Happy 9th!

My wedding anniversary presents came early this year. :)



This pouch fits my iPad. I love the two women smokers. Please don't ask why. ;)






Can you guess what this is?



It's the Abstract Signature Bow Velvet Marga. The color, design and material - I LOVE it to bits!

Random



Spotted in a hotel lobby. I get the 'R' button, it probably stands for 'redial'. But what about 'F'?



A bell jar of my favourite keropok! Heavenly!



A bowl of wanton mee but where is the wanton??



After 'digging' and 'stirring' around, I found ONE. One miserable looking wanton!
Is this oneton mee or wanton mee??
J suggested that the next time I order, I should say 'a bowl of wantonS mee, please'. Grrr!

Boutonnieres

I first noticed Kang Ji Hwan because of the boutonnieres he wore in the Korean drama 'Lie to Me'. I have never liked lapel pins but his boutonnieres look pretty!



So I asked J if he would consider wearing these. He surfed the Internet to see if these could be bought and to our horror, we discovered that one of these cost $28. In a spur of a moment, I told him he's not to buy them and that I will make them for him instead. I mean, it's just a flower cut out from a felt and some sewing right? Uh, how hard can it be?? *panic sets in*

Turns out it really wasn't too difficult. Thank God!



The eventual product. Not too shabby, yeah? :) I'm quite pleased. *beam*

J has an overseas conference in September. These should go well with his black business suit. I chose blue because J will probably wear his suit jacket with jeans. Maroon because he likes that colour.



Black button sewn at the back to match the colour of his jacket.



Oops, the colour is a little off here. His jacket is black and the flower a royal blue.



Kang Ji Hwan's boutonnieres get really fanciful but I don't think I will attempt to make these! Too complicated!



I love this one! Kinda reminds me of Hello Kitty's ribbon. I don't think many men can carry this off!
