squinty,  my lips so thick, my eye brows is a just, not too mention I had a very long face! But my best friend told me just because all the imperfections in my face, I look charming. My boyfriends even told me they love me as I am so natural! Aha … am I excited?  Alright … Nope. I am just an ordinary gal, and I don’t care whether she or he likes me or not as I don’t easily trust whoever say this and that.

Anyway, when I was 5 yrs old, my mom even has some seamstress at home who works for her to make some clothing.  Since I was a little so I have no idea what is going on and I’ve never ask questions to her! When I was grow up, for sure I know that my mom is a good chef! She has a good taste on food, like she had in clothing.  If she said it’s not good means she mean it what she said it’s NOT good food! Heheheh. 

It’s said “Like mother like daughter”, exactly. I  got what my mom had. I got a really good taste on food. Not just food, I even crazier on clothing on the beginning after I am doing modelling and walking at the cat walk when I was young. My talent on cooking just came up after I live abroad 18 yrs ago. As I am so hungry and I need my comfort food (my mom food kinda style). From there I am nailing my mom recipe from the scratch.  Now, you name it, I can cook all over the world food, from Asian style to western style.  It’s just bam bam bam, you’ll fall in love with me, hahahahaha

Alright .. now I am talking about my  ‘finally’ title.  This is ‘the thing’ that I wanna do when I am going back to my country. It’s all started when I am trying to find a clothing in here, I have difficulties to find the size! Yup the size, exactly.  If I live in North America or United States, I had a normal size. The gals down there has my average size.  Either Medium size or Small if I am lose weight.  Never go Large except I am pregnant! Not in this country, people are making clothes with size “All size” for me.  That is making me so sad since I am not in all size, hikssss …

I felt so bad too for people who is bigger than me, sometimes they don’t have the size! Well .. you can imagine if my medium size fit for all size. How about the XL gals? Is it gonna be triple size?  I remember my mom, she never find any clothes @ department store since there is no such of her size! So after that she decided it to buy material and bring it to the seamstress to make a dress etc.  That was my mom story and now it’s become my story!!

Yes, I am getting a material, I had my own design, and bring it to the seamstress to do my clothing.  Yes, finally! I had time to do this on my own. I am creating a clothing line that make a sense, that everyone with size Small, Medium, Large and XL can wear their clothing according to their size.  I learned from my seamstress that the different from size Small to Medium as well as Medium to Large is only 2 cm, believe it or not! 

I am so happy with the result and collaboration my idea with my seamstress.  I am very lucky that my seamstress is very smart. She know what I want, she know how to cut, know how to sewing and know me better than anybody else! That is the most important in this collaborations.  I can’t imagine if I had so many ideas and she doesn’t understand what I am talking about. That would be disaster to my clothing line.

Anyway, I felt like I was reborn at age 41 yrs old and  had a new baby.
My clothing line  is not a mass product, it’s more custom made.  I made special for people who is very special also, means my special customer.  This clothing is made from  special material originally from Indonesia, batik.  The style that you’ll see also is different than the one in store in my country, as I am trying to design all my stuff  are according to my style and comfort zone. I luv wearing stuff that is simple, comfortable but still chick. Yes, definitely simple, definitely beautiful and smart chick.

You know what .. I think I rather show you my collections instead of talking about it too much and you’ll figure it out what I am talking about. It’s free to judge my design, hahahah. You will pay if you buy it for sure.

Thanks!
