The title is too formal. Anyways, just like any other event, the best part of the event is preparing for it. Get this, get that. Buy this, buy that.
Not saying the party was boring, it was actually heaps fun. 100 x better than last year's. We had awesome Indian food and Indian desserts. We also had dancers from the Indian Dancing Society (something like that) to perform for us.
Not to say I was being a pessimist but a few days before the event, I had a feeling that it would rain on Sun before the party and IT DID! Like what the fuck mate! The entire week it was sunny and warm up til Sunday 6pm. Just as I was about to leave the apartment, it started to pour like a motherfucker!
FML. So I had to take a taxi. Wasted money pfft.
I had my makeup done at Kit Cosmetics at Myers. It was $45 redeemable which means you get to choose the products they used in your makeover up to the amount of $45. But I paid $85 coz the loose powder I choose was already $85 wtf.
The makeup girl taught me how to draw my eyeliner properly since I have a "hidden" double eyelid on my left eye. She also gave me a sample of Origins Make a Difference Treatment gel. It is a hydrating gel and it is SOO good! I am going to buy a jar of that shit.
So here is the end result of my makeover. She used a dark shimmery purple on outer lid and bronzy gold on inner lid. Thick eyeliner, put one one coat of glittery gel on top of liner and mascara.
It was my fault. I thought my sari was a deep purple but then I got home and realised it was sorta more on magenta. Opps >.>Got there at about 6.45pm. Pre-dinner drinks.
Candid shot of us trying to fix my sari which keeps slipping off. Dammit.
