BURBERRY ION- BLOGGER FIELD TRIP.

Okay so I was still, according to BagaholicBoy, ‘foaming at the mouth’ after receiving the news that we’re actually going to have a one in a million chance to meet Christopher Bailey-- And then we (Fash-E, RTT, BB and WottonCool girls) were told that we’re going to have a tour around the boutique, that made me foam even more! It was not 31 Rue Cambon but i imagined it to be as fantastic.

The motive of the tour was to pick an outfit so we could wear it on the actual event (live blogging at Burberry) and to do a fun ‘promotional shoot’ to promote the event. (Will blog about it on a separate post) That didn’t exactly happen but we had so much fun and I even more fun bragging about it. Hah. I mean, when will I ever get the chance to sit in their VIP room again no? Or when will I ever have the chance to try on ten different trench coats that’s worth 3k each (!) in an hour?! Since that awesomely-iest day, I’ve been dreaming about Burberry for almost a month.

All I need now is to attend a Burberry show in London next February and life would be a full circle moment. Ok, fat hope but I’ll keep on dreaming and writing to Oprah so she would send me there!

Fashion Bloggers were in full force for Bershka launch at ION. Party People, makeshift runway, beat boxing guy, spinning deejays, junk food and free flow booze, we had a blast!

UNIQLO, ION ORCHARD OFFICIAL OPENING.

Yesterday was the unveiling of UNIQLO’s FW 09 Collection and the introduction of faux leather called NEOLEATHER. You know, the one with my identical twin brother Sean O’pry. Yeah, that one.

Media Flair Communications, a public relation company invited OneSixtyNotepad and readers, to have the first look at the collection, even before it hits the stores in Japan! So, consider yourself lucky. Hah.

We were given a hundred dollars each to spend and I got myself a few tops and a wool blazer! For now, I won’t come to a press event that doesn’t entitle to a shopping spree! Kidding, or at least have fancy drinks and food like they do.

It was my first time to UNIQLO and I have to say, it provides the best service to its customers. (I’m not saying this because of the shopping spree) Although, I must say the repeated greetings is too much, the staff were really friendly and knowledgeable. What surprises me most was the quality of the products, really good despite having an affordable price tag.

UNIQLO Ion Orchard opens today! A specially designed Tote Bag from UNIQLO that will be given out to customers, who spend above $100 on a single receipt! This bag is not available for purchase on its own and is available while stocks last, specifically for customers of the ION Orchard store.

STRAITS TIMES URBAN, SG FASHION BLOGGERS.

Singapore 'Fashion Bloggers' were featured in Straits Times's Urban. An article which seems to be questioning the credibility of bloggers as writer. It wasn't direct, I'm sure most people get the same vibe.Well at least most of my friends does. Will i be the next blogger excluded from upcoming feature after saying this? Probably.

Don't make it sound as if Susie and Bryanboy didn't deserve what they got.Things don't just fall from the sky. We're not Heidi Montag, it doesn't work like that.

I don't think it's appropriate to change the question and replace it with another, it portrays and mislead people to have a different perception. Editing is fine, but to substitute with a different question, i think that's very PEOPLE magazine.If you'd ask me "excuse me, are you an expert?" of course i would say NO. If you asked what qualifies me as an expert, i would say streetsmarts but certainly not "I'M STREETSMARTS". Bad pulicity is still publicity. Oh well.

GARETH PUGH COCKTAIL RECEPTION, AUDI FASHION FESTIVAL.

Networking was petrifying. Not that i've never done that before but representing another party, i had to introduce the magazine and represent it well. The PR, Fiona was the greatest.At 3 in the morning, she managed to get us seat hours before the show! The best part, we don't have to fork out a dime and still manage to drag Nicole in with us. Nicole, i forgot to give you a hug!



Singapore Bloggers, Left to right: Laila of ROCK THE TREND, Xwen of FASH E, Nicole Then of CHERRY MAG and Carlos Keng of VOGUEITE. While Xwen had A for effort for trying to impress Gareth with the dress she ripped,(She went home to change,LOL) Laila whipped up the dress the night before the show! It reminds me of Ungaro Fall 07 clip-on buckle dress!Nicole was in a glittery butterfly top that she made hours before the show.She had to put that sequin one by one.Kidding! Oh, Carlos had all the attention in the tent.Press was interviewing him and all eyes were on him!



SG Bloggers with Ridhwan Sesapar, he was representing Mykromag with me on that day to cover the show.Hey bloggers, do you have any picture of Xwen NOT creeping from behind?? HAHA.
Brandon Seah, Angie & Carlos Keng.
My new BFF (and idol,for now), Dr.Giorgia Lee in Dolce & Gabbana S/S. Bestie, can i have a face lift? lip fillers?Okay i wont ask much, 12 session of Microdermabrasion and facial hair removal.Thats all.
