I'm in Gogirl! Magazine November 2012 issue. Wow. Happy!! For my Indonesian readers now you can read the review of my shopping trip to Hong Kong with kak Githa Moran (Gogirl! Fashion Editor) there. For you who have no idea about this,well,I was announced as the winner of Gogirlmagz.com (the web version of Gogirl! Magazine) Fashion Tag of The Year on last June. Aaaand the prize is this shopping trip to HK with Gogirl! Magazine's Fashion Editor! Oh,how I love it so much. I feel so thankful for that too! And what you need to do is GRAB one for yourself! NOW!! ♥
Oh,hi there! Today I'm gonna share some pictures from my last trip to Hong Kong. Time flies so fast. Too fast,in fact. I went to HK on August and now it's already October! -_______-
Ok so we went shopping (as usual) in the morning until we get all we want! Oh well,in my case,it's actually until I spent all of HK dollars I have. Hahaha. We went to Langham Place first. After that,we went back to Prince Edward Market which is the first shopping place we visited on our first day in HK. And I must say it's already become my very very favorite place to shop and I do recommend it!
Since we were so curious about the vintage market that my friend told me to go to,we decided to look for it at Google Maps. So glad finally we found it at Prince Edward Market area. The place called Mee&Gee. There're soooo many vintage sweaters and cardigans and it drives me crazy! I love them all,I really want to take them all! But my wallet said I only can take two pieces so yeah,with the help of kak Githa I finally can make a decision.
It feels uncomplete if we don't go to Madame Tussauds when we're in HK,so here we are! I was so excited to meet those "real" artists even in their wax sculpture form. And that's why I dressed up in pink!
I looove kak Githa's sweater so much! It's from H&M by the way :)
This is it! Madame Tussauds! Keep scrooling ;)
Aaand,meet my boyfie,the (fake) Rob Patz! Muahahaaa.
I didn't take many pictures of me with these stars. Silly me,I only brought a camera with fix lens on it. The problem is,we cannot do the "zoom in,zoom out" thing with that lens and it's gonna be so difficult to take pictures in such small and crowded place like this. So sorry for another stupidity I've done. *sigh*
The rooftop view of Madame Tussauds. So beautiful,right?
That's the end of my HK trip post series. Gah! I can't believe it's already ended. It's surely the most fun and memorable experience I have so far. It's fun because I can shop A LOT. It's memorable because I finally made myself travel overseas for the first time,with kak Githa Moran the Fashion Editor of Gogirl! Magazine. I've been admiring her works since the first time I read Gogirl! Magazine and having a chance to know her in person is so unbelieveable. I mean,it's amazing! I feel so blessed and I can't wait to have another memorable experiences with the inspiring people in the future. Now tell me,what's your memorable experience so far? :D
Went to Tjong A Fie Mansion again but this time I went with these girls : Cellia (my sister) and Suzanne. I love this place and will never ever get bored with it. The culture mixture is clearly seen here. You can see the Malayan inspired windows assembled with a touch of Chinese culture as seen in the colour choices of the curtain and some furnitures. Well,I didn't take much pictures of the furnitures but maybe this post can help you to visualize the place :)

Loving Suzanne's sweater guard so much and lucky her,she got it from her mom. It's pretty,right?
Anyway,last Sunday was the last day I met Suzanne because she already left Indonesia on Tuesday to study abroad in London. Yes baby,LONDON!! She took Fashion Design at Instituto Marangoni London. So cool I know I knoowww!! I'm so proud of her yet also envious at the same time. Hahaha. Good luck,Suzanne! I know your love and passion for fashion will bring you to success in the industry. I know you can. Ouuhh,so damn proud of you!! ♥ ♥
So this is the end of my Tjong A Fie post. I recommend this place especially for you,tourists,because it's such a really cool place to visit when you are in Medan. I mean,there's so much vintage vibes you can get in this place. From the garden to the ballroom. You won't be disappointed!
