 After I was ready Candice aka Super Kawaii Mama who we had been hanging out with all day invited us to her room so we could arrive together.
All ready to go! This was my outfit run down for the Asia Pacific Blog Awards:
Dress- Hand made
Petticoat- Hand made
Wrap- Hand made
Jewelery- Little Waltz
Eyelashes- 1000Hour Lashes
Hair accessories- Hand made
Shoes- Witner but decorated by me
Bag- from DFO but decorated by me hahaha!
Nails- surprise! Decorated by me!
Candice, her husband Craig and I put the last touches on our outfits before heading downstairs. They looked so elegant!
Downstairs we met up with Erica from Girl With a Satchel, who was the other blogger from Brisbane. We traveled together and she is just too lovely!
While we were taking photos in the lobby of the hotel, everyone started taking our photos too! I felt like a celebrity!
There was literally a wall of other bloggers snapping us!
We traveled by bus to the event and around half way there Craig (who was sitting behind me) tapped me on the shoulder and pointed outside to the car full of kids who were waving and cheering at me! XD So cute!
When we arrived we were greeted with an explosion of camera flashes! We all walked the red carpet to the official photographer and got some shots done.
Aussie bloggers for the win!
Here I am posing with the program. It was a lovely souvenir! The entertainment for the night was Alan Woo (a Singaporean tv celebrity), JC Sum and Magic Babe Ning and the band Electro. I felt bad for Alan Woo, he was doing his best to keep everyone on track but with a room full of bloggers everyone kind of does their own thing!
We shared our table with the adorable Valerie from Dweam and her friends. Here we are making silly Mickey Mouse faces with the ears she borrowed from one of the fashion bloggers!
Valerie and her friends (who’s names I couldn’t hear over the loud music sorry!)
James chilling with some water looking suave ;)
Reading about the nominees…
Our view of the stage.
Each person got a little jar of hard candy which actually have Nuffnang’s initials/logo in the candy! They were really yummy!
It was funny how many people wanted my photo, I didn’t realize so many people actually read my blog! I felt so much like a celebrity, I think I took photos with everyone there!!!
Here I am with Ringo from Cheeerland who had super cute make up.
James’ Pringles video CAME SECOND!!!! They picked the two best ones and played them both on the big screen! He was so excited! Here he is with the winner Jayden (who’s video was super professional). James was so happy to meet him!
This is to give you an idea of the number of people there… it was a massive event! We didn’t realize how big blogging was in Asia *_*
Of course Grace and I had to start taking stupid photos, Audrey couldn’t help looking adorable in them :P
The food that night was delicious, it was absolutely 5 star!
The desert was my favorite, it was some kind of chocolatey cheese cake (maybe?) which tasted like Bueno… Perfect! And it gave me the perfect chance to show off my cute new eyelashes courtesy of 1000Hour Lashes ;)
After all of that excitement I was pretty tired so I settled into bed to wake up early for the tour day in the morning.
I had such a wonderful night, I really can’t thank Nuffnang enough. This was an opportunity of a lifetime and I couldn’t be happier. Look out for me next year on the nominee’s list ;)
I hope everyone else has fun at the Asia Pacific Blog Awards too!

haha yes… I remember that. Sorry for jumping into your pics. My camera battery was DEAD so i didn't even get to take it with me to the awards, so I was randomly jumping into everyone's pics so atleast I had picture memories of it. Plus well… if no one wanted to take a photo with me, I sure made sure I got a photo with them :) hehehe… *sigh*
AngelKein- Thank you!
Mike Yip- Aww thanks XD I'll go have a look now ^_^
Craig- We felt exactly the same about you guys, it was so lovely to have people we really clicked with to hang out with :) We definitely have to get together again soon! Thanks for being such awesome friends, see you down south ;)
Grace- I wanted to take photos with you silly! You were so busy talking to important people for most of the night I didn't get my chance till the end XD Aww I wish we could have hung out more *hug* You can steal all my photos anytime :P Home made dresses for the win!

Congrats on getting to Singapore! I found your blog through SKM and I love your style. I'm more into Gothic lolita myself, but I love that you're not not afraid to be different and stand out from boring mainstream fashion :)
Love it all. Can't wait to hear how you made the outfit!
What wonderful photos. Looks like you had a terrific time. You also look beautiful! Love the dress.
Looks like you all had SO much fun! And you all look FABULOUS!! Loooove your outfit. So sweet. And congratulations to James for coming second too. I can't wait to see the rest of your posts!
Looks like such a glamorous event!! And it also looks like you just had a ton of fun! Big congrats to James for his second place win, that is awesome. My son just loved his video :)
Naka- It was a huge event, I couldn't believe how big it was!
Fashionate Traveller- Thanks so much! It was really such an honor to be among so many other fantastic bloggers! I used to be really into Gothic Lolita then I moved into Sweets style and now I've grown up a little into Hime Gyaru. I think I'll always have a love of Princess styles :)
Christie- Loved yours too! I'm going to devote a whole post to the outfit because so much time and planning went in ^_^
Lucy- Oh I had the time of my life! Thank you so much!
Esz- IT WAS AWESOME! James says thank you too! I can't even put into words how much the weekend meant ^_^ It was like being a celebrity for the weekend XD
Brooke- It was 5 star all the way, I felt a little out of place because I'm used to McDonalds rather than fancy tiny food on giant plates! James says thank you very much ^_^
You guys really stand out during the night. Hope you remember us, the one who a took a picture of you and my friend. We really like your Pringles post and video!
Cheers,
Ada
