walk with us on this special journey..

Finally, I honoured my word towards the lady in the Nailz Korea shop in Sq 2 & booked a set of instant nails today (3 months after I first stepped into that shop) =P

Well, this set of instant nails is supposed to be used for the pre-wedding shoot in HK and the AD in Dec (hopefully I will not get sick of it by then – Yuan will kill me =P) and haha, it’s so girly hor! It’s also supposed to be versatile enough to be worn on other occasions so hopefully you will get to see me wear it quite often, haa..

This is a sneak preview of how it will look like – hopefully it will look at least 90% like the original! *keeping fingers crossed*

Pardon the lousy pic – I was taking a photo of the pic on the jap magazine!

[Update as of 2 Mar]

Collected the nails today – in less than 1 week! =) Hmm I would say that it is quite like the original, but I would have preferred the flowers to be smaller and more dainty..

All in all, however, I think I like their service & the lady who tended to me all this while! =D

Woo Hoo! Collected the dress today & I just tried it on!

I wonder if it’s my imagination – I think not – I think I gained some weight again! Urgh! Must be those lunches wif my naughty colleagues! >_<

He had been in search of white shoes since last week. Luckily we found it today, @ Pedro! We also saw quite a few pairs at Queensway – it’s harder to find in city areas! Check it out:

Me ‘in his shoes’

Nice..!

Settled my ROM shoes today, yay!

Should have gone to TANGS earlier since I know it’s my fav outlet for shoes – settled my choice in just 10 min =P

Was looking for something strappy & shiny to match the dress, and was quite happy to find it! Was intially worried that it’s not high enuff until I got home and realised that it’s actually higher than all of my shoes.. keke. Here it is:

Nice mah?

Wahaha, how can a hand bouquet be harder to decide on than the dress..? (that’s the reality, in fact =P)

Not hard to explain why – it’s a straightforward situation of having a choice vs. having no choice. I decided on the dress in less than 2 hours ‘coz there was only that rack to choose from; I’m taking weeks to decide on the bouquet ‘coz I’ve got so much time & so many choices! Haa!

I need your vote - conventional or the ball??? Some feedback so far:

Yuan: Ball – Trying to be funny
Florist – Based on my dress (I sent her the pic), conventional is more suitable (sob)
Me – I like the ball ‘coz it’s unique! But I’m also worried that it may not go wif the dress..
Ann – All types would be suitable! Choose the type you like.

OK.. pics below (this is not the final one as it will be customised to our colour scheme, but you get the idea)

  vs. 

Finally, after waiting sooooo long, the day had come for me to choose the gown. Yay!

I found it a rather awkward experience (especially for the first 1/2 hour) ‘coz there would be sooo many pairs of eyes looking at you, commenting whether it’s nice/not so nice, suitable for you or not.. >_<

You would probably also require the girl to help you zip up/tie the criss-cross thingy behind you so it can be rather awkward. No way to zip it up yourself (not to mention tying the criss-cross thing) ’coz the thing is damn low lor.. below your waist.. >_<

Yuan said I eliminated 1/2 of the selection straightaway by insisting on a long gown. Am relieved that I managed to find a suitable one from that 1/2, and it was not a bad choice at all. I like it! Won’t show you the actual thing but will show you the one I like second best, ok? I actually like it alot ‘coz it’s fitting at the waist but we didn’t choose it in the end ‘coz it looks too much like a bridal gown.. =P

Check it out..

The yellow one at the back is also quite suitable and cheery but it’s empire cut and flares out at the waist. There’s a danger of me looking short and fat haha, so..

I also realised that when I don’t feel at ease, I keep making this silly face. 90% of the pics I took at the studio had this funny face. Urgh!

Haa ya, both Mummy & Yuan have been dressed, except me!

Mine will come soon, next week on 6 Aug, yay yay yay!

Bought Mum this very pleasant violet top with white jeans which, in Ann’s own words, is “her most trendy top” =) Am excited about the impending wedding but moods are slightly dampened by work – I hate presentations and one’s coming up! Darn!
