Useful Tips During Quarantine

📍 Seoul, South Korea

The Equinox Fashion at Seoul Airbnb

It has been more than a week since the last time I went outside. All of the meetings were canceled, hanging out with friends also put off, in other words, all the activities have been suddenly stopped since the covid-19 pandemic started (intensely) For me, I don't have 100% of the impact since I have already been working from home as a branding and marketing consultant. That is one of the reasons why I don't really have to adapt a way of living that much. However, it is getting intense days by days since the numbers of patients and diseased people increasing (sharply) We all can't hang out outside like we were, however, for the sake of everyone, it is a good thing to stay indoor and be aware of the situation. If you are looking for some tips while quarantining at home, here are some useful tips from my end. 

3 Reasons Why You Should Stop Caring What Other People Think

I am still learning and trying to do my best in everyday. The more I grow up, the more I realise that life is just what it is. I mean I cannot change other, the only thing I can do is to adapt my mindset of how to cope with all the pressure and bs in everyday life. Seriously, no joke I have always be an honest person since started writing for The Equinox Fashion blog. And I am still that person who says what I think, and always want to inspire "you, us, and everyone" who read this blog. Today, I just want to say how much I feel so alive and don't give a f***** about what people think. I know it is hard not to care about what they say, but honestly these are the personal reasons, which you can give it a shot. I mean, the reasons from a straightforward blogger (if you are ok with it) 

Don't Value Your Worth by Instagram

📍 Bangkok, Thailand

I've been in this road as a blogger for almost decade, and I've learnt a lot of things. Recently, I've been working and paying attention so much on my job as a founder of Dai Agency, as well as, re-creating my online shop Hidden Treasure Store. My job is very flexible, yet time consuming because digital marketing and branding is the core. However, as I've been taking part in influencer marketing, somehow, it's made me realise that people these days can be taken away by just a number of followers on Instagram. I mean, I was one of them honestly. Follower of The Equinox Fashion was everything to me, and I thought I could easily become popular in this platform. More money, more PR, more reputation, and etc. But seriously, these days I don't really give a f*** about numbers anymore. 

ELLE Fashion Week, Asava AW19

📍 Bangkok, Thailand

The 2nd day of ELLE Fashion Week AW19 has begun, and I couldn't be more excited to present you another renowned Thai fashion designer's brand "ASAVA" Since I begun my career as a fashion blogger of The Equinox Fashion, his fame has already risen to the top as a leading designer of Thailand. For this fashion show, Asava AW19, it was all about the beauty of an authenticity, which honestly I quite loved the simplicity in the design (especially the dress showcase above)

How to Find Who You Are?

📍Tokyo, Japan

One thing I really feel lucky is that I've found who I really am way too earlier than some others. I know who I am, and I know what I want. Of course, sometimes I get lost, get distracted and have no idea what to do or move forward. However, the more I grow up, the more I notice that my personality's been shaped to the point of no return. I've found my voice and I know what to do with it. As being Thai blogger of The Equinox Fashion for probably 7 years, I can see myself evolving to the full version of myself. Some people ask my "how to find who you are?" Work from Monday to Friday, go out for a drink, and so what?? I've been asked many times, and the only advice I can give is to "spend the time with yourself"

How to be Your Own #GIRLBOSS

📍Bangkok, Thailand

Ok, where should I begin? In September 2018, I was kicked out from the fashion company (for the most absurd reason) which I'm not gonna complain how drama it was. Yes, I lost my job, broke up with my boyfriend, and visa application to Japan wasn't going well as I had expected. Too much going on in a few months, and it made me think 'maybe I must find a full-time job to secure my life asap!" However, nothing was interesting enough...That's why I've decided to be my "own boss" instead. Let me be clear, it's all about luck + connection to get this individual career going. What do I do nowadays? Not only a blogger of The Equinox Fashion, but also content creative, social media marketing, branding, and writer for other clients. I've started from 1 client, to a few, and now I have a small team of talented people who work together. I'm so blessed to be kicked out from the company actually! 

