Fall has come in Germany and it is almost as cold as winter. But the sceneries are changing to a somewhat moody vibe. Dark colors has begun to dominate the street style scene here in Marburg. And i decided to try a new thing... i bought a dark colored lip cream to suit the moody vibe this fall. Something new and fresh to add to my arsenal.

My tip for wearing turtle neck top is to pick a vibrant color and make it pop. I paired my wine red turtleneck with all black outfit so it doesn't look boring. I also have another turtle neck top and i will show you more styling tips and fall outfit ideas soon :D

I just got back from visiting my extended family in Semarang and Jogjakarta over the weekend and had some time to meet up with Nia from Deniathly.com in this lovely place called Honje Resto Jogjakarta. Heard this place from fellow bloggers in Jakarta and decided to check it out!

Iced Caffee Latte 
It's actually good. It's not too sweet and you can still taste the strong coffee (a sign that this is not an instant product).

honje lime
Honje Lime
This is a mixture of kecombrang syrup and lemonade with limes. The taste is quite interesting. It's sweet and refreshing at the same time.

Vegetable Duck Spring Rolls
This beautifully plated spring roll is filled with duck fillet and a mixture of vegetable. It's savoury and really nice to have if you're looking for a light bite.

(with that snapback - bomber jacket - sneaker combo)

So as you guys probably know (you should know, i posted it on instagram :p ) i'm currently home in Jakarta. Met up on Thursday with the loveliest Bella and had the greatest time ever. Had lunch in Shaburi and had a photo / high tea session in The Harvest. Special thanks to Bella to take these super awesome pictures!

I'm gonna show you how to style the bomber jacket with a kind of swag / hip hop twist in this look!

Mitchell & Ness Blue Snapback
H&M Bomber Jacket
Pins & Needles V Neck Black Top
Cheap Monday Black High Spray Jeans
Nike Air Max Thea White / Black
Michael Kors White Backpack
Black Choker
BCBGeneration Necklace


The idea is to make the unique bomber jacket & snapback colour to pop by pairing it with all black outfits. Adding Choker also popped a little girly vibe in the outfit.

I've been obsessed with MOBB lately! It's iKON 's Bobby and Winner's Mino collaboration!
The winner of Show Me The Money 3 & runner up of SMTM 4 finally collaborated and released this mini album filled with so much swag & cool vibes. My favorite in the album is called Hit Me ft. Kush (hence the title). I'm trying to spread my love of korean hip hop to people check out their album in the playlist below!

I don't know if somebody is still following this blog after 7 months of absence. Oh well.
So hello to the ones who is still reading this blog! What's up what's good? I've been too busy with uni and my own daily life and couldn't find time to really take photos and write something in this blog. I'm more active on my instagram (@veenation). But i just had my last exam on Wednesday and finally have time to sit down and actually write something. So enjoy!

Now to tell you the real story. I think i need to preach about how to love oneself. I've experienced really a lot of insecurities since living here. Sometimes i'm afraid to dress up because i literally live in Marburg, where no one even dresses up, unless it's for a special themed party or graduation. I literally get a lot of stares, and when i say a lot, it's A LOT. I took this set of photos (special thank you to Hushik) in Uni Bibliothek / Uni Library because i have to study for the exams and oh boy, it's real. But i realize that if you always try to make other people happy, you won't be happy yourself. 
So you do you, do what you want to do, be who you want to be, and live your life to the fullest you beautiful people. And see you in Jakarta! I'll be back soon!

I'm fine, in July

Hello again after four months without a new post :) I'm so happy to finally get the time to write and post something in Pudding Monster. Studienkolleg ate my life in the second semester. I absolutely did nothing except studying to the point that i know most of the people that go in the Uni Zentralbibliothek on a regular basis. Now i already have written my Festellungsprüfung and finally am enjoying the time off! This post is kind of late because i was travelling all around Hessen with Meryl and visited almost all Weihnachtsmarkt in Hessen. HA. We practically drank Glühwein everyday, oh the good life. We took these pictures in Wiesbaden, in front of Kochbrunnen. Such a lovely city to be in.

Now i'm already back in Marburg and enjoying some down time at home. Be prepared for some food / recipe posts in the future!

Hello lovelies! I'm already back in Marburg, Germany and quite prepared to blog more regularly because i stocked up quite a lot of photos in Jakarta. The weather now is beginning to be somewhat colder so i'm saying good bye to shorts or short skirts (Can't wear them now without stockings / tights). I went around some places like Gastromaquia and Clea Tea Bar with Ko Patrick and took some pictures because the places were so pretty! In this post, i'm sharing some of my favorite shots from the cafe hopping we did.

I have to say that March flew by so fast! I spent a lot of time lurking around the house and literally... STUDYING. The exams are coming and i did Goethe Zertfikat B1 which i passed (Gott sei dank!) . So cheers to pieces of my life captured in instagram pictures which you're about to see now ;) enjoy!
What I've Been Posting Lately :
1. Quotes
Nothing better than an inspiration to start the day right?
2. Selfie (?)
Have to admit that taking pics of your OOTD via mirror is quite addictive. We also took a picture of the senior cheer squad for our yearbook. Hope it turned out well!
3. Food, Drinks, Noms
Taking a picture of my food or drink before actually eating them has become a habit. I feel happy by making other people hungry, food porn alert :p
4. Favorite Things
H&M has opened a branch in Grand Indonesia and got a pair of printed pants, success! The second pic is my camera, and then the last pic is my current favorite beauty product : The Odbo 's Aqua Soothing Silky Essence. It's a miracle product which smooths your face instantly. PS: It's not meant to be sold outside South Korea but i'm selling it for you! contact me via line : puddingmonster ;) Or should i have a giveaway for it? tell me in the comments!
5. Ellen Ang x LINF Giveaway
My dear friend Ellen is hosting a giveaway for one LINF choker! Click click HERE !

