Recently, IU has received a lot of criticism from the netizens regarding one of her songs in her latest mini album, 23. Ironically, the most debated song titled "Zeze" is Noona's most favourite from all her songs in that particular album. Interpretation wise, Noona does not really read the book from where IU got her inspiration on. And to be honest, music is a matter which is highly subjected to each individual's interpretation so Noona supposes if you enjoy the music, you have the right to like it. If you don't enjoy the music, you can just throw it to the side without really hunting the singer (who happens to compose the song). Oh crap, this whole paragraph went totally off topic. Hahaha.

Okay, let's go back to the main topic here, IU's fan-meeting look for her latest mini album, 23. People can criticise her song but with that kind of beauty, who can criticise her look and her style? IU worn formal blue blouse with a grey skirt. The whole look looks so preppy and suits IU so much. Noona is totally a fan of this look. <3

Okay, let's start hunting clothes to steal IU's fan-meeting look for her latest mini album, 23.

For the blouse, Noona managed to find similar blouse from a US fashion brand, NYDJ. This Henley Blouse comes in many color and pattern but one of these colors happens to be blue. It also comes in two sizes, regular and petite. It costs USD 88 at Nordstrom's website.

For the skirt, Noona relies once again on her favourite fashion brand, Topshop. Topshop has this preppy check biker skirt which comes in grey. It sells the skirt for the price of USD 70 at Nordstrom.

If you think the above biker skirt is kinda too short for you, you can opt for the mid-length skirt. Noona found this amazing grey zip-up split front midi skirt from River Island. But, it comes in darker grey though. If you don't mind the color, the midi skirt costs USD 64 at River Island's online store.

We cannot really tell what did IU wear down there but Noona tries to find the perfect pair of shoes which goes right with the whole outfit. Noona thinks nothing fits better than a pair of court shoes in Noona's favourite color, black. This Gallop velvet court shoes comes from Topshop and it is sold at the price of USD 95 at Topshop's website.

IU's style looks so simple and yet, amazingly good. Can't wait to try them in real life.

H:CONNECT is known to sell stylish attires at a reasonable price to its fashion-minded customers. Since, we are still in the fall season (with occasional sunny and winter days), that outerwear of yours is sure still as useful as ever. Since we are looking at outerwear, let's see what we can do with that piece of fashion item. So for today series, let's steal Yoona's look from H:CONNECT pictorial for fall fashion style. Yoona is seen wearing the burgundy coat as an outerwear. Under the coat, she is wearing the striped sweatshirt and black shorts. She completes the look by pairing the teal high-knees socks and brown boots. Add the black hat to create the complete H:CONNECT look.

Noona loves the brown boots the most and she found an alternative to the one worn by Yoona at Steve Madden. The brown fame combat boots from Steve Madden costs cheaper online (USD79.99) compared to its retail price at the store (USD129).

Noona likes the fact that even though the look consists of so many things. These fashion items are kinda easy to find because they are pretty basic in nature. Love them!

When the weather outside is too hot or too cold, it is always good to play in the indoor park of Lotte World. There are attractions across the four levels of Lotte World. Noona is sure that there are rides suitable for every ages in Lotte World. So Lotte World is one of good places to bring your kids to.

What to do in the indoor park of Lotte World?

One of the rides which is fun to enjoy as a family is the Pharaoh's Fury. A family of 4 can fit into one car and you will start your great adventure together to Egypt. This is a simulation drive arcade which is fun to enjoy with both family and friends.

If you prefer for those attractions which are not going to make your heart beat faster, you can go for a balloon ride at Lotty's Hot Air Balloon Flight. Noona and friend shared a balloon together with a group of 3 teenagers, two boys and one girl. Looks like a setting for a Korean drama, eh? They were busy taking wefie in the air though. Hahaha.

From the balloon ride, you will be able to see a the indoor park of Lotte World from the top. There is an indoor roller coaster called Giant Loop. If you watched Running Man before, Giant Loop was featured in one of the early episodes. The episode was so funny because in that particular episode, the participants must ride this roller coaster while singing. Hahaha oh my gawd, Noona can probably only scream her lungs out during the whole ordeal.

There is an ice skating rink inside Lotte World. The admission costs 11,000 Korean won for adults. If you need to rent the skate, there is an additional 5,000 Korean won to pay for the skate rental. A combo ticket (admission + skate rental) costs you 16,000 Korean won.

On the other side of indoor park of Lotte World, there are a lot of castle-like building which houses kind of rides from bumper cars to fairy tale theater to shooting games. Kids will love these attractions to the max. While for us, adults, we probably will enjoy the rides outside these building more.
