LOTD: Indian Style!!

Every wedding involves the dress, getting ready and the ceremony... not just for the bride and groom. Those attending also get to go through the process.

Last Sunday, I had the opportunity to attend my first indian wedding, and it started with the dress.

One month before the big day, the bride-to-be took me and my colleagues shopping at Tekka Market for a traditional indian outfit.

It's not everyday I get to wear an indian outfit so we were all very excited. Getting dressed, I made sure I had everything right, from the gold bracelets right down to the matching purple-gold heels! And of course, a new hair colour!

Everyone looked awesome!!
 

The ceremony was very interesting. The bride had on the most elaborate outfit I've seen, dorned head to toe in gold! For 20 minutes, the wedding couple were on stage doing their prayers, and then we had the opportunity to throw rice at the couple!
 

It was a lovely night! Hopefully, my pretty indian outfit will have a chance out of the wardrobe again!!

Give me CURLS!

Today, I got a chance to dabble with some hair extensions from Hair Extensions Bar (HEB). I simple love the pony tail hair extensions which mimic those Japanese big waves down to the T.

BEFORE:
I've got naturally wavy hair that's stubborn to the core. Hair curling thongs do not work on me for long. Last night, I slept with hair sponge curlers in my hair and woke to beautiful tight curls which lasted for only 3 hours, despite applying hair spray this morning :( By midday, my curls became untidy big waves.

AFTER:
The HEB pony tail was so easy to attach onto my hair and the curls were sooooo natural, I felt like a princess! It's amazing how beautiful hair (though fake) makes you feel. Hee. HEB is made of heat resistant fiber, which means if I get sick of the curls, I can iron it straight too! Doesn't my 'hair' look healthy?

It comes in black, brown and light brown, but my dyed and redyed hair colour lies between brown & light brown. Too bad...

Can't wait to recolour my hair next month!
