Old Navy Indonesia

Hello lovelies,

last week was full of events, one of the most exciting event is the Grand Opening of Old Navy in Indonesia.

-*-

JAKARTA, 22 April 2016 – Global apparel brand Old Navy announced today that it is opening its first store in Indonesia at the Central Park Mall in Jakarta. This new store has a spacious 1,200 square meter layout that provides an incredible shopping experience for customers. Moreover, it becomes one of the first Old Navy stores to feature an updated store design, reflecting Old Navy’s commitment to always bringing something absolutely unique to its customers, with a focus on high-quality on-trend apparel, fashion and value.

Old Navy is focused on making current American fashion essentials accessible for every family. The brand launched in 1994 and quickly became one of the top apparel brands in the United States, making history in 1996 as the first retailer to reach $1 billion in annual sales in less than four years. Old Navy is part of the Gap Inc. portfolio of brands, which also includes Gap, Banana Republic, Athleta and Intermix.

Old Navy’s entry into Indonesia marks another milestone in the brand’s continued global growth strategy. The first Old Navy store will feature the same energizing store environment that the brand has become known for in the United States and will offer apparel and accessories collections for men, women, kids and babies.

This is the sixth franchise market expansion for Old Navy. In March 2014, the brand opened its first franchise-operated stores in the Philippines and has since opened stores in Qatar, Kuwait, Saudi Arabia, and the UAE. The brand’s move into Southeast Asia builds on the success that Gap and Banana Republic have experienced since entering the market in 2007.

Franchisee partner RSH Limited has a proven track record of successfully delivering seamless brand experiences to customers in Southeast Asia, the Middle East and South Pacific – establishing more than 700 stores and shops-in-shop in 11 countries.

Thank you so much Old Navy for being here in Indonesia and everyone who brought them here. I hope the prices is similar to the US :D

Old Navy is perfect as an everyday casual wear that speaks comfort, style and varieties.

I'll soon come back again to the store and try more of their outfits.

Thank you for the invite, it was a full house during the grand opening with a few glitch from the cashier team, hopefully they get a hang of it by now and I fully enjoyed the space and convenience walking around the store. It surely a colorful day for me.

Levi's 711 Skinny Jeans

Hello everyone,

thanks to Levi's Indonesia, a company that develop brilliant jeans, I get tons of compliments on social medias, how you say?

It started around weeks ago when Levi's has just launch their new collection for women called the Lot 700. You may read my previous post HERE about the whole collection.

Long story short, I got two pairs, and after trying so many different style and colors, I chose two 711s in light blue and blue color.

-*-

I have a lot of jeans at home and I need these two since I think they are both pretty classic and the shape is just surreal. It really snug my lower parts like second skin...and made them looks better by providing enough 'firmness' and support here and there. What I meant by here and there is the area between the thighs, buttocks, legs, tummy and everywhere in between >.< like for real. Still in a comfortable way, so think of it like a corset made for the lower tummy, rear ends, and legs, and they look good as an outer wear.

-*-

711 Skinny comes in a 5/6 -7/8 ish length, and since I'm not tall aka below average, I need to fold them a bit to become as it should be, or let them be to become a full length jeans. I love them either way and even thou they come in the same series and only differ in color, or so I thought, it was not. The one in light blue fits me the most in size 28 and the blue one in size 27. According to the staff, it is due to the material, so even thou' they look similar, they are slightly different. So when you're planning to get one, do try them each of the jeans yourself accordingly.

-*-

Above is me wearing the light blue one and it is so comfortable and versatile. I can go either casual or smart casual. Wear a heels and accessories for a cocktail party.

Since it is number 28, I feel them a bit loose on the legs. unlike the one in 27 (blue one) shown on the image below, the legs are fitted well.

-*-

And they are still pretty much comfortable.

I can move around freely.

-*-

The 711 is a skinny with mid rise, so women, especially those after c-sect, can still feel the comforts. The jeans stays around the navel. And they also have a high rise type (a trend in Korea right now), goes above the navel, covering the whole behind, so you may be assured nothing will appear when you sits. Actually, all of their lot are made to fit nicely when you're walking, standing, or even sitting down.

-*-

It's a jeans that are made for style and comfort. Made you looks great and feels good too!

-*-

Thank you so much Levi's Indonesia for the innovations, people say I look slimmer, taller, prettier, and fashionable too.

Levi's Lot 700 Series

Hello ladies,

great news!!! Levi's has just launch their new upcoming series for ladies, this time, it would be better, more comfortable and still with Levi's quality and assurance of the best denim.

-*-

The event was yesterday at Gandaria City Mall in Skeeno Hall. It was filled with excitement and thrills, definitely one of most happening event in fashion industry. Jeans is not just about making statement but this daily wear has earns it's place up there and everywhere.

-*-

From the high ends to street fashion, jeans never been apart, it's something that we can wear everyday and still look damn good, especially when it's Levi's.

-*-

Now, better than ever, Levi's presented 710 Super Skinny, 711 Skinny, 712 Slim, 714 Straight, 715 Bootcut, and 721 High Rise Skinny. All in better design, technology and material. From the most stretch up to 45% which is 710 to the one that 'looser' in 715 Bootcut. But all promises a better design where it wrapped, shaped, and even slimmed the user for a firmer thigh, hold butt, shaped the waistline and tummy area but still feel very comfortable thanks to its new innovation.

