Khai’s Hen Night

Hello!

It’s been a while, yes? So this girl been busy. And one part extremely lazy to blog. Le sigh. OK OK, let’s get down to business.

My best friend is getting married (at the time of post, she is very much married already. Procrastinator much, Sherry?).

Weddings are always a fun thing to plan with your girlfriends. But we must not forget the most important bit: the hen night!

I volunteered to do the veil, sash and decoration for the party. Of course, being the resident crafter of the group.

Here’s the veil in the making:

I made it using a tutorial from cloth with pegs. But mine is kinda haphazard a bit. My crafting principle is ‘just wing it’ teeheehee. So I pleat and pleat 6 layers of nett and tulle (white,blue and pink) and sew it to the hairband. Then my very reluctant model puts it on, and I just trim each layer according to my liking. Kids, don’t be like me.

I made favor bags for the occasion as well. Or more suitably called as Survival Kit:

Content: Shot glass, Panadol. Handiplast, pocket mirror and and the naughty bit, a condom in each bag. I am quite a prude *coughs* so buying the box of condoms is quite a chore for me -__-

Moving on, the bride is a big fan of Rio (the animation) so I planned the theme around that. We planned a dinner and afterwards drinks at our usual haunt. The bride herself stopped drinking a while ago so we don’t have any binge drinking planned. Oh that’s why I printed bridal shower on the deco instead of hen nite because it’s daintier muahaha *Yes, my logic*. But we didn’t get presents for her so..yeah..whatever.

Since the theme is Rio, I imposed a strict ‘must-dressed-colorful’ rule on everybody. Seriously. Luckily, everyone complied *evil laugh*.

Okay, let’s see pictures! First dinner at Carvery:

I’m fixing the veil on her. She’s laughing because she thought we gonna made her wear something embarrasing and there the veil was, the prettiest thing ever. Those were her words, I swear.

Mel fixing her sash. The sash was given to me by a friend (after a horribly failed attempt by myself to make one) and I glued ‘Bride’ on it with glitters on.

Yep. The bride is very happy.

Pat ordered these cutesy corsages from this lovely and talented lady :Saravella Sunday. KLS stands for Khai loves Sail, not Kimora Lee Simmons okay. All of us bridesmaids wore during the 2 days wedding celebration as well.

“Okay, now we eat!”

Dunno what was I talking about. Seem so serious like that LOL

Everybody grabbed a mustache! Group photo cos Fareiny is not going to join us at the bar. I so love this picture :D

Next stop, Kings Arms:

The Rio-themed deco

My photobooth props is a party hit! Everybody was having so much fun taking pictures with ‘em :D

Vina baked the Black Forest Penis Cake! It was scrumptious heh heh

And last but not least, Miss Party Planner herself, having a bit of bubbly (mind you, it’s Moet & Chandon)

 Still have to blog about the wedding preparations. Until next time, toodles!

Green but not a Grinch

It’s been a while, isn’t it?

What I wore to my cousin Alexis’s school dinner two weeks ago:

When you have cats, it’s inevitable to have them photobombing your pictures. Cats. Pfft.

What I’m wearing: Emerald Block Party – sereniandshentel; Vintage green polka dots top – thrifted; Mum’s faux pearls; F21 rings and bracelets; Elephant bracelet- Cambodia; Topshop bag; Uniqlo leggings and unbranded oxfords from Sg Wang.

I love my Uniqlo leggings. I bought two of those and I prefer it over skinny jeans. Okay I know I can’t fit into a skinny jeans. So cruel. And this green polkadots top is one of my greatest find during a thrifting spree.  I love green. It is one of my go-to colors for things.

So here is myself, my aunt (middle) and my sister (right) at the dinner. I look humongous. Heh.

Till then,

Much ♥

AV Love: You’re So Fine

The latest from Guba featuring Yuna. The type of song that make you reminisce on that first moment you saw that special someone.

What I feel when I listened to this? Love and that warm, pleasant feeling :)

It feels like December
The birds flew across my bedroom window
And the spiral staircase
That we used to hang around ’til 3 in the afternoon

I remember that day
The purple hoodie that you’re wearing
And the smile up on your face
Your hair was flowing in the air
As you were sitting by my side
You moved me with your tides

You’re so fine
And I wouldn’t do anything
To deny you
And I would die for
You..

Oh baby don’t despair
You’re not alone I’m always there
I wish I was the one who’s scared
Of the sickness that you bear
For as long as I could stay
I’ll be happy just to see you smile for another day

But you’re gone now
Oh so far gone now
Where the trees are green and cloudy grounds it seems
But my time will come
Oh so let it come
Where we’ll meet again
Until the end of time
