Lets Cruze....!

Chevrolet Cruze
Gotta love this car!
I was never a fan of Chevy for some personal reason.
But bila they introduced this design....my heart just tergolek...hehe!


Nih Syed la punye kije duk ckp psl this car.
I was leaning towards more to Japanese type cars but thn bila gi tgk and thn test drive....(plus the fact tht for a 1.8cc car, harga dia considerably murah)...teruih suka :)

We especially love the interior!
Sgt mcm cockpit! 
Berangan lar jap mcm bwk kapalterbang kn...hehe


The interior looks exactly like this, cuma the driver's side is on the other side la.
Yg penting....seat utk passenger blkg tu is spacious and comfy.
Al-maklum la....ahlil keluarga ku sume sihat2 dan tinggi2 belaka hendaknye.

Can't wait for it :)

Wedding Shoes - Part II

      Finally, here they are.....my wedding shoes :). 
I had ordered 2 of it...satu off-white and the other one is a dark gold.

Fabric: Sateen with a diamante buckle.
Nih akan dipakai masa hari Nikah and masa majlis bertandang. I had decided utk just tempah 1 je for both occasion coz both events punye baju are white but bj nikah is white and gold.....bj bertandang lak is white and turqoise. As i don't actually need 2 white heels tuh yg tempah 1 je :).




Fabric: Shantung Silk
Nih utk my side of the reception. My Wedding dress is in gold...but since aku tak ingat what tone of gold it is (bj still kat butik lg :P), so we had decided utk amik tone yg gelap ckit....and it was the perfect choice! Its totally gorgeous. Aku saje je tempah yg plain without any details coz every add-ons kena lar tmbh duit. I saw in one of the blogs, this lady beli kasut plain yg murah2 je....and thn she DIY it with blings2....simple but yet looks very exclusive. So td br beli diamantes....soon i'll start my lil "artwork" la :). Any ideas??

"Berkat" Pengantin - Part II


      Antara benda yg mula2 skali yg kitaorg pikir after I got engaged was ape nk bg pd tetamu as "berkat" pengantin?? Bukan la benda yg senang ok nk decide....kena byk wat observation, scouting, googling....hehe. If budget besar, senang je kijenye. Just bg kat wedding planner je pikir sume tuh. As for me, i will try to find something yg affordable but yet looks expensive ;).


      Dulu masa abg aku kawin, we had went all the way to Jakarta to get the kipas tgn and bakul telur. Ikutkn mmg la murah bt thn bila cmpur cost flight and all....lebih kurang je if u get it from here. In my earlier post, i did mentioned about this seramic thingy yg kitaorg nk beli from Kuala Kangsar. Aku ingat nk gi dh ujung bulan June nih to order...bt thn a couple of weeks ago, makcik aku dtg from JB. So dia and my mom gi lar tgk2 brg kat Nilai 3. Aku tak ikut coz sibuk gi ukur bj wedding ;). Anyway, bila mlm tuh aku blk....they had bought some samples for me to chose/look/consider sebagai "berkat". Basically kitaorg nk cr 2 type la....one for the VIPs and satu lg tuh utk sume guests.

     To me...ikutlah kemampuan masing. You don't have to follow what's the in-trend currently. Aku lebih suka kalo somthg yg aku bg tuh, org blh remember tht it was from MY wedding :). And the most important factor of all tht u should always consider is....your BUDGET!! Kalo ade org sponsor, pun ok gak...haha! Bertuah dowh! Anyway, here are the stuff yg my mom and aunt beli utk tunjuk to me:


Butterfly box : sgt sweet....would be a good idea kalo nk letak stuff 
mcm chocs or candies for the lil' ones. 



Birds Nest : this is soooo cute! Blh ltk apape la...bt ideally would be telur la. 
I like this one....but kalo beli byk cam over my budget lak :P



Porcelain mini mug : from Romantika. Sweet and cute! hehe...same concept if i were to get tht seramic thingy from K.Kangsar. It comes with the box and all. If nk smthg extra blh ltk sweets ke ape ke in the mug kn? Tmbh ribbon ckit.....taa-daa :)






Bekas cincin kaca (dunno ape nama nih ;P): Uuuuu....ini sgt cantik. I like! You would not believe the price :). Kalo kat KL, konpem dh berbelas RM. Bt still a lil' over my budget :(. Xde sape nk sponsor kew?




      Nk dipendekkan citer nye....my aunt decided nk sponsor gifts utk VIPs! Yeay!! Lebih kurang dlm 80 org. Alhamdulillah....rezeki....kecil tapak tgn, stadium bkt jalil hamba tadahkn :)....hehe! So she selected a couple of the above items and bought it the next day. Then, another of my aunt call mlm tuh and offer utk wat candy as part of the VIP punye gifts....huhu, u lucky ppl! Candy dia mmg mantapsss!! And i had also pick one of this items as my "berkat" :)....yg mane? haha....tungguuuuuuu! So tht's one of the big items crossed from my to-do wedding list. 

      Anyway, again.....at the end of the day, yg kena live with the decision made adelah kita sndr. I'm happy with mine :)

Akhirnye....wedding shoesssss!!

      Finally....dpt gak cr tmpt yg blh wedding shoes according to my size. Maybe ade yg duk wondering....wht's the fuss?? Well, mainly coz i wear a size 11 heels. Yup, u saw it right.....saiz 11 weh! hehe...

      Dh le nk cr heels biasa for my size nih pun teramatlah susahnye.....just imagine kalo nk wat wedding shoes?? Mau menangis cr. Actually sblm nih dh jumpe a couple of places yg blh wat custom made heels....but the price would start from RM450 and above. Even to a point it would cost me RM950 per pair....and i need 2 pairs at least!!

      The bridal boutique yg aku sewa bj tuh xde kasut saiz 11...tuh yg terpaksa duk hunt for it. After many weeks of searching high and low for it....i came across this ad dlm majalah pengantin about a place yg jd wholesaler utk butik2 pengantin nih....pengantinmelayu.com nama kedai tuh. Its located at Ampang Waterfront. So last weekend, me and Syed pi la drive tuh the location....without knowing yg rupenye Ampang Waterfront nih ade 3 separate building. But luckily dlm website kedai tuh ade bg some landmark utk senang cr.

      So drove all the way to ampang. Duk weave in and out of the Ampang Waterfront areas until we had found it. Basically its at the 3rd phase of the Ampang Waterfront. Atas restoran Anis Sup Utara. So discuss punye discuss.....aku tempah 2 psg with diifferent design. The 1st pair tuh wat colour off-white with diamante buckle. This to be worn masa nikah and masa majlis bertandang. Both majlis bj warna off-white...yg lain nye.....masa nikah is off-white dgn gold, and ms bertandang nnt pakai bj off-white dgn turqoise details. The other pair tuh amik warna gold yg gelap ckit, coz bj for my side punye reception is gold, but x ingat gold camner. So decided utk amik kaler yg gelap ckit so x nmpk clashing sgt apape pun....material shantung silk. I didn't want to put any details on it coz aku nk design sndr ( hahaha....abis la kasut tuh!!). Saw it in a few blogs, where they would buy plain satin shoes and thn beli diamante and design it as you see fit :). hehe...

      The shoes akan siap in a week or 2. Damaged done? Tak sampai RM200 pun. Hopefully its worth it la. Besides kasut, kedai tuh supply set tanjak and samping at a very cheap price. But takde la songket Terenggani kn....itu riban2 ye. Nih just Songket pakistan je...so, sgt murah la.Also ade bj pengantin, set bantal nikah etc....reasonably priced.
