Look What I've Found

Those clothes up there are secondhand clothes I found at Pasar Senen. Actually I bought them a long long time ago and should’ve posted this right after I bought them but unfortunately I didn’t get the chance to post it till now. I forgot how much money I spent to buy those clothes, but believe me they’re as cheap as dirt. Still, each one of them looks like a brand new cloth.

For those of you who haven’t been there (Pasar Senen) yet, you might be wondering, where on earth is that place? No it’s not located in the middle of Pasar Minggu and Pasar Selasa. It’s located in Central Jakarta, near Plaza Atrium and Terminal Senen.

Don’t be gasped if you found that place really crowded. Hey, it’s a market and you know how the crowd loves Indonesian’s market. But don’t give up and held your heads high ‘cause all the sweat you get from ‘kepanasan’ at this market will be paid when you finally find some really good clothes with a really good price. 

A few weeks ago I went there again, this time I was looking for something to read and voila I found this old books and magazine.

Sylvia Plath’s The Bell Jar and L.J. Smith’s The Vampire Diaries. Guess how much did I pay for those two… 25k rupiahs! The papers inside of them may look so old and brown but it still read-able.

Nylon Indonesia's first issue, Concept 's Fashin Graphics issue, and Livingetc. Each for 10k!
