Rami Kadi Red, Wedding Gowns Collection for Fall 2014 Part Two

Crazy Red.
My youth was filled with black and grey and I only started to know how to appreciate red in my late 20's, I always thought it's an age thing - wear black and grey to tell the adults that we have grown up, and wear reds to prolong our youth. :)

Picture source: The Wedding Notebook.

Again, this set of bridal outfits is presented by designer Rami Kadi, look at those details!

U-neck, lace top and fish tail back...

I personally love the little red dress very much, and the choice of that pair of nude/gold heels to go with this little red dress is flawless, 4" heels hey. :)

Deep V at the back whilst covering the collar bones at the front. Gorgeous!

The pretty ordinary piece for people who'd love simplicity - big red bow beneath the tube...

And last but not least, the use of those lace... I could imagine how light is this gonna be.

Hope you have fun viewing. :)

Repurpose: Bridal Veil in Malaysia

A friend called up for an urgent help. Needed a bridal veil for her pre-wedding photography session and she couldn't find a suitable wedding veil in time.

She sent me a picture of her wearing her wedding gown, and a picture of a wedding veil that she would like to have. I told her instead of trying to find one, it might be easier for her to DIY one.

So off I went and hunt for something with WHITE fabric flowers, and boy was it hard to find something totally WHITE? You bet. It's easy to find stuff with creamy colors, it's extremely challenging to source something totally white, indeed.

So finally I've found a hair clip with 2 huge white fabric flowers. Then I remember the supplier I have sourced my hair-clips and ribbons from have gave me some loose items as gift and there were two tiny flowers in white with "blings' at the center. I thought it would be perfect to put them all together.

Two fabric flowers were glued onto the hair clip:

The flower was composed by collecting and gathering fabric with glue, of which I don't quite prefer. I tore them off from the hair clip, and spread opened the fabric, sew with with thread, then gather them again. It's tricky to gather such thin and low density fabric, I am glad it turned out right after a couple of attempts.

The friend bought a veil, and we ditched the original focal piece of that veil, took only the veil itself. Because we have 2 flowers right now, she wanted one in white pearls and another with blue pearls. I thought it'd be great if she could choose which flower to wear during photoshooting, so instead of sewing the fabric flower onto the veil, I made it into hair clip, so she could swap.

Here's the fabric flower featuring white swarovski crystal pearls and the default blings:

Took a photo of them both before they are off to serve their new owner:

Wearing it as hair clip instead of a veil on my little one, too cute, isn't she? :)

Hope things turned out right on her photoshootings, will post again once I have her pre-wedding photos featuring these fabric flowers. :)

Malaysia Handmade: Butterfly Jewelry Hair Clip with No-slip Grip

Name: Butterfly Jewelry Hair Clip with No-slip Grip.

I try to make my little one a little something every month, and this month I decided to make something slightly bigger, and something colorful. I hardly make anything colorful in my line of designs, so this new try is pretty exciting.

So here it is. It's a butterfly, with white, blur, dark green gold and pink Swarovski Crystal Pearl beads, featuring pink CZ Stones and Green CZ Stone. I don't have Grosgrain blue ribbons, only satins; and a piece of 4.5" of hot pink grosgrain ribbons.

Her Dad's comment was this does looks like something suitable for ladies at all age...

Can you imagine it on a toddler, a teenager or even a bride's head?

Something old, something new;
Something borrowed, something blue;
And a silver sixpence in her shoes.

Do you think my little daughter would wear this for a really long time? All the way til on the day she gets married? I am thinking too far long, heh. I wonder if all mothers does that.

A side view of it the butterfly:

In my hand. I didn't notice those glues on the wings until I was processing these photos for a blog post. So silly. I only pay attentions onto those wires, though those glues can be easily removed. I shall examine all my pieces before I publish them in the future, I can't stand this kinda silly flaws, it's poking my eyes now. LOL.

And this is my precious little one. She crawled over and pecked on my cheek for the very, very first time this morning. Heh. Growing up too fast. Too fast.

Hope you had fun viewing my handmade little jewelry hairclip, I look forward in creating something again soon!
