Leave Plan for 2010 (first half)
Just awhile ago, I received a forwarded email in the office. Something i check during the start of every day to make the first half an hour seem so interesting..
Nope its not porn (sorry don't have picture to show..its not that i get such forwarded mails)
or
disfigured human pictures that asks you to donate to unknown charitable funds (the saddest part of forwarded emails)
or
how to get-rich-quick schemes. (no interest whatsoever)
What caught my eyes was this.....
You can never find a better leave plan in year 2010!
I guess some forwarded emails can be quite informative..

Katrina is more happy to worked with Ranbir
Katrina Kaif is one such lucky person, who right from the beginning of her career had the opportunity to work with the biggest stars of Bollywood like Amitabh Bachchan in BOOM, Salman Khan in MAINE PYAAR KYUN KIYA & YUVVRAAJ, Anil Kapoor in HUMKO DEEWANA KAR GAYE, Govinda in PARTNER, Saif Ali Khan in RACE and with Akshay Kumar she gave back-to-back superhit films. No doubt today she is touted as most sought after lady of tinsel town.

Mister Potato Event at the Mist
Last Saturday, I found myself at 630pm at a nightclub called "The Mist".
Strangely as it seems, I do enjoy clubbing, but definitely not crazy enough to come THAT early to have a good time.
Neither was I early to ensure that I wouldn't have any trouble of getting a table inside to put my liquor.
Because neither of that was the case.
I was at the Mist not to go clubbing but to be part of a Mister Potato Campaign Event
that was happening there which specially invited bloggers and other media frenzy's that were all waiting outside to get in.
Though, this time I did not go as a blogger since my blog has practically stopped for the past few months, I was just invited by a close friend of mine to oh well..makan makan and minum minum since I had nothing to do over the weekend in KL.
But above all, I came here because I have never came to this nightclub before which I have heard quite alot of good things about it in the past all the way from Penang.
Upon entering, I am given a bag of Mister Potato Bag which has a lot of junk food which I don't really eat,
and a straw hat that I could probably use it when I'm up in the hills of Cameron Highland Hills plucking tea leaves in the future.
If you're wondering what is the straw hat for, well..the theme for the night was a Mexican theme and i'm quite happy this time around that at least they try to equip us so that all of us would rather be involved with part of theme.
As you have seen in the past, I suck in dressing up for parties with theme's and end up as a social outcast throughout the party. This wasn't the case this time around as everyone came pretty casual.
While of course, there were the die hards that really dressed up to the Mexican theme.
Let me show you what I mean by Die-HARDS!!
This is one of the things I enjoy about this campaigns, people really take the effort to dress up to the theme, something that we wouldn't really expect from many unsporting Malaysians like myself.
But down here, everything goes. Apparently, they do get something for dressing up like that which I will share with you later.
Inside the Mist, you would of course expect that you would be welcomed at the entrance with well..Mist?
Nope..That did not happen.
However, inside the Mist practically looks like this. A nice great dance floor in front of a small stage where the DJ's roll out their stuff.
VIP area is at the top
The Bar on ground floor.
Upstairs has a VIP area for the specially gifted people.
Leather Seats that is only catered to VIP's who are more gifted than normal gifted people.
This is how it looks like from the top.
And here's the food that awaits us which is of course something you don't get on a normal clubbing weekend.
Coming back to whats happening on the floor.
With all the Mexican Straw Hats being worn, the party got started. Sometimes if you looked closely, you might think that it was a convention for Cameron Highlands vegetable Farmers. Elite Farmers to say the least, all having a good time with free drinks and food.
Here's a picture of how a group of farmers rushing for free things.
Then there was the part of why some of them came dressed up as Mexicans because there was a well-dressed competition with the winner earning himself a cool RM5,000.
That's alot for well...just dressing up as a Mexican rather than plucking leaves in Cameron Highlands which you can never ever see that kind of figure for the next few years compared to one night. Unless of course those leaves are not tea leaves and I don't really want to know what they are....
Then there was also the competition of best Mexican Dancer with Mister Potato leading how the dance should be imitated after him.
Winner also earns himself a cool RM5K while of course 2nd and 3rd will earn something respectively. Enough to buy themselves a blackberry and still have enough cash to pay for their phone bills for the next year or two.
All in all, I really had a great time. Experienced what the club was like and I must say, it looks great. I guess if I had not attended this event, I wouldn't have taken the time to write a post but I must since I took some pictures which I might as well share it with you guys!! Hope you enjoyed the post!

Sweets for my feet - Part 3: Wedges
Last shoe post, I wrote that Laduree had collaborated with Christian Louboutin to design some limited edition Laduree/Christian Louboutin boxes (and macarons). Imagine my surprise and excitement when I discovered that the ever-so-wonderful & gorgeous Nathalie of Dress Your Days with Dreams sent me an actual box all of my own!!! Mille merci Nathalie!!!
Stella McCartney patent, wood & metal wedges (left) and Yves Saint Laurent Dada semi-wedges in Platino (right) - these were my wedding shoes, and I have used them countless times since then.
Laduree box beautifully wrapped up...
Chloe brown Silverado wedges (left - the heel is actually sculptured narrow/thin from the back), Dries Van Noten patent grey sneaker wedges (right)
Christian Louboutin/Laduree box - Oh so cute and 'purdy'!
Gamins swirly colourful wedges (I fell in love with the candy-colour swirly pattern on the sculptured heel) and Brazilian pink suede lucite wedges (the heel is almost half an inch narrow)

Pre-Fall 2010 Part 5: Vera Wang -
Vera Wang
Vera Wang pushed herself out of her comfort zone for her pre-fall 2010 collection with tailoring, structured outerwear, and body-hugging knits. The tinsel, mongolian fur and sequins made for some beautiful pieces perfect for the festive season...I loved the draped and structured pieces alike, this was a gorgeous collection:

Pre-Fall 2010 Part 4: Calvin Klein and Alexander Wang - Minimalist
Calvin Klein
Brazilian-designer Francisco Costa used innovative matte cashmere knits, made on a circular knitting machine to create a relaxed, cocoon like silhouette. Hanging on the racks were navy, ruby, and nectarine versions of many of the 17 black and white looks put on models; I wish I could sneak a peek at the coloured versions...My favourite piece was the last column dress...simple yet so stunning:

"My girl, she's got to go to work sometime," Alexander Wang joked. This collection was a definite departure from his edgy downtown vibe - decidedly more 'grown up'. I especially loved the jackets, the first jacket being my favourite; the layered peplumed leather corsets on top of a shirtdress or under a suit, and the long and lean silhouettes. He did another version of his draped goddess dresses (love these dresses of his), this time with a leather bra-cup bodice and sequins, I am still dreaming of owning (and fitting into) one of his white 'goddess' draped dresses...
