banjir boleh, wabah penyakit boleh, sampah dimana mana? tahan...
yang penting shoppingnya tetap di mall dong!

Adi was facing a style dilemma when he found himself back in Jakarta.
Lil sphinxku, how much does a pair of nice casual dressing shoes cost??
Casual dressing? As in fancy sneakers?
No. As in the one you can wear to work and when you're in semi official function.
He mentioned about one of dad's "cool" pair of boots.
I know how much they are, you should just ask dad to pass them to you! hehehe~

Adi is easy.
Modest and carefree.
An avid rock climber and a graphic designer.
Hence my vision of him is simple/practical, and rugged with a hint of "forwardness."
From the top, one of SA's shirt worn on top of and old tee, a vintage-y denim, and a pair of desert trek.
Gee! Jakartans will think I'm a gembel (homeless).
I totally forgot he is in Jakarta. Pardon me!
Then do you want to go all the way on British tailoring where a fly would slip off your shirt?
How much?? How much??... Money is no object. hahaha~
He is in JKT alright~

He asked about the temperature of NY fashion.
Well.. we all lived in denim and sneakers here.

We got into talking about how inappropriate we looked when we came home.
While everybody in our age in their suits and tie, Adi was in his old tee and shorts, I was in tee and mini, anytime, anywhere. Hey, it was 100ﾟF out! Who were you kidding in suit and tie?

So far I woke up in the morning, took a shower, put on whatever I felt like or whatever practical for the duty that day, and off to work with a big smile.
In the cold days or on the days when I only sat in a little cube and stared at the monitor, I liked to piled on at least 5 pieces of clothing.
If I had to go back, worked and lived in JKT, would they put me in a pair of gray suit? quelle horreur!
I couldn't imagine myself going to work everyday in such a restriction.

hmmmpphh! when did I become so vain?

psssst psssst... capung kemana?
