Love Story x Weareall


I think I have never posted anything personal about me at all except inspirational words. It is good to get to know you all since I believe that somehow there's something we are connected to one another. This might be the very first post that I am talking about "Love Story" of my life. Don't worry it's not gonna be miserable or emotional lol

Even though, some people think that I don't have boyfriend because of how independent I am, I have been going out with someone for a year. It sounds like awwwwww so sweet, but please I have been through shitty love for all of my life. Therefore, I feel like this man is like the best treasure I have ever found. Some of you may know that I lost my ex from the accident a few years ago, so I am not kind of serious person when it comes to any attachments or relationship since personally I don't think that marriage is important to me. 

In my life, I have met wide variety of men but 90% of them were completely jerks. Behind this blogging sphere, I am just one of those women who live and breath normally like everybody else. And my love life couldn't be worse. I am not gonna make myself sounds like a cliche type or 15 years old girl talking about the first love though. I think I have been through a lot, the pain is so much that I don't really think I would want to date with anybody. You know when you are treated in a bad way, or your feelings are fucked enough, it just like "DONE" 

However, you gotta get back on track and keep your guard up again and again because this is your life, a part of the word "human-being" I have never blamed about my past nor regretted about anything because it is the past. In fact, you just can't do anything about it. People ask "How do you always be so strong after the nightmare?" I cried my heart out to be honest. However, I just feel like I have to get up and move on. It is useless to cry over something that you can't fix. When I see young girls these days cry and beg for the guys to come back, I just want to tell them "You are better off without him darling, go, get dress and live your life" It sounds hard but it's true. 

Whenever I have a break down moment about love, I always think "The only person who I will cry for is my family. No matter how many times my mom or dad makes a complaint, still they are there for me. They raise me for all my life, they pay for tuition fee, my food and everything. Compared to just one person who make me cry like a bitch. Why I am so stupid"

I know it sounds harsh, but it helps me move on stronger.

The Equinox Fashion at Dr.Martens Manchester Arndale


If you guys remember that The Equinox Fashion received a voucher from Arndale, Manchester a few months ago due to the big student night out event. However, I tag team with them for the 2nd time but this is all about choosing the dress for the ultimate party dress called "After Dark" hosted by Arndale in November 27th, 2014. 

Approximately 23 bloggers are assigned to go to allocated stores in Manchester Arndale in order to pick the dresses to showcase at the event. Even though, we are all chosen by the stores randomly, I still got "Dr.Martens" which I felt a bit surprised when I received an email from the marketing team. There are wide variety of brands, but isn't it coincidence for a street blogger like me to work with Dr. Martens?! I think this world is going insane lol

However, the big challenge is Dr.Martens don't do glamourous dresses like any other brands. And my first question that popped inside my head was "Do they even have a dress!?"...Nope, they don't and that's why it is a big deal for me in order to pick something that different from others. Well, I don't really wear a feminine dress anyway so it's quite fun for me to go for something which I call 'street fashion

Anyway, I really had a great time at the store since everyone was so nice to me. I spent probably half an hour opting the 'dress' (but I'd rather call it something else) and shoes to match with.And here are some behind the scene photos of The Equinox Fashion at Dr.Martens Manchester Arndale

Everyday Is My "Blog" Day x Rock On Ruby


"Everyday is my 'Blog' day" is a slogan jumper I designed for Rock On Ruby since I think this is the right quote of my life at the moment. 


It has been three months since I touched down at Manchester, United Kingdom and I really enjoy every single minute I spend the time here. Even though Master Degree is kind of insane, I still happy with my daily activities including blogging and working on projects assigned from university. No matter how tired I am, blogging for The Equinox Fashion is a MUST. 

To be honest, blogging in this country is really a great opportunity to be exposed and showcase what style you've got, as well as who you are. People here have wide variety of styles which never make me feel bored (I guess..) but sometimes you gotta see some of those people who are trying too hard to forget to be themselves. I am very positive person you might have ever met, and that's why I feel pretty chillaxing while working on my blog. 

