At Another Blog

Nowadays, I'm all about wedding stuff. This blog might be left behind a little...or more...  If you don't see me updating here, it's probably because I'm at my wedding blog.

If you feel like reading my rants and rambling about getting hitched, feel free to head on to  

The Bride-To-Be Quest. 

Ok.. I'll try not to rant too much in there. Haha. Nahh... I'm just basically documenting my search and preparations for the wedding.

*post not related to blog theme*

Truth is, I'm not sure if I can update as often anymore. As much as I don't wanna say this year will be a challenging year for me, I cannot help but think it will be. Just like everyone else who has gone through planning a wedding, now it's my turn to get all stressed up and worried. Well, not that I am now. We still have many months to go but I try not to be complacent as I'm aware lots of couples will make early reservations to avoid disappointment. Boy...how I want to make the reservations as early as possible. -_- But.... The fiance has decided to take on an overseas job offer. At first, I also thought "WTH? Of all the year....!" But when he explained to me the purpose, I just wanna be the fiancee who supports him. Of course I may not like it, but some things I just have to believe in.

So yeah...we will be planning this wedding long-distance. That's the challenging part. For now, we have the church and reception venues in mind. But we still haven't done any reservations as we're still expecting the confirmed date. Of course we do have the proposed date but it's still up to the priest to confirm it. We will only be able to attend the pre-wedding course in June. Dear God... please help us...

Busy bee me..

Once again, I'm back in the busy bee phase. It's crazy. My line of work hasn't got anything to do with style or fashion. So I'm currently in the uninspired state due to too much work task to be done. This is as far as I can do in terms of updating..

First day style inspirations..

 Love the skirt. Also the whole look...and I want that bag in camel!

 Now this look is something I wanna try.

This is so me. Just have to find the right shorts.

I so want to look for a pair of flattering long pants.

How I Spent My Christmas..

It was a nice and simple Christmas celebration these past couple of days. Being Catholics, it's only natural for my family and I to attend Mass at church for both Christmas Eve and Christmas day.

We arrived one hour before the Mass began on Christmas Eve but the church was already packed. We had to sit outside and it's only by the grace of God that it did not rain. One of the miracles of Christmas.

After the Mass ended, a charity bazaar was held at the nearby parish hall. That's why you see me carrying a few plastic bags in this picture. I bought the blue maxi dress for my engagement day but in the end, decided not to wear it cos the colour wasn't the type of blue that I wanted. Guess it was quite a hurried purchase. So I just wore it that night and paired it with a white short-sleeves cardigan. Not exactly an evening colour but heck, I figured when am I gonna wear it.

So this is what I wore on Christmas day. Although I had the inspirations, deep in my mind I knew it would turn out different than the inspirations. Cos I was aiming for a dress with the right fit first and the cut, second. 

 

After Mass, we headed on to our cousins' places for Christmas open house. 

 My family and I did the gift exchange in the evening after a simple Christmas dinner. It's always fun to see what everybody got.

But of course, we'll never forget the true meaning of Christmas.. :)

Hope you guys had a blessed and wonderful Christmas!

Have a blessed Christmas everyone!

Evening Dresses

Now that I’m engaged, it’s time to gather some inspirations for the quintessential evening dresses from Goddiva. If you ask me, yes! Of course I’m excited. I can’t believe I’ve passed the first stage towards building our lives together. Although the big W is still quite many months away, I think it’s just a good time for me to start doing my search.

Personally, I’m always fascinated by Grecian inspired dress. I think with the right hair, makeup and accessories, anyone can look divine in it.

I love this Grecian Maxi Dress in beige. You can always put on a pair of dangling earrings for an added elegance. 

This mint one-shoulder dress has such refreshing colour for a daytime wedding reception. A pair of dangling earrings and beautiful bracelets can make an otherwise simple dress, classy. 

Or I can always go for the ever classic strapless evening dress similar to the one worn at the Royal Wedding.

 

I mean let’s face it. Women are spoilt with choices of evening dresses. We just have to look for one that has the right fit, colour, embellishment and most importantly within our budget.

I can’t wait to have mine.