Wait! There's more! 
I'm very happy to announce that i'm now one of STYLIFT 's Trendsetter! Check out my favorite items in my Stylift profile & join the wonderful site :D 

Have a great weekend everybody! Don't forget to follow me on Instagram !

Hello hello! It's been 1 week since the annual Java Jazz Festival and i still feel jazzy hangover from the event. This is my 4th Java Jazz and the progress from year to year is quite impressive. A lot of the facilities and crowd controls have gotten better. As this is their 10th year anniversary, the biggest jazz festival in SE Asia is definitely celebrating it the right way with more popular artists and entertainment.Enjoy my photo diary and review on the second day of JJF 2014, Saturday! :D

I was so lucky to win an invitation to Brightspot Market's private opening night on Thursday! Even though it's exam week in my school, i still went to the event cause it's a superbly good opportunity. The opening night was on 7th November, before Brightspot is officially open to public from 8th to 10th November in Lotte Shopping Avenue. There are almost 120 booths, from clothing to delicious food so it's sure worth to visit! :)

First of all, i'm so sorry for the blog hiatus last October. I was so busy with school stuffs as i was one of the committees for FORTELATIONS 2013. It was fun tho to be involved in the biggest event of my school despite all the exhausting days. You got to know a lot of people and worked with them for about 7 days. Enough for all the blab, let's start a new month with a new post! So here's a sneak peek of my life from Instagram last October ;)
First Row: FALL OUT BOY JAKARTA! 
Yes people, i finally saw Fall Out Boy live for the very first time on 19th October. The venue was Skenoo Hall Gandaria City, which is quite far from where i live actually but the journey was super worth it. Tasha, Lidia, and Tara were my partners in crime throughout the concert. We sang and jumped throughout every song, especially Young Volcanoes, My Songs Know What You Did in The Dark, and Thanks For The Memories. I am actually not a hardcore FOB fan but i sure enjoyed the night. Turns out third row from the barrier isn't so bad  :p (Pete Wentz was literally in front of my face!)

Second Row : Food? NOM NOM NOM
If you ever checked out my instagram, most of the pictures are food. The habit of taking food pictures before actually eating it has become a habit for me. I don't know whether it's good or bad tho because nobody can touch the food before i get a great photo of them :p. The left one is almond brownies my mom got from Bandung, in the center Nanny's Pavillon Farfalle Pasta, and the last one is Churreria's Churros with dark chocolate and caramel dipping. All are NOMS!

Third Row : Personal Pictures
Besides food, i do take a lot of personal pictures. Either it's my outfit or accessories or pictures of me and my friends. The most left pic is taken from my latest outfit post, Always Tell The Truth. The transparant top is from Uniqlo and has become one of my favorite tops! The second pic is with Ello, the singer/guitarist. Met him backstage in Fortelations' closing ceremony and managed to talk a bit and took a picture with him. He's just so charming and handsome in person. Last pic is my kicks from Reebok, it was a gift from my aunt and can't stop wearing it whenever i wear neutral/casual outfit. Avibrant kick to my outfit don't you think?

That's my personal recap of November, Hope you all will follow my instagram @veenation and have a great month ahead! :)

I met my bestfriend / blogger fella Tamara Emilia from Vanilla Sky again last June in Union, Plaza Senayan. It was absolutely a happy moment because i haven't seen her since my birthday party in April (such long time right?). So here we were, after months of just hilarious line chats and phone calls, having girls chit chat moment in such lovely place.

First of all, i'm so sorry for the long absence in blogging! It's the second semester of school and it really is super duper hectic. I can barely touch the computer except in weekends because of my activities. Beside school, i also practiced for a performance in Gramedia Fair last February. Back to the main topic, i went to Brightspot Market two straight days! On Saturday with Ellen, Cathy, Tamara (and her sister)-on Sunday with my family.

I can't believe it's already February! January flew so fast with so much school works and such. Keeping me extremely busy everyday. I hardly have time to just read a book and not worry about any work.My school's cheer team is finally improving, i got a gig in valentine's day week, and my life already seem happier. What's on February? Indonesia Fashion Week, Brightspot Market, and Chinese new year! :D woohoo

I feel that last Saturday is one of the best days I've ever had these days. Nothing much more fun than a bunch of blogger friends, uniting in one organization and having a great time! We had this meet up event in Carlo De Huts, Senayan City. I personally haven't been there since last Saturday but the place is just perfect. Great food, affordable prices, and of course comfy ambiance.

It's funny to know how three different strangers can meet and be great friends in just one day. I experienced this a few weeks ago in Jakarta Fashion Week 2013. Me and several fabulous bloggers are members of Jakarta Blogger, a new blogger community based in Jakarta. Two of them are Fahmy Haryandi and Lucca Yoga  . I finally met these two lads and watched a fashion show together! Actually, the main plan is just to have a short lunch before Fahmy and Luke watch a fashion show. But we all end up watching Paula Meliana for Eva Bun.

Yeah yeah i know it's not a sport-ish season already but i can't stand the urge to wear this German soccer team jersey. I'm not a really big soccer fan and not devoted to one team but when it's time for international soccer matches like Euro or World Cup... Expect me up at 2 AM with lots of coffee in front of the TV, cheering for German or Spain.