Some people say that blogging here is really competitive and so on, however, I always stay true to myself and don't really give a f*** to any circumstances. Frankly, I think media and numbers of followers on Instagram or any other social platforms are the big influences on making people want to drive their numbers in order to compete against one another. Some even use a shortcut by buying followers, or some even play a big trick by using the followers of others. I can say this because one of my (used to) fellow blogger has played this shitty game behind my back. I am not really angry, instead I feel like "It's better to walk separate way" I was always being too soft to people to realize that they want to take benefits from me. 

Anyway, it is really a waste of my time to just think about it ( I literally think it is really disgusting just to think of that person face tbh). In this industry, you can do whatever you want, you can make a decision whatever you feel like as long as you think it is the best thing for you. I don't judge people but I learn from the surroundings. My advice is "don't let the bad vibes or technologies consume you" The more you feel like competing, the more you are starting to ruin yourself. 

You are the winner, and you will always be.

Event: Fragrance Direct


Aren't these cupcakes looking lovely!? To be honest, every event fulls of cupcakes, but these are my favourite so far. 

The Equinox Fashion had an opportunity to go to the event hosted by Fragrance Direct on November 12th, 2014. This was actually the first Christmas blogger party of FD, but personally I think the team did a very good job. In this event, you could try wide variety of fragrances provided by different brands, but unfortunately it was quite packed when I arrived so I didn't have a proper chance to spray some on. 

Instead, I decided to get my nails done by the manicure artist who was really incredible. Normally, I don't really do anything to my nails since one of my nails was horribly damaged by the chemical. So, I was quite scared..However, I decided to give it a try this time because it looked fun! 

I'm not gonna lie, but I have been drinking way too much from the events I have been to. And the one here tasted friggin' GOOD. I love passion fruit, therefore I ordered something mixed with it and it tasted so nice! I feel bad to tell you that sometimes I can be a little bit tipsy at the events because I always pour an alcohol in my mouth way too fast, so no need to tell you that it happened at Fragrance Direct too. However, I tried my best to stand straight and talked consciously lol Well, it was a party, wasn't it? ;)

Sponsored Post: Step into Christmas in Style


Christmas is just around the corner guys, are you excited about it!? 

Personally, I don’t really have a proper traditional Christmas dinner or anything, however, my family hosted the party two years ago and it was so good. The reason was that it would be amazing to be gathered by family members and relatives who I had not seen for ages. We live in the modernized society, so it is hard to get together since everyone has his/her own responsibilities to do at the momentIt is sad to be 6,000 miles away from my family this year and I guess it is too late to get a flight ticket at the moment. That’s the sad part of my story…

When I saw this video by Very.co.uk it’s able to somehow remind me of what would I have done if I had a chance to celebrate this festive season with my friends. I think it is very cute because it is about women in their 20s having a great time on Christmas. It is quite fashionable and festive at the same time, isn’t it?

‘’Step into Christmas in Style’’ by Very.co.uk is all about the fun brand Ambassador, Fearne Cotton and her friends. I love the way which all of them start emerging from the magazines because they look so lively! I am writing this post just to share my favourite Christmas’s video because for me, I love I will always choose fun and happy videos over more emotional ones.I can’t watch the sad one because it is going to make me cry and miss my home even more! Therefore, hopefully this cheerful and stylish Chistmas video will be able to brighten up your day too!

Why Sportswear ? x Get The Label


From Addias jacket from "Winter I'm Ready x Get The Label" post to the Nike one in the latest, Get The Label provided me with full stream sports items in order to be matched with my street style.  

Sometimes I find it difficult to select the products since I don't really wear anything girly. However, I can't use such excuse for all of my life, can I? Because for me, fashion is all about pairing the clothes to be your signature look. It is quite challenging of how can I toy each piece together to be street style. There always be a way to do that. Even a feminine dress, I can elevate the outfit to be the whole new level. 

