The Back-to-School look never gets old. I guess I'm a hippie kind of girl... the pebbled leather is calling out to me!

I haven't bought a nice bag in a long time because I've been saving up for the wedding... Would probably wait till my 13th month bonus comes in. Feels so broke. -_-
Chosen my wedding invites! Red for 男方 and pink for 女方 at T Dragon, the appointed supplier for our venue - M Hotel.



The designs mostly were super blah and traditional, and I seriously don't really wanna top-up for other invitation designs because I know people will throw these away and use as shitting paper or something... but THIS! This isn't bad at all, and I like it. It's HUAT enough for the older generation to like it, but not TOO orbiang. I like the little birds and the modern-looking fonts.

Was thinking of printing inserts at T&T over at JB side but hubs thought that it's too troublesome and we should just do it at T-Dragon. I'm okay I guess, think it's pretty inconvenient to head to JB as well, considering that we are car-less. Will need to work out the invitations required and place order for the inserts soon!






Another thing down! We'll be engaging Yumetori for my wedding's live band. :) Met Ariel over Starbucks and she was a really sweet gal. She was pretty surprised that I found them, considering that they haven't set up their website and stuffs yet, haha! The Power of Google yo. She has also sung for other bands like A Little Dream, and she has a really nice voice. I'm getting a 3-pc band with her as the vocalist, a keyboardist and a guitarist, and will be engaging their emcee service as well. They'll drop by the place to check out the sound system and everything during our food-tasting session sometime in October. :)


Time to work out the song list!


Having a live band is pretty important to us, because music works wonders for creating the ambiance of love... and we're both simply music lovers. Hope our guests enjoy it!

I seriously DO think that this is the best part of pre-wedding preps - picking out your wedding dress! :D Well, I never really had a "dream wedding dress" per se, but I do have a preference for tulle which was a pretty simple criteria.

At about 2pm, we arrived at my bridal studio and I told Pei Wen (who is my coordinator btw) what kind of gowns I liked. Angela and Joey came along, and I don't think I would know what to do without them! At least they're able to give more constructive feedback than the hubs who only says stuff like "OK" and "Nice!" and "Not bad!". D: But anyways it was the most enjoyable experience.

Think I tried about 10 rounds of wedding gowns, and I finally decided on this one!


I majorly photoshopped my arm but didn't do a very good job... Too lazy to perfect it. Time to lose some flab. -_- I also had this really kooky smile for some reason. How come no one told me I was smiling stupidly?! Must be the lace. I love the lace details at the bottom of the skirt. The skirt was pretty bling with sequins(?) or something in the under-lying layer of tulle. In the daytime, the bling will be pretty and understated. At night, when spotlight is cast on meh, the sequins will catch the light and I WILL BE A SUPER DA-BLING BRIDE! :D Shiny is good, hiak hiak.

Okay and so I picked this.

I was more worried about the selection of evening gowns... they either have too much details (somehow other girls look good in detailed gowns but I will look like a getai singer!), or they look like D&D dresses (not too bad either, if you're going for simple and classy)... when I didn't know what to do with myself, my dear coordinator brought out this new gown which I think will be in the September collection. OH MY HEART!


Fleshy girls can wear chio gowns too ok. They have other chio gowns but personally I feel this one beats the rest hands down. I like the uniqueness of the colour, the chocolate-coloured overlay on the skirt, the A-line neckline, and the motif-ish waist part, whatever that's called. It's perfect. Okay, I admit that both my wedding and evening gowns look essentially the same but WHAT THE HECK I just prefer puffy gowns to hide my huge ass - makes me feel more confident too. The skirt is actually also glittery from underneath (can't see from the picture though), so I will be DA-BLING! again for my second march-in!!! Hiaks.

I feel like a princess - albeit a size 14 one. :D

Woke up bright and supaaaaa early today for the National Runway Cycling & Skating event at Paya Lebar Airbase (like supaaaa near my house), which coincides with Father's Day this year. I think I reached the place at around 7am+? Was told to drop off at the Army Museum and head to some room. It's like a damn cool place with ginormous airplane models. :D

Unfortunately I have no idea how to cycle at the ripe old age of 27 so I wasn't a participant... just happened to be deployed for work. Pretty nice to see families hanging out and having 'us' time at our event. :D


And then I camwhored while no one's looking.

Happy Father's Day to my dad, my dad-in-law, my god-dad and all other dads in the world. :D
