Yellow Curry

Cooking is my new found love and I love watching Jamie Oliver's 30 minutes Meal because I want my food cooked fast and easy. So today I attempted one of his meal, yumm I say! I replaced butternut squash in the original recipe with potatoes in the curry, and didn't put mustard seeds in the lemon pickle dish because I didn't have any in my kitchen. I think the pickle complemented curry quite well, it has a tangy bitter sour taste (macam acar!). 

Original recipe by The Naked Chef himself: Veggie Curry and Lemon Pickles

Here's my recipe in case you're curious!

Enjoy!

a day with Wardah & Dian

We met with Dian again, this time also with Wardah Cosmetics representatives. Wardah Cosmetics is an Indonesian brand halal cosmetic. We were each given a Wardah product to sample on and I got a lip pallette!  Love it ♥ And then we got to talking about Hijabers Community Indonesia, Dian explained about the organisation and their activities, we were in awe and very much amazed at how much effort and time has been put behind Hijabers Community. It's very very inspiring! Compared to Scarflets, we have none to be proud of.. with that in mind, we want to start even with small steps we hope to start the change we want to see in the world (quoting Gandhi). Therefore this Sunday at 10am - 12pm there will be a hijab styling session held at Old Blossom Box Store in Shah Alam. InsyaAllah we are hoping that we can help as much people as we can slowly. The attendance for that event itself is alhamdulillah full at 45-50 pax, hopefully there will be more event like this in the future. For more info, please contact Jezmine at jezmineblossom@yahoo.com

So, thank you so much to Dian and Hijabers Community for being such an inspiration. We hope to be as an amazing force as you guys are! Any tips and thoughts please? ;)

Afterwards we proceeded outside, for some style shot session and photos together ♥

All in all, thank you so much Dian & Wardah for such a good time and I hope one day Scarflets will be as strong and big like Hijabers Community Indonesia. Let's meet up Hijabers! I'll be in Bandung end of this month for vacation, anyone wanna show me around? :P

what i wore

So when I knew that I was going to a fashion event by the famous Indonesian fashion designer Dian Pelangi, obviously I was quite nervous. I knew I had to incorporate some tribal print that day coz in respect to Dian's love for tribal/batik prints. And one thing about me is that I always unconsciously pick hot pink for fashion events! I think this is my third/fourth time wearing hot pink to fashion events and I didn't even realize I actually like the color that much :/

Made a poll about which shoe to go with my outfit, I asked my instagram followers and the boots won! But by then I was already on my way to the event wearing the pumps. I chose the pumps because I was going to be surrounded by ladies and I thought the pumps just added a bit of sophistication to my whole look (I hope!).

It's been awhile since I put an effort into using make-up lol. My skin really needs a better moisturiser, sigh.

What do you think? Should I've gone with the boots or the pumps was a better choice?
