'surprise' by dyos

so i haven't really looked into shoes... i've been to the christian louboutain and jimmy choo shops in central to have a look at their 'wedding shoes'. gorgeous but also like $6000HKD per pair.

saw an ad on facebook- dyos (design your own shoes) and i love these white satin platform sling back peeptoes with a round bow called 'surprise' (they also come in turquoise). soooooo pretty! hopefully they won't cost an arm and leg...

invites are here!

wow its been ages since my last post... craziness- actually, life has been crazy. super busy at work and trying to get my paper done and my macbook decided to die on my (hard disk problems). had to go down to the po (sham shui po) and get an emergency hard disk replacement. lost everything =( no joke. sucky. thank god i saved my paper on my usb and only lost the 'recent file' with 800 words or so.

anyhow, invites are here! hurray! spent last night trying to handwrite the envelopes, as tradition calls for. did 4 and turns out they look butt ugly- i even made the effort and bought brown pens!!!!

now i think i'm going to do wrap around labels a la martha stewart (again!).

a damask envelope

i'm considering this damask one or the martha stewart original one with maybe a simple brown border?

our photos!!!

yay!!!! we finally got our engagement photos! after of just over a month of waiting (some issues with the post), we got our lovely photos! our photographer was such a doll and even printed some out for us and put them in a gorgeous white album. beautiful! got home after work and extra tutoring and immediately put them up on a server that my family uses to share pictures, and on facebook. hehehe good ol' facebook.

and we're back...

we got back on sunday night and so went straight back to work on the monday. urgh... super super tired. hence the lack of updates.

went out today for some yummy nha trang (vietnamese on wellington st.) and then frozen yoghurt (berrygood on graham st) and then to our lovely jewellers to pick out a ring for hkgroom! i think he found something today! hurray! didn't order it yet though as the lady who normally deals with us wasn't here today, so someone else entertained us for a while and promised to put aside that particular ring for us. very nice of them. i think we'll spend the next few days looking at men's rings online to see if there's something else we/he likes. also gotta think of phrases so we can engrave it onto our rings!

very exciting!
