A Bridesmaid In Town

It's officially 5 months to go before the big day.If we were to be in the U.S.,it would be a delightful Spring wedding,or,an enchanting Fall wedding if we were to be in Down Under.

Everyone else was glowing about my wedding since the day I got engaged.And I was supposed to be all excited about choosing my bridesmaids,picking a wedding planner,photographer and a truly unique theme.But all I wanted to do was just to lie down and took a big long nap.I felt like a deadbeat bride until recently.

I managed to grab hold of a talented photographer for the upcoming wedding with some help from Pear. The door gifts problem is still unresolved but comforting ideas were given by both Yaya and Pear. I still have zero clue on who's the lucky bridal makeup artist to be hired for my ceremonies due to last minute changes.And I found the perfect designer and planner for my wedding by chance,while going on a date with Sweetie Pie just a few months ago.

From the descriptions above,I bet you can imagine what a horribly messed up last minute bride-to-be I am right now.Without some luck and support from my peeps,not even a single preparation might be done yet by now.Talking bout being deadbeat!

Since I've managed to pull myself together and focused on the preparations,I've too,chosen the perfect 2 bridesmaids,each for a ceremony.And they are,none other than 2 of my besties,Ms Pear and Ms Hanna. The lovely bubbly Pear,you folks have known her through my previous blog posts.So it's time for a quick introduction on the lanky beautiful Hanna.

Hanna has existed in this teeny little place in my heart since high school and it didn't stop there.We were uni/campus mates in UNITEN too,until I decided to leave education behind and reached for more glamorous life. Dasar tak sedar diri :P Well,even after I left UNITEN,Hanna and I remained close and updated with each other's miserable life.We stopped seeing each other after she selfishly decided to live and work in Miri,where she grew up.Bloody Hanna! =E Haha,kidding Sweetheart! =D I guess that was her punishment for me for leaving her in UNITEN all alone with her accounting books.

Anyway,Hanna came down to KL last weekend for her sister's convocation ceremony.So I took that chance to make an appointment with her.Afterall,it had almost been a year since I last saw her.

As a sushi lover to another sushi lover,Pear made the initiative to introduce me to Sushi Zanmai,so I was obliged to pass the information to another sushi lover,Hanna.I was glad and relieved that she loved the food at Sushi Zanmai.Even if she didn't,she'd just hafta fake it coz lunch at Sushi Zanmai was on me!Haha =D


After lunch,it was time to get down to some serious business,a visit to the bridal boutique!It has always been a bridesmaid's duty to tag along for wedding stuffs shopping,so Hanna was more than happy to do it for me.We had an appointment with my chosen designer and planner for the wedding.It was with the talented,most hilarious and young designer/boutique owner,Oscar Jeprey. Sweetie Pie and I met him once at his boutique months ago and we fell in love with him instantly.He's not just talented,but he's also friendly,crazy down to earth and with a great sense of humor.Meetings with him were just like having a cup of coffee at Starbucks with an old friend,except there were no cups of coffee involved at his boutique.Perhaps I should request for Starbucks coffee the next time I come to visit at his boutique :P 

It was a long afternoon at Oscar's boutique at Maju Junction. After my wishes had been granted through Oscar's designs,it was measurement time.It was nothing like I've experienced before.I swear both Hanna and I were like striking poses in front of the big mirror!There was a hands-at-the-hips pose and flaunt-1-of-your-legs pose,with a ribbon tied around our waist.Bizarre but Oscar totally took the measurements with a slight of flair ;)

Hanna being measured.She confidently said that her measurements are gonna be different in 2-3 more months coz she's working her ass off to lose weight before my wedding.Gotta love that confidence ;D
I was done striking poses for Oscar.
Oooh,gotta love that handsome designer's pose ;D (He better give me some great hell of discounts for the compliments)

After saying goodbye to Oscar,we headed to Pavilion to meet up with the rest of the Kardashian sisters. And there they were,eating dessert at Snowflake.

Since the sisters haven't been to Pavilion for quite some time,both and I escorted them to outlets they wanted to visit including the newly opened Sephora. You can never separate girls from makeup ;D


I've lost track of time when hanging out with the ladies.When it was about 9pm,I had to say goodbye to them coz I have an early flight the next day.Mission was accomplished but the next time I'll get to see Hanna again is a couple of days before my wedding date :'( Well,I just hope she'll remember to book her flight to KL for the wedding or I'll be bridesmaid-less on my reception day.

Well,I have a HUGE important interview to attend in another 2days and I'm already sick to my stomach.In order to bring my A game to the interview,I better start preparing myself now.

I hope you folks will have a good week.Will be updating the blog soon.Ciao! =D
