I think it is no secret anymore that I love to wear clothes designed by my favourite designer Yani Soemali.  She designs easy to wear outfits using the best Indonesian traditional fabric like Batik and Tenun.  If I go on a trip abroad, I would easily take her jackets and wear them with jeans or basic black pants. In these pictures, I am wearing a woven Makasar silk that is constructed into a light, edgy looking coat.  I think this long airy coat is very versatile, you can wear it with jeans, or even you can take your favourite kain or wear it alone like a dress.  I think the colours are just so vibrant and alive and yes, it happened to match with my FENDI bag.  Love Love Love everything that she made and designed.  I only not love the clothes she designs but I love her as a person.  She is like a big sister to me, I really look up to her.  She is super talented, down to earth, and not to me mention a sophisticated and beautiful lady inside and out.  Proud of you mba Yani…you are an inspiration to us all.  Check out how pretty she is here….
