Altelia Amani


I stumbled upon this boutique last week, after my trip to Jakel. It's situated in between Jakel and Jakel Carpet, so you can't miss it. 

I went in because of its all-white baroque decor. That grandeur intrigued me enough to go in. Browsed through the ready made kurungs and they are indeed beautiful. The workmanship looks admirable and the designs are up-to-date. I was attracted by the beadworks also, I noticed they use good quality beads, pearls and crystals and the workmanship looks great as well. 

I did some research and saw their bridal wear and traditional wear online. Some, easily got into my favourite lists while there are a few that isn't my style. 

I asked for their tailoring rate. The price starts from rm600 for tailoring only for kurungs without lining. *gulp* If you want lining, add another rm50. If you want those beautiful beadings, expect to pay rm1000. *gulp*gulp* 

After spending so much money at Jakel, I didn't have the heart to spend that much money on tailoring. Maybe another time!

Glitch

If you see that my blog is looking a bit wonky, that's because stupid me did it! I deleted some of my photos on my Google drive which are on this blog and now it's all gone. Am working on fixing this glitch. Just bear with me, please.  Thank you and see you with hopefully a new look! 

Crates Crazy!

Ohmygod!! This is exactly what I was thinking of doing for our home office!!!!! Ahhh, and to think that I got the inspiration without looking at any pictures/blogs/etc. I feel like I very creative like that. Anyhoos, mine hasn't materialized yet because I haven't found the crates in KL. I called up one of the wine shops (simply because they are the ones that use crates and would prolly have them) in Desa Sri Hartamas, but they said they don't keep theirs. ??!! I have to say, tho, that I haven't been trying hard enough. I could just drop by and ask from all these wine shops, Cold Storage etc. Okay, I am now driven to do so. After looking at the beautiful end product! Wish me luck in my search. If you know where I can get them, do tell! Thank you. Photo taken from Pinterest

Yogyakarta, Indonesia

We are going to Yogyakarta for a short getaway, yay!  Husband and I have been talking about going away during our Month of Love since we got married, 3 years ago. We finally get to do so this year since there no cousins/relatives getting married this time around.  Since I don't have a lot of annual leave (-___-) we decided to go someplace near. Husband loves the hustle and bustle of citylife and I've been wanting to see Borobudur, so Yogyakarta is the perfect destination for us!  Aside from Borobodur, we haven't done our research yet as to what we want to see and do there. So any inputs from you would be awesome!  I'm also looking forward to staying in the hotel. One thing about me is that I LOVE myself some fancy hotels!  And the place we are staying at is just that. In pictures that is. I hope it's not one of those 'indah khabar dari rupa' type.  Here, check it out.  Lobby Poolside Deluxe Room  Pretty, ...