-*-

We all hate corset but love the effect it brings, Levi's 700 series for women help shape up our lower part without the need to suffer, so it's pure comfort and style too.

-*-

The collection will be available at the early September at all Levi's in Indonesia, start from the major outlets.

-*-

The jeans sold start from Rp.499.900.

Each variant comes in light blue, denim blue and black.

-*-

My favorite is 711 like shown by the model above, it's not skinny yet, but it's tight and looks super comfortable, snugging in those lovely jeans.

-*-

Soon the event began, there's Nirina on stage with the one of the jeans from the new collection and she does looks slimmer and give the illusion of taller as well. Perhaps it's because of the lifting effect.

-*-

Then the country manager steps in and share the beginning of Levi's, which is in 1873 where all jeans are made for men. Not until 80 years later the first jeans made for women. Now, evolving, the Lot 700 series.

-*-

Followed by Indri, also from Levi's Indonesia, she share what are the numbers means, 7 means the collection are from women, the next number is the top part and the last digit are for the width of the jeans. So 710 is the tightest (skinny/pencil type) and 715 is the widest. 721 means the jeans is higher on the waist line and the 1 means skinny.

-*-

In this opportunity, Levi's Indonesia also want to share a competition to make one of your dream come true, if you have a bucket list that you really want it to happen, do pay a close attention to #LadiesInLevisID and #LiveInLevisID on social media.

-*-

Levi's are available at Instagram, twitter, facebook page and event line.

-*-

Last but not least is the fashion show. I uploaded the video on my youtube account under Carnellin

Or you could watch it here:

-*-

They look cool aren't they and super comfy too wearing those jeans. So, what are you waiting for get yours soon, as Levi's promises that your jeans would not loose it's shape no matter how often you wear them.

Thank you Levi's Indonesia.

Clozette Indonesia Bloggers Gathering

Hi everybody,

a few weeks ago, I went into my first Clozette Gathering as their ambassador. This time the event is held at one of the restaurant in Lotte Shopping Avenue.

The theme for the event is finding that perfect clothing with your body type.

We do understand that we are unique individual, not just our face and facial structure is different, we are all different in sizes and shapes. And we can all take advantage of our condition by accepting ourselves and makes the best of what we have.

-*-




With May and June as their guest speakers and the audience enjoying their lunch at Seribu Rasa, the event went on smoothly. Those with hourglass figure can emphasize on their slim waist while those with strawberry shaped body that has wider lower body has benefits using an A shaped attire like shown above.

May and June also introduce to us their clothing line that are understand the needs of women to look good, in fact, look their best in any occasion.

-*-




Soon, the event ended and it's picture time with other Clozette Indonesia Ambassadors.

-*-

And with other members in Clozette Indonesia community as well. Don't forget to join us at the next event which will be held approximately on monthly basis.

-*-

Thank you so much Clozette Indonesia!!

Sport Watch by Bicycles.sg

Hello all,

This time I want to share with you a review for a product from Bicycles.Sg. A number one bicycles shop in Singapore. Apparently, they also have these custom made watches.

Please look at the product below and more details can be found here: CLICK ME.

-*-



I got the white one, which I think is the prettiest ^^

The watch itself is pretty simple and in terms of design actually quite plain and nothings to it. Suitable for those looking for a fuss free product.

The material itself is rubber and feels soft on the skin.

-*-


|

The product is chubby and thick, I think this is a unisex watch. And the length of the strap and the holes made it suitable for smaller or bigger wrist.

The thing that comes with most of rubber material is they are not really goes well with sweats as in they become rather sticky and add heat on to the skin, and eventually feels kinda yucky.

So I don't think the sport watch suits me during sports heehee,  more like into the sport theme fashion.

-*-

Overall,

A sport 'theme' watch with an all white feature, simple, no fuss no frill product. Just tell time without any date or any other function.

The soft rubber material is comfortable and soft against the skin but like all rubbery material, it can become hot when the weather is up to it.

A unisex watch that can fit almost all wrist, the adaptable band with tons of holes made it all possible.

Will I keep using it this chubby watch? Yes. when the 'theme' suits the occasion.

Shiseido Make Up Show Spring Summer 2013

Hello lovelies,

Shiseido invited me for a Spring Summer 2013 Make Up Show with a twist of Fashion Show from Blaire.

-*-

The event held in the Penthouse of Grand Hyatt Hotel, Jakarta.

-*-

Clearly this is not the first time Shiseido collaborated with the fashion industry, but I wish they make something different.

-*-

The event started with a makeup demo. The distance made us (me and other guests) difficult to see the process.

-*-

Maybe someday Shiseido will give us a private session ^__^

-*-

The model with base on are given colors by the makeup artist.

-*-

Then, the highlight of the event, Ms. Blaire and her collection. Please refer to the image below and don't be shy to click it for larger view.

-*-

And I got one close up makeup look which I think unique and unlike Shiseido I've witnessed before. A gradation from purple, pink, peach and a stripe of blue line.

-*-

Thank you Shiseido for having me and see you next time!
