Hello Orange! 0
Over the top Orange and all it’s varieties has been declared THE color of spring 2011! I particularly love this dress below, one shoulder with gold accent on the waist. Tres chic!

Stuck in the city blocks of Jakarta with all it’s traffic & pollution can be so…depressing sometimes. I live in a small apartment, work in a small office space in a commercial building, and hangout in malls. I do feel like have to ‘get out’ every now and then to escape the walls, the outlets, the same old thing.
But Where? Of course i can simply go to some spa destination, or to other city or even overseas, but it will cost too much and not doable in weekly basis. So this is where i went last weekend

Kebun Raya Bogor! Yap it’s located in Bogor (around 1 - 1,5 hour drive from Jakarta) and i love every minute of my time there! the weather was perfect, it’s so peacefull, serene & pretty well maintained. I’m surprised there aren’t many people around enjoying the glorious garden!

Located in 85-hectare area with more than 15.ooo collection of trees & plants, it can be a very long walk as you can imagine. Every plant & tree we walked by has a name tag, but without further explanation.
Too bad i didn’t get to finished the track because it’s started to rain a little (don’t forget umbrella next time, it rains a lot around here). Walking around the garden with a red umbrella while it’s rain is a pretty romantic thought^^

After tired walking around, we went to cafe deDaun (inside the complex), to have some drinks & snack while enjoying the sunset from the cafe’s porch. Overall, it’s a perfect way to spend sunday afternoon away from home.

can we have one of these garden in jakarta please?
I have never find online store in Indonesia that sell home & living stuff,so i’m pretty excited when i found MANGKY.COM This online store only have 2 categories of products currently : lamps (table lamps & standing lamps) & decorative pillows

I remember lusting over some decorative pillows at index furnishing the other day, but my-oh-my, at over Rp 100,000,- per pillow is too much for me. At Mangky’s you can find pretty decorative pillows at only Rp 30,000,- each.
And ohhh, i love this standing decorative lamps in flowery green!, it’s perfect to add a little dash of color & pattern in my-all-too-plain-livingroom.

These fancy lamps are also perfect forb’day gifts for your friends!
Just moved from http://b4nch4.vox.com

New blog finally! And with my own domain name too!, Yellowteacup.com
Why the name? Yellowteacup.com is certainly not my first choice of domain name, but honestly, it’s so hard to find any decent available domain name these days. Anything good is already taken. Just like boyfriends. And husbands. And houses (huh!)
But in general, i’m pretty happy with it. I mean, yellow is one of my favorite color, and i drink tea everyday…from random cup. Ok, I’m going to buy a yellow tea cup, pronto.
Big thanks to Ollie who help me install my new template.