Why Love is Not the Answer to Happiness

📍Bangkok, Thailand

I have read a lot of 2019 resolutions on Instagram, and I wish I had one. I think every year, I just write goals I want to achieve actually. Not only career, but also money and health in general. However, the biggest lesson for me from last year was "Love is not the answer to happiness" I used to think that being in a relation was the fulfillment in life. Having a boyfriend, getting married, and being the happiest girl in the world. Slap my face twice, this is the reality. I'm truly happy for those who are in a good place. But for me, love is not as easy as growing the career. 

Content is King 2019

📍Tokyo, Japan

In 2019, content is still the key to get an attention from the audience. Not only I'm a blogger of The Equinox Fashion, I've also been working in a field of branding and marketing for a few clients (view my portfolio) That's why I can say 100% "content is the king" I'm not gonna talk about how to write a content in this post, but I want to talk about the best way to grab attention from your audience from the perspective of a marketer. No matter if you are a blogger, writer, or a marketer just like me, these tips may be able to help you get some ideas to create some contents. If you are interested in working in the branding, I will share my experience and how to create a brand later :)

3 Types of Men You Should Never Date

📍Bangkok, Thailand

My friends were right, I should have loved myself before sharing my love to someone else. At the age of 29, I have learnt a lot about 'love & relationship' Honestly, it's not easy for me. Such a sensitive topic, yet essential for all of us. Though I am a blogger of The Equinox Fashion, I am just a normal woman. I guess everyone has been through a heart broken situation or a stressful one, which you wish you could disappear for 1 day. Based on my experience, here are 3 types of men you should never date. Because honestly, I am now much happier without them. (This can be applicable to both men and women, but I'm a woman, so I'm writing regarding from our perspective) Don't judge me. 

How to Get Over Depression

📍Bangkok, Thailand

So, where should I begin?... 4 months journey of me struggling with myself. Honestly, I don't know if my case was that horrible to be called 'depress' But It was a nightmare. I literally lost motivation, and no will to fight for anything, as I was so d**** tired of everything. For those who follow The Equinox Fashion Instagram (@thequinoxfashion) My insta stories were somehow sad, dark, like an emotional ass kid. Well, what happened was I'm back single, lost the job, didn't get a visa to go to Japan. These situations happened 2 weeks after another, what a coincidence right? The moment I lost the will to think about anything was real. I went back home, laid on the bed, and starred at the ceiling with no thoughts. I know compare to others, what I had been through might be normal. However, one thing after another was just too harsh for me to accept and process my thoughts & emotions. 

How to Deal with Toxic People

📍Bangkok, Thailand

"We are all different" Just in case, we have to remind ourselves that we are not going to be pleased by others all the time. The more I grow up, the more I learn to control my frustration towards people. Or maybe, I am just an introvert person (what it's like to be introvert?) -->> I love animal more than human (lol) Every day in life, I have come across many types of human-being; Show off (a.k.a. talk shit), Coward, Drama ass, and etc. However, today I'm just gonna talk about how to deal with those who love to show off. Because I think everyone has faced this type of annoying person at some points in life, especially at school, office, or even department store. I think the most important advice is to 'keep it low-key'

B Duck Cafe, Cafe in Bangkok to Visit

📍Bangkok, Thailand

Looking for a cute cafe to visit in Bangkok? 'B Duck Cafe' can be the right place for those who need yummy brownie and iced chocolate. Not only those, but also other delicious cakes and ice-cream flavors you can try. Honestly, I really love cafe hopping (read more here) Some places are just good for the Insta-worthy lifestyle photo shot 'do it for the gram!', and dessert is literally overrated and not delicious. However, B Duck Cafe's got good qualifications; colorful cute decor, good taste, reasonable price. I've been to this cafe many times. That's why I would to share my real experience with you *มีภาษาไทยด้านล่างค่ะ*

Don't Beg for Love, Let Them Walk Away.

