A designer with great heart: Jovian Mandagie
If you read my previous post talking about Jovian, you would agree that his RTW collection are to die for.
Like literally!
Often we see most designers would charge handsome amount of fee when it comes to their design whenever they are at the top of the rank
and sadly some being so selective and their clothing line does not cater for middle - income and low - income earner like us
Ones can only drool and dream about being in one of the pieces they have designed
But not this year
This year, we were rather lucky as most designers are feeling like giving back to the community and instead of charging bomb mullah, they produced an affordable range so to speak
20 by Rizalman, Cosry Purple Label and the one that created the most phenomenon is non other than Jovian Mandagie
Yes!

When I first hear that the latter are coming out with RTW collection, I was sceptical. Let us be honest, who would have thought that average people can don the Jovian look on the first day of Eid without having to burn most of our savings just for a dress. So my initital thought, the line sure will be the simplest design possible with no attention to details and material
But boy I was wrong
Range of fabric used are mostly good ones (sorry, Im not Jakel I cant really describe the name of the fabric) but you know for sure that it is good quality
Unlike lycra (hurmmm)
Designs are mostly feminine with attention to details, (lace, beads and stuff).
Usually when someone buy a kurung or kebaya the only fear that they have in mind is having someone else wearing the same exact design at the same time
But I think no one could even bother about it now. None of us worried that someone else is wearing it. The most important part is, ITS JOVIAN
So, if youve heard that a boxing day sales will be held for his final batch of collection, yup you heard it right.

Jovian by Jovian Mandagie: Juliette For Sale
UPDATE: Both Jules and Juliette were sold to 2 lovely ladies. Ouh ya y'all, good luck for Boxing Day :)
The beautiful Juliette
I bet everybody's aware of the new phenomenon created by non other than Jovian Mandagie, famous designer here in KL.
Jovian has created a RTW line that is so affordable and turn everyone upside and down
Strangers became friends,
Friends became enemies,
all for one name
J by Jovian
I happened to be one of them
But me being the lazy me...
No strength to go through the sea of people flooding First Lady in Jalan Tar
Ive decided to purchase it via Zalora.
Read a lot of bad review about the site
About it being unreliable with the delivery and handling the beautiful pieces itself
But Alhamdulillah I did not face any problem with them
Just that one problem
I bought the wrong size
Well you know that I recently upgraded meself to one notch higher in the size department
Nothing to be proud of, shame more like
So I refer to the chart and told myself who am I kidding me in S size
So i bought 2 pieces of the line
Jules and Juliette to be exact
Only to realise that its big for me
For one second it created a smile on my face
Means I am still in S size according to Jovian
Fuiyyoooo
But the problem is I cant wear oversize garment
Because if I alter it, it wont do any justice to the beauty
I am letting it go
With heavy heart
Knowing that my sacrifice of clicking 'Refresh' every 2 seconds on 30 July paid me nothing
and knowing that I can never wear those magnificient piece
I am letting Juliette go
RM380
Light Grey color
M size
and free postage
I am feeling a little bit charitable today
So yah, free postage for you
If you want to purchase it
email me at mclarenna@gmail.com
Serious buyer only
Ive been receiving FB msg asking me
"Do you think I will look nice in it?"
apakahhhhhhhhhhhhhh

[Trippin']: Paree Day 2: Cont
Okay,
While waiting for zalora to upload the latest collection of Jovian by Jovian Mandagie, lets upload some scheduled entry shall we
Lets continue where I put a hold on my post previously
After breakfast and after shoe searching at H&M, we headed to the subway and take the metro to see the most famous Eiffel Tower. Theres 2 station that can lead to the tower but I cant remember which one that I alighted
Funny thing when we stepped out of the metro, we were chit chatting and laughing and gossiping with each other without knowing that Eiffel Tower is just around the corner.
After we took a left turn out from the station, its already there
So both of us went WAAAAAHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH like those jakun tourist
Hehehhe.
feeling - feeling
Siene River
Overlooking Siene River
It feels so surreal finally I am at Paris, under the Eiffel Tower. Sounds cliche much? Whatever
Quite a walk from the station. Exhausted and thirsty
There were a lot of local selling cheap souvenirs but word has it that we have to be very careful if we wish to purchase from them. If police patrol happen to catch them at the time you are planning to buy, you are screwed because they will run away with you money and their stuff. No chance for you to get your balances and even your items
But those were pretty cheap I must say. for a moment, I was tempted
But nahh, isokay. Scared
After picture session and aww- session at the tower, we took the river cruise with BatoBus river cruise. It is a cruise that doubled bus. You can always alight and enter at any station so long you have your ticket with you. Cheap way to get around the city
Costs us EUR15 each. Not too bad.
scanning the leng chais at the other boat
the scenery
this is a restaurant on river. coolies
i always love the building and architecture in Paris. It feels alive and have some history. eventhough there is no skyscrapper, but the city still has the element of development and legendary at the same time
Bulsssss
Musee d Orsay
Stopped at Musee d Orsay thinking I should visit one museum here. But looking at the line
Nahhhhhhhhhhhhhh
Forget it
Street art
Can only pose
If you wish to visit the museum you can always reserve the entrance slots in advance via internet. However it is limited and priority will be given to the elderly. I wonder whats inside the museum. Must be cool
Another half of the journey next
Tired.......
p/s: managed to get Jovian b Jovian Mandagie but turns out i bought wrong size for myself. But im still smiling. apparently im still in S size department
Weeeeee
