My Influental Figure Part I : Liebemarlene


Hello! again I'll share another hobbies at different time. I writing what I liked I looked I feel I sight beside in an atmosphere of boredome at home alone. I think anyone who have blog or regularly following the updates on fashion-bloggers community must have already knew the girl on above's picture. Yes, she's Rhiannon Leifheit, the owner of the famousblog and vintage online shop Liebemarlene Vintage on Ebay. I should say that she's amazing, with her old-lady-like yet modern style and posts about silent movie stars or many vintage items reviews. Vintage is becoming her true passion, I guess. Everything about her is so fascinating, her fabulous style seems like just flow naturally. I found her blog when I browsed through Flickr, looking for some summer dresses inspiration, and suddenly arrived on her beautiful photostream. Then I was directed to her blog. Since that time, I regularly read her post and get assured that I can have my own blog at part time. I've been wanted a blog, but never sure when to start - I always doubt my consistency and abilities, you know. But then I found out that everyone in the blogging community is so kind and supportive... Instead of judging your style only based on their own taste, they usually appreciate your creativity first and try to find the possitive side to be complimented. That's what I finally start blogging, and thanks to Rhiannon for being my first influential figure. :)




She has much more beautiful photos and posts, so you can just head to her Flickr account or her blog. There are many influental persons out there who unintentionally has made valuable effects or changes in my life by their existence or works, so I'll keep posting about them under My Influental Figure title probably once a week. Thanks for reading, I hope this could mean something for you!

Olivia Bee

Aha. See again still in fasting month when the such a bored arise at sudden – so, do you still get spirit of fasting till end supposed time? okay, this is one way I drive fatique among long-time holiday redundantly I thought. Anyway I accidentally found this lovely girl Olivia Bee and her awesome photostreams. I was surprised to know that she's much, younger than me - she's 15 (on capture), by the way - but her photos are incredible! Even more amazing than most photograpers I know in that age or older... Her pictures are whimsical, magical, lots of flares (it dropped me down and speechless with a very, very comfortable feeling remains in my heart) ... they're simply beautiful.





I should say that she's so talented and also really special... I mean, she's different - in a positive way. She's not like other 15' girls I knew, she's beyond ordinary. You can see that by reading her little notes that sometimes written under each photo... You'll see that she's a unique little dear. I feel light and fresh after seeing her works... And from now on I think she's on the top of my 'emergency' enlightenment mechanism list. Go check on my background twitter I've made up. It's a georgeous creature capture#

Basically vintage doesn't equal to "old" because it's younger than "antique" and "retro 90's" at least 10 years. Also doesn't always similar with secondhand (thrifted) | alifiaassyifa

square one



Warm greetings, everyone! As you might have already seen, this is the first entry in this blog. For a beginning, I’ll just write a bit about myself and things I’m interesting in. But before we’re stepping into those two, I should say that it feels wonderful to be back in the so-called blogging-activities, really. I hadn’t a blog before, actually, then the time went on and off for such period of before I finally decided to knock it on to begin. During that time – after the ‘dead’ of my busineess college activity, fill up of long long holiday. and  – I’m blogless, means that I don’t do anything that is blogging-related. My days were gone lonely and boring. When things are finally got overwhelm, I knew I had to do something... made a blog. Welcome blogging... 


This time conciding with Indonesia's independence day, free survivors! I’ll try my best not to let this blog ended. It needs a big effort, I realize, because the hardest thing about being a blogger – based on what I’ve experienced – is always about consistency. I admit that I was so careless and never take blogging seriously back then, due to my rigid daily schedule at the college and outside... or I’m just – basically – inconsistent and get lazy easily. I don’t know how it became so difficult just to save some little time for writing and posting in my blog. But that’s not a big deal anymore! I’m square one now, start a new blog with more specific focuses. This is my own life-journal and I know I need it – to blog again, to fulfill my need of communication, whether with myself or others in the blogging community. And I truly hope this one will works better :)

Anyway, most of you haven't known me yet, so I'll write a brief explanation about myself. My name is Alifia Assyifa, sometimes called Alifia or Syifa, or even cipul (around closer people nickname, you know, it keeps following me). I'm 18 and I study medical faculty in muhammadiyah semarang university. This is my second year now, and these are the ideals of my kindergarten become a doctor like my super mother...... Umm, what else? I love beach, mountains, rivers, hills, anything outside my house that could bring me the sense of breathing the clean, fresh air everytime I go there. I enjoy spending time near the nature. So I do love science, to be physician, medical - medicine ; oh I pretty love both   

Even I study medical – which means that my days are familiar with physician activities or more proccess to be like learned anamnesis, diagnose and provide therapy. At this stage, I’ve been studying the introduction diagnose a disease from varieties of symptoms arising until the investigation is supposed to be right to do. I’m not going to write about such things which gives the impression of serious things or nerdy. I prefer to discuss a lightweight, easy insersion of materials received with mild learning or write about how I'm interested in doing creative works, like, designing, book-scrapping,  medical article, figures, else. So this blog will go around that ‘other side’ of me, like the things I like, anything that inspires me, my outfits’ diary, and probably several topics around vintage fashion. I’m not really good at fashion, literally – I’m talking about the mainstream lines and styles – but I believe that everyone has their own fashion desires and it’s okay if I share mine. My favorite style is pretty much influenced by the vintage fashion, for its simplicity, ‘beau’ness, and classic sense. I’m still exploring this topics, actually... I can say that I almost totally blank about fashion-related writings, but I’ll learn. At last, So... Thanks for come by and stop to read! We’ll see again in my next post – hopefully.