📍Bangkok, Thailand

This might a very difficult topic to write, because the heart-broken situation's just recently happened to me. I had never expected to be in a position of being dumped, but it happened. For whatever reason, the another party has decided to walk away from my life. No reason, no prediction, just happened. I've been struggling over my emotions for these months. Though, it's not completely healed yet, I'm trying to suppress it, forget it, and changing my focus. However, fighting with the turmoil inside is not easy (right?) So, I've decided to just "LET HIM WALK AWAY" I can't let it go 100%, but I have to. 

Self-love is Important, Self-love is not Selfish

📍Bangkok, Thailand

Recently, I've been through a TOUGH time and honestly it's made me feel like life is unfair. I'm a person who dwells (deeply) in the past, I know it's not good. The more I think about how good the past was, the more I suffer. Because, life is unpredictable. Today we laugh, tomorrow we cry, I've learnt 100% that I shouldn't hold on to what is unstable. I'm a Leo woman, we are the king of the jungle. When we do something, we put effort 100%, am I right Leo? 

Visit Carin Hongdae Lounge, Seoul

📍Seoul, Korea

Those who have followed The Equinox Fashion blog for a while, you might remember one of the collaborations I had with CARIN, Korean based eyewear brand (How To Wear Sunglasses x Carin Glasses) Actually, I've become a fan of this brand since we worked together. Not only I love the design, which suits the Asian facial structure, but also my eyes are pretty sensitive and CARIN sunglasses give me such comfort that I wear them almost everyday. That's why I had gotten in touch with them in order to meet in person when I visited Korea. Are you looking for the PINK cafe in Hongdae? Are you planning to buy a pair of decent high-quality sunglasses? Trust me, you don't want to miss this first flagship store!

Can't Sleep at Night? Pillow Spray for Better Sleep Can Help!

📍Bangkok, Thailand

Getting enough sleep is very important to us, right? I feel very frustrated every time I go through the sleepless night(s). The more I try to sleep, the resistance I feel. The worst part is, that one song stuck in my head...Oh dear how the h*** could I just stop repeating!? Whenever I have this problem, I tend to read a book, watch TV series, or even meditate before sleeping. However, I've come across the aroma spray which at least helps me feel relax. Natural made with 2 formulas of 'Lavender & Rosemary' and 'Lavender & Chamomile' These little bottles by Phutawan can be one of the life savers for those who can't sleep at night.

Roberto Cavalli Tribute Fashion Gala in Bangkok

📍Bangkok, Thailand

Have you seen The Equinox Fashion Instagram's latest post yet? That's right, I attended Roberto Cavalli Tribute Fashion Gala alongside Redhill, and it was amazing! Roberto Cavalli is a well-known Italian fashion designer, and his luxury design is literally everything every animal print lover would ask for. The dress code of the night was 'leopard/animal print' And trust me, I was so thrilled to get dressed up in The Equinox Fashion style, because I love leopard and zebra print! Besides, the venue was fabulous. Located on 39th fl of Sathorn Square Tower, The Club at Koi is the world-class clubbing spot you truly need to experience.  

How to Be Strong Woman

📍Seoul, Korea

Honesty, Courage, Upfront, 3 words I would describe myself this year. No matter what, I think it's really important to be honest with yourself and others. It's not about culture of 'spare the feelings', or what you were taught, it's all about 'yourself' Have courage to say or do what you want without fear or judged, that would make you the real 'man' Don't be afraid to express or state opinion, even though it would go against the society. Play dumb is what we women have been taught. To act like we don't know shit in front of a guy, and let them be a hero. Really?

Do what You Love

📍Karmakamet, Bangkok

I don't know when I'll die, that's why I live life to the fullest. I do whatever I want because I have a plan for my life. I'm a crazy woman with the life goal. I'm not scared to quit the job to do new things, as long as I'm 'happy' To live, and experience what it's like to be a human-being in my own version is the most important. People expect me to be like others, I mean 'standard' shit, but 80% of people whom I asked "Are you really happy just the way you wake up, go to work, back home, and that's it? What do you like to do? What's your goal?" Most of the reply were "I don't know. Maybe I'm happy..." I seriously don't get it..And actually I feel sorry for them. It would have been better if they would just follow the heart and do what they want.
