It is now redeemable at all Hello stores till 30th Nov! What are you waiting for?!
…I don’t really know what the title means, but it keeps appearing on blog posts about Nuffnang Blog Awards. Anyone care to explain?
A part of me felt like I’d let you guys down. Hoping that I could present to all of you (who had ardently took part in the voting process like it’s your own competition) something in return of your effort, but no – I didn’t make it.
At best, it is just THANK YOU, THANK YOU & THANK YOU. Thanks to all of you who believed in me and voted religiously, though you’d most probably cursed me for wasting a whole lot of your time clicking away.
I must say that I was pleasantly taken aback by Xiaxue‘s very, very gracious deed of “sharing” the Best Original Blog Design award with me. I swore my eyes dilated with delight when I heard my name being mentioned. I can’t even remember what exactly she was saying. All I knew was, I kept nodding and mouthing “THANK YOU! THANK YOU! THANK YOU!” to her.
Awesome trophies – for me not.
Nonetheless, I, or should I say – WE, managed to bagged a whooping $5K with that zombie flick of ours.
Definitely, it wouldn’t have made possible without the amazing crew behind it, so I’d thought that this second version of the above photograph deemed better:
Truth be told, though logically $5000 was a lot more “worth it” than a glass memento, I would rather give the money up for the title. It’s like an honorary thing, you know?
So I’ve made my thank-you speech, where do I begin to blog about the event?
Right, my two outfits!
Didn’t realise some of you were waiting for it till my blogger friends nudged me for the blog post on my outfits. So here you go!
Outfit #1: The Willy Wonka-inspired look.
Tophat, checked.
Trenchcoat, checked.
Bowtie, checked.
Walking(?) stick, checked.
Not a exact replica, but you can read how I came about this idea over here.
Btw, is that considered a trenchcoat? I’m not too sure, but you wouldn’t believe me if I were to tell you that I bought it at the Salvation Army thrift shop. $21 after an unexpected 30% discount on the already cut-rate price.
However, it didn’t exactly came like that though. The bottom of the coat was tailored by my fashion designer friend, Suzsu!
Here’s a clearer view of the bottom hemp:
And of cos, the awesome disco stick that I DIY-ed.
Once again, you would not believe that the metal pole was actually the handle of a mop – $3.90. But that discoball is not self made lah! It happened to be lying around in my room and I figured that it would come to good use rather than collecting dust at a corner.
So, in the metal pole goes. *does a suggestive moan* And voila! My very own disco stick!
Outfit #2: The “normal” black-tie event look.
Thank you very much, I love my “gravity-defying hair” (quoted from Fashion Nation!) 
It was rather painful on the wallet though. The inner black shirt (outfit#1) from Top Man, the shoes from Pedro & the top hat from 4skin are all new!
And also, the new iris-enlarging contact lenses. Struggled initially cos it was a good five or six years ago when I last put contacts on. But all the time & effort proved to be worth it when my eyes looked like I was perpetually liquifying them.
Okay, I’m actually done with the editing of the rest of the photos taken during the event. But I think I shan’t flood them here at one go. More often than not, you will simply scroll all the way down to look at the photos and skipped whatever I’ve written.
I KNOW COS I DO THAT TOO.
So, UH-AH. Thou shalt read over and over again until I post up the photos in the next entry!!!