Apart from street fashion, sportswear is something I always put on my body too. I love working out and love wearing comfortable clothes. I don't have time to carry or even change the outfit in the same day because I am just too lazy to do that. Therefore, I usually select the handy gym gear items to go outdoor including department stores. Some people may feel awkward or look down on people with sportswear as "tasteless" I still remember the day which I wore sportswear from top to toes, and the BA in the stores looked at me as if I was far from the word fashion blogger. I think it's funny actually lol because normally I don't really waste my time considering how people thinking about what I wear anyway. Plus, if you look down on people then chances are others will probably judge you as well. Karma you know...nahhhhhh

I don't know, it just comfortable with sportswear, and I like it like that. Likewise, this Nike pair from Get The Label is one one of the comfiest shoes I have. I walk pretty fast (because sometimes I have to run after the bus lol) So, to wear proper shoes which do not hurt your soles is the best feeling ever! I hate wearing wedges for hours and come back home doing nothing but laying my feet on the bed. 

I love wedges but sometimes Nike is just better ;)

Photo Shoot with Grafea, Manchester

©Grafea

The photo shoot with Grafea was really amazing, and I could say that it was one of the smoothest photo shoot ever since it was all about street style

Some people may ask "Who is Grafea?" It is Manchester based brand which specializes in high-quality bag. Every single bag is designed and produced with premium leather that makes the bags even more durable. If you have a chance to check out Grafea's website, you will see loads of beautiful bags, as well as, camera bags and satchels. 

Believe it or not, sometimes I can be really shy in front of the camera. I don't know either I should smile or not, and I guess some of you may have the same problem like I do lol However, whenever I put my street style items on, I feel like myself the most. Similar to the photo shoot with Grafea, I literally felt confident about it. It was the 1st time working with Amy, the photographer&PR of the brand, however, everything went so well and we got along just fine. It's like a team work to be honest! We both love Graffiti and street art, so we spent an hour walking randomly just to find some cool locations to shoot. I worked backstage and in a studio before, so I did see some kinds of people who acted too divaism to cope with the shoot. Some didn't even want to move anywhere, while some kept asking for posh/glam locations only. For my bloggers out there, when brands give you an opportunity to work together, put 200% in it. It is good for yourself, also the relationship for the next collaboration. Some of my friends don't like Graffiti or can't even deal with street locations because they think it's dirty, but if they can't adapt themselves to certain situations, I don't really know how they can cope with their lives. 

When the opportunity arrives, "Give it all you've got!" Make the camera loves you, make the brand loves you and feel confident about it.

Event: Private White V.C.


On October 22, 2014, The Equinox Fashion was invited to an exclusive AW14 launch party hosted by Private White V.C., British based brand which actually has its manufacture in Manchester, United Kingdom. It wasn't just the event like any others since I could literally take a look at in house behind-the-scene process which was really insight and amazing. Also, personally I feel like the word "British brand" adds even more value to the prestigious of the brand since instead of having the products produced in China or Turkey, Private White V.C. has decided to have them manufactured here in Britain. I think it's like the heritage.

This was the very first "menswear" event I attended and I was really fascinated by how the brand organized an event to be such relaxing yet classy in the style of Private White V.C. I love the event like this more than some other bling bling events. If you know what I mean, some brands try too hard to please bloggers and other attendees. It is good but sometimes I just can't see the character or signature of the brand. 

I love this cozy ambience of Private White V.C. because it was so natural. There were only invited people so it made me feel as if I was attending a house party (But in more luxurious way) which was quite good. Not only I could take a look at all brand new Autumn/Winter 14 pieces, drink white wine, but also walk up to the 2nd floor which showcased its actual working area that you could literally see the patterns, garments and etc. It was really good I must say!
