JAKARTA FINDS: Senopati Shopping [CLOSED]

July 19, 2011

After leisurely lunch with hubby and that orgasmic cup of creme brulee latte at Anomali Coffee Senopati, I was energized. I wanted to explore more of Jalan (street) Senopati!  I made 2 wonderful discoveries that I wanna share with you. Check em out after the jump!

The first was Nenen Baby Store, which was perfect because I was looking for a baby shower gift for a friend. Nenen has so much cute stuff inside! I highly recommend you check it out if you have a baby.

I found the cutest lady bug strap that can be used by a toddler learning to walk as a harness so that mommy/daddy can give a little support when they fall. I think this would be great as well to prevent losing your child on excursions or during travel. What do you think?

The other store, a few feet a way from Nenen, was Glaze Boutique. I was able to buy a black caftan with white print which feels so luxurious and comfortable. It was a about 50 USD and though a bit pricey for the bargain hunter in me, I honestly think it was a good deal because this dress is so versatile and can be dressed up and dressed down depending on my shoes and accessories. (i.e. stilettos + clutch + diamonds = dress up  OR wedge + my Fino bag + long necklace with beads  = dress down) I can also use it as luxury resort wear over a bikini.  Check out my beachy look below, which I wore because I totally missed the beach (Boracay! Cebu!) this summer. If I can’t come to the beach it can come to me! =P

They had so much cute stuff and some were on sale as well. The thing that prevented me from going crazy (aside from TD and our budget) is that I have a rather irregular figure (hour glass) and the clothes are made for more modest hips and busts. Sigh. I noticed that here in Jakarta my arse seems to be super-sized because I can’t seem to fit in many of the LARGE sizes. (Whuuuut?!?) While in Kamiseta Philippines (Katie Holms is so cute in their current campaign!) I am  comfy in a medium and if I want something super low-waisted, I get a large.

Caftan NENEN Jakarta,  starfish wedge shooes and long necklace CMG Manila, French gold plated brass earrings FELICITY in Shangri-la Mall Manila (FIRMA’s sister store) Note: I’m not sure if it is still open or it transferred location but I still visit FIRMA in Greenbelt 3 Manila)

If you wanna check out Nenen and Glaze Boutique, watch out for these signs on your LEFT side when you are in Jalan Senopati. Address and other available contact details below.

UPDATE:

 I went back to look for another caftan at Glaze Boutique. Unfortunately it has already closed down. =(

    You look good in gold! I love your dress, too!!! Great styling! The Nenen Bayi store is cute, too! What a fun day you had on Jalan Senopati! I had no idea about those stores! I love finding out about new places in Jakarta. Don’t worry. You’re petite. I notice about the size. My daughter got this dress bought in Jakarta from our friend and the chest area is sooo small. You know my second child? She’s skin and bone and it fits perfectly on her. I don’t know if it fits normal size kid. My first one at that age would have not fit in this dress. Anyways, thanks for sharing!!
