Anyway we'd a busy busy weekend! no wonder Uncle Des a.k.a Mr. Keir (hence my blog soon-to-be-mrs.keir) was so worn out today that he look so sian at our trial make-up session...
Saturday's Mission: Get that man his Tux!!
One of the most difficult. You know how us ladies know exactly where to get what we need/want? If we want an evening gown we know where to shop, if we need that pair of heels, we know where to get them too.
And you know how men just have no idea where to get what they need?
Good grief after some research online, I've found a highly recommended tailor!
So tadah, there we went on Saturday to tailor-make his tux shirt!
Gotta wait till Uncle Des collect his shirt then can comment on the quality and all, but so far from what we've seen, it seems not too bad la..the Tux shirt was $75 already cheaper then off the racks outside and it's custom made to your measurement, with your choice of collar, pocket, cuffs yadda yadda..
we also tailor make a black shirt for uncle des that he can wear for work too..at $34 only! wooohoo that's the steal la, tailor make at a price lower then your usual G2000 and we get to choose materials or design we want for the inner collar and cuffs.
Shall post more pics once the shirt is done. Prob will post a little on this on the wedding blog too since it's related to sourcing for the groom's stuff hehez..
After spending like 1-2 hours there (1 hr is the waiting time loh) we proceeded to Ikea to get ideas for our Love nest (master bedroom).
It's our first time at Ikea as a couple and boy was it meaningful, we had our first meal together in ikea as a couple and discussing and getting ideas on how we want our love nest to be like!
So it's definitely something to blog about hehez...
Else i think i've more or less neglected de blog a little....haven't been updating with activities that frequently.
Sunday: Trial Make-up Day
It's trial make-up day and my BFF a.k.a JY suggested to have dim sum brunch before we pop over for the make up trial..
I saw mama at home and didn't realised she's working in the afternoon, hence brought her along for a hearty dim sum brunchiee!
Been a while since we or me took mama out...gona try to spend more time with her and bring her for good food more often.
It's kinda hard these days as most of her off days it's gona be her Grandson's time! ahaha
ok before you get goosebumps, just focus on the dim sum below la...
After the trial make-up we went to Colbar for site recce a little. Actually cos col bar was one of our photoshoot location..nice right? super old school vintage!! RETRO!
So here's showing you the power of a good make-up...
As you know i ain't blessed with pretty or big eyes so eye make-up has always been really important to me and that's how i use to rate if a make up artist is worth her salt.
This make-up artist assigned to us by the bridal studio is pretty good i must say. She somehow managed to balance my brows and also can see that she's really trying different methods on the left and right eye to figure out which method actually helps make the eyes look bigger!
Though uncle des say he think it's not much of a difference from my usual own make-up la..I take that as a compliment that my skill is as good as a PRO! lolx..
of cos she's alot more skillful with the blending and using the right amount of pastels to achieve the watery eye look...
Just take a look at the image above with one side done and the other undone....lolx....
since i'm looking pretty for the day, of cos must take couple more shots...
with the right angle, i can achieve the super kawaii look that most gers like to post in their FB.
Everyone can be a babe in Facebook loh...lolx...
