farewell & thank you

dear friends,
 
after the enriching, exciting and very eventful time in grazia indonesia  as fashion director and indonesia fashion forward as program & development director, it is with mixed emotions that today i announce my resignation to all of you.

i also want to express my gratitude to all of your support & guidance during my tenure with femina group. please accept my apologies for any mistakes or hard feelings that may have happened during these times.

you can be in touch with me via email at yolandhandoko87@gmail.com or contact me directly at +6281311133026.

birthday wish

my birthday is coming up (well, not until two more months but who's counting anyway?) and i want this baby, ray caesar "art collection: limited edition" as birthday present. i've been a fan of his works since the college days (those days are long gone). the dark, disturbing, and somewhat eerie nuance from his paintings amazes me. he has influenced me aesthetically.

i'm hiring!

hey guys, i'm looking for a freelance fashion assistant. so if you're a hard worker with a flair for fashion, this might be your chance to enter the industry. below are the requirements.

you must be: a hard worker. reliable and prompt. physically and mentally healthy. emotionally stable (because it's not going to be an easy ride). able to write and speak english well.

you must have: infinite passion for fashion. a willingness to learn. a good sense of humor. driver license(s).


if you think you've got what it takes to be my fashion assistant, please send me your cv & portfolio (if any) to my email address: yolandhandoko@yahoo.com

cheers,
yoland handoko

nuevo amanecer

first of all, i'd like to say happy new year 2010 (or happy satvrnalia for my dearest danny tan permadi) to my 12 pretty followers and other wanderers who read this blog casually (or accidently) .

you know, people said january is the right time to have a fresh start. for me, it means literally. a couple of days ago i had lost my contact numbers stored in my blackberry. it sucks so bad. i almost cry.

it's amazing how life could be so unpredictable.

oh well, come what may. if i should start from scratch, i will do it. i accept whatever is coming up because i love what i'm doing.

i think i'm on the right path :).

lost in reverie

check out my work for london based online fashion magazine; cellardoor magazine - winter wonderland issue.

'til my baby comes home
