do you need to wear prada to feel confidence?

yesterday i felt so fabulous...
i wear my no label sweet kind of kimono shirt, and my seed three quarter jeans and style it up with my perfect gold vincci+ shoe. oh, and i wear an Elle jacket because it was raining hard and it felt like you just need to lay and lay lazy in your warm blanket. but it was my revision, so... in need to get up early, take a bath with icy water, and go early.

then i walked out, felt alive and confidence... walking with my soundtrack that day "all dressed in love - Jennifer Hudson". just like that was my lucky day, as i walked to the bus stop, the bus was coming. i took that bus and oh my god, the bus just felt like the first class bus. all was dressed so good in guess, prada, Louis vuitton, channel, all that luxury handbag, dress, and shoes...

suddenly i dropped my confidence. put it below my vincci tip toe. i felt like invisible in this dress. they never smile to girl who dressed in love, they just smile to all this P, LV, C and G things...

but i put all my negative and my positive together. more to negative actually. why all this Richie woman want to take this morning crowded bus and mrt just to scratch their thousands dollar prada? or is it just to show up? or maybe it is fake?? why they don't just take taxi or their own private car? you can never figure it out...

then i took mrt, with my favorite door. then i saw a girl, that just wear a hang ten shirt, denim skirt and basketball shoes. but what the.... she took out her phone,an i-phone...
it is meant that she is rich, man! but why she don't want to wear maybe the better one, guess or any other label but not hang ten Giordano and baleno.

after that i notice that there just a few of this kind of girl in Singapore. of course for 20-25 yo girl or maybe we can already call them woman. what differentiate them? it it because some are still study and some are working? but i have a friend that always bring her prada, guess, all these luxury stuff.

is it the reason to make girl feeling confidence?
is it all this P, LV, C, G, things that pump your confidence?
then why all this baleno, Giordano, and hang ten girls also feel confidence of them self?
so what is actually make you feel confidence?
is it your hair? or is it you body shape, or is it your height?

then i met a Malay woman. an old woman who was squeeze by a man and a prada woman who looked like doesn't like this Malay woman at all. since i was standing at a lot of space, i offer my position to this old woman.

like a storm coming, she said "thank you cantik". maybe she don't know that i am Indonesian and i understand what is cantik mean. its the first time after this six month somebody call me cantik... ahahaha... i was shocked but smiled to that old woman.

the i realized, why i even need a stranger to remind me that i am beautiful?
and that is the thing that make me feel confidence. not that prada, and bonia, and guess bag or shoes. even I'm not beautiful at my face, at least i got a beautiful heart... :D

because i changed place with that Malay woman, and i gained my confidence back and its already reach my destination... its time for me to squeeze them, not to be squeezed. I'm sorry... you gonna regret to bring your prada to this war land...

then i walked out, again...
felt alive and confidence of myself...
