Hot sunny day on the field.

Interacting with lip gloss. Rofl.

I was asked by my friend, Chastity from GlitterStyleBuzz to cover the Venexiana Fashion Show from backstage. It was my first time covering a fashion show and none-the-less behind the scene. I was extremely excited and nervous at the same time.
It took me awhile to find the right entrance for the backstage pass.
I finally found it! It was inside a gigantic tent at the back of the Lincoln Center. There were so many buildings that it took me awhile to find the “back” of it.
Upon entering, I met these lovely ladies and they can’t find me on their Backstage Press List! After half an hour of trying to contact Chastity, the problem was resolved. My name was under Napoleon Perdis’ Press List.
All the models looks so pretty without makeup on. I can’t wait to see what they look like after makeup is use.
Everyone was hard at work getting all the models ready for the fashion show.
On one side, Napoleon Perdis Cosmetics makeup artists were working on the models’ makeup.
On the other side, hair stylists of Tela Design Studio by Philip Pelusi were working on the models’ hair.

This year their was an additional member to celebrate my birthday and minus a member. (Additional = Donald) (Minus = Sister)
Donald attempted to plan my birthday which was a fail since I ban his suggestions. I thought he knew me well enough to plan it but he didn’t. Donald, better luck next time. lol. Sister was missing because she was seriously sick. I missed her that night.
I decided to go back to B Flat in the Tribeca area. (Been there before for Chef Akiyama’s Pop-Up Gourmet event.) It’s a nice jazz lounge. If I don’t have class Monday and Wednesday night, I would come back to experience the live jazz.
We all started off the night with some alcohol. Wendy got Pineapple and Rum. Alina got a beer of some kind. Donald got a Lychee Martini.
I ordered also a Lychee Martini. It wasn’t strong but it was enough for me. My face was red by the end of the night.
Wendy holding the fries as if it was a trophy! lol. We had 2 orders of it. It was sooo good. Nice and hot and freshly made. Yum. I would go back just for it.

恭喜發財! May the year 2011 be a good rabbit year for all of you. (Everyone should be jumpy and cheerful like the bunny rabbits!) Hope you all will have a very healthy and safe year! 出入平安, 身體健康 and 龍馬精神! Same as what I said last year, May all your thoughts and wishes come true! 心想事成!

This year their is a little extra something I would need and that is, 學業進步. As some of you know, I recently started going to school again and would need to do well in it. Too all the students out there too, 學業進步!
This year I found more cute stamps from different Asian countries celebrating the coming of the rabbit year! Some of them are cute, while others looks interesting.

Now the formal part of the wedding was over, Nancy, Steven, and their friends started going wild. This was when the real party began!
Nancy is all ready for some drinking! (Alcohol or Apple Cider?)
Nancy attempting to find out exactly what the bottle of “stuff” is called. lol.
My favorite photo of the day. Steven grabbing Nancy’s boobs while she’s asking about the bottle of “stuff.” ROFL.
The perfect couple, the perfect bride and groom! They look sooooo cute together.
The girls showing off their wedding and engagement rings! Wish I have one to show off.
Showing off their rings some more with their husbands behind them.
Nancy and Steven’s friends went nuts for alcohol and shared many toasts of shot (unavoidable = including me). One final shot to the newly weds!

Really sorry for the super late post! I have been very busy these past few month.
PLEASE DO NOT COPY AND POST THESE PHOTOS ONTO FACEBOOK. I WILL BE POSTING THEM ALL ON FACEBOOK SHORTLY.
Now on to the special day for Nancy and Steven! They also had a luncheon in NJ to celebrate. (I didn’t take any pictures at the luncheon.)
Nancy and I started the day early at 8:45am at the hair salon for our hair and makeup.
Nancy’s hairdo looks pretty but the makeup was so so. The person who did our makeup did a badass job. We look better w/o the makeup then with; even I can do a better job then her.
I didn’t even want to look at myself with the makeup on. I look like I got a pair of swollen eye. As for my hair, it looks blah from the front (because my curls are too tight and too short) and great from the back.
While I get my horrible makeup done. Nancy and her mom left to go back to their place to change into the proper clothing. By the time I arrive at their house, Nancy and Steven were already getting into the car! Damn. I miss my chance to “play the groom and the best man.” >.<
In the car with Nancy and Steven going off to Flushing for the banquet. Nancy is wearing a traditional Chinese wedding dress.
Nancy and Steven’s wedding ring. Ain’t it beautiful? (Nancy got a very flowery Calgel design on her nails. Ain’t that beautiful too?)
Wish I had a wedding ring like hers. I only had my Heritage Ring from Swarovski Crystals. (I also had Calgel on my nails but with a much simpler design.)
The banquet was held at Mulan Restaurant. It was located on the 2nd floor of Queens Crossing on Main Street and 39th Avenue in downtown Flushing.
Bridesmaid Dress Shopping

My friend, Nancy recently told me that she is getting marry and would like me to be her bridesmaid. I was extremely surprised and in shock but I was very happy for her. Congratulations to her and Steve. Being that the wedding banquet is October 23rd, there is not a lot of time for us to shop for my bridesmaid dress. So on Sunday, Nancy and I went shopping for my bridesmaid dress @ David’s Bridal.
This was the first dress I tried and and I loved it! Love the ruffles on it. It was a tight fit, a tad too small.
This dress was pretty too. I like the color and design of it. You can not really see my stomach sticking out but I would like it more if it was a little shorter.
I like the color and shape of this dress but it don’t look so good on me. I can see my stomach sticking out and it needs more sequin at the bottom of the dress.
