No. 15: Turtle Neck?


Hey guys!
So today I wanna write about Turtlenecks. I'm guessing you're not a big fan of turtle neck because its just weird and it looks like its suffocating you, and I used to agree with that. But when I tried to mix it up with some cute skirts/pants or by adding accessories, I changed my mind about turtle neck, its actually how you use it. So with this post, I hope it could change your mind about these types of clothes, whether if its a classic turtleneck, mock turtleneck, cowl turtleneck, textured turtleneck, or even layering turtleneck!

For this type of clothes, I have combined it with a half-printed skirt, sneakers, and a choker to make it more grunge yet kinda girly at the same time.


for the top, I actually stole it from my mom so I don't know where its from
for the skirt, i bought this at Japan last summer
Converse sneakers with lots of random words
matching earrings and choker
So that is it for todays tip, I hope I could change your mind about turtlenecks and just give it a try by changing up the style! And if you did, take a picture and tag me in ig: @kukuclaudiaa or my twitter: @kukuclaudia BYE!

No. 14: Curling your hair without HEAT

So as you can see from the title, i'm doing a DIY post and todays theme is Curling your hair without heat for Overnight!

As for some of you, i bet you wanna curl your hair for some party but it will take a loong time so in the end you're lazy to do it. But with this tip, you can curl your hair whenever you want! 

So this is what it looks like
All you need:
1. Brush/Comb
2. Bobby pins
3. Hairspray

HOW
1. You first brush your hair until its nice (if you know what i mean)
2. Take a part of your hair
3. Twist the part of your hair that you have chosen
4. Then make it as a circular motion and pin it with bobby pins
5. Do the same step to all of your hair
6. After all that is done, leave it for overnight
7. In the morning, you let the bobby pins out and make sure you got them all
8. Then get all the twisted hair out carefully and let them all spread away
9. Last but not least, to make it last longer spray it with hairspray

so this is what it looks like
dont mind my duck face
When I got the result I was happy with it and it was great so yeah :) 

PS: I got this idea from Bethany Mota's latest video and i thought it was a great idea to show this to you

And my song of the week is Paper Hearts by Tori Kelly plus, there's Ian Eastwood. One of my inspirational dancers. Enjoy :)

Wet mascara
Hiding every cloud under a smile
When there's cameras
And I just can't reach out to tell you
That I always wonder what you're up to"

No. 13: Back to School Outfit

Hey guys! Today I wanna post about Outfits. My school have this thing where every Monday-Thursday we wear our school uniforms and on Friday we can wear whatever we want that is appropriate for school (which means that we cant wear shorts, tanks & skirt above our knee). So it is quite challenging going to school with those rules because most of my outfit suits better with the ones are not allowed, but if you want to wear tanks then you can always cover it up with cardigans, like what I did for my next outfit. Since tomorrow's Friday, I planned on wearing black legging from ripcurl, cute skull tank, camel cardigan from cache cache and this cute combat boots that I bought in Japan last summer.
While matching it up with my messy buns just by using bobby pins. I never thought I could do/make messy bun for my hair since my hair is very long and thick, but I did and I'm planning to use that style tomorrow and as long as I could. I think that this look could go on the casual, hippie, comfortable tag. Also this outfit could be used for "get together with your friends" occasion, "getting myself starbucks" occasion, or like myself, "outfit for school" occasion. So this outfit could rock in any type of occasion really. 

I hope this was enough for todays blog and goodnight. BYE!

No. 12: 15歳

So today is the 19th of February 2014, which means it has been 2 months since I turned 15.
Let me tell you something about turning 15 years old, everything's the same. Nothing has changed since 2 months ago, physically nor emotionally. I don't know why but I use to feel like turning 15 would make me step into the ''Pre-Adulthood'' or ''Teenager'' base, yet everything is just the same. Maybe my life is normal, which caused me feel the same way.

To make the age transition that I had hoped for, today I made a goal for myself before turning 16 this December, which are:
1. Me being more mature at handling tricky situation
2. Try to put the most important priority first
3. Speak what's on my mind
4. Make the most memorable/unforgettable day with everyone that I love
5. Be proud of myself at what I have accomplished

Those are the points that I keep on missing every year, yes I have made this goal since I was at the age of 13 but still I failed. So this year, I'm gonna do my best at these goals.




I know this is short but that is all I could write today and I hope you like this. BYE!

No. 11: Highlight of the Week

Checking the rides
Heya!
As you can see from the title, it proves it all that today Is the highlight of the week. Why? Because 19 of us went to Jungleland, Sentul (Theme Park). We went there to celebrate Nadya's 15th birthday and it went well. After we arrived there, we went to Starbucks to wait for our tickets. And at Starbucks, I found this cool lamp shield (?).


Us girls will always need a picture to take the memorable day
the girls
After we went inside we went to the ferris wheel and guess what, 3 of my friends were scared and it was funny how they react to it.

After that we found this scary haunted ride that only the 4 of us are brave enough to go in. But we got scared in the end anyway.

And while we were walking I've found this flower (which is fake) but its pretty so yeah, who cares.
its fake, lol

Then this must be one of the most memorable for the day, this happened in front of the haunted place when we met these zombies. Let me tell you that they were pretty scary, even my friend got freaked out just by looking at their eyes because some of these zombies wore contact lenses to make it look real.





Beside that we also saw this parade where people danced, and I couldn't miss a chance to take a picture with one of them so I did!
Sasha,  the Dancer, and I
While waiting for the others we also took alot of silly and random pictures, and this one is the best. They pretended to be Aladdin and Jasmine because of the flying carpet.
Nadya and Michael with their silly poses
We also played some basketball before rains starts to pour out.

And guess what I've found, POPCORN MACHINE!! This one is so cute I feel like I just want to take it and bring it home.
cute popcorn machine!
Oh, I got a balloon from this guy.

Sasha was brave enough to hold a reptile

Just another picture of us here

After that we went home, we are all in a great mood today because of all the fun that we had. These kinds of day rarely happens so this is totally Memorable. And since this is the last year for the us to hang out before we become highschool-ers, we made it the best. I want to say Thankyou for everyone for making this day happen, and Goodnight. BYE!
