Hey everyone, I’ve recovered a little bit now so I wanted to show you what I got up to on the night of the Nuffnang Asia Pacific Blog Awards!
I’m going to do another post tomorrow with all of the other days, this is just about the awards night it’s self. I had the time of my life and it was so wonderful meeting everyone in person!
So on to what you’ve all been waiting for…
That night we gave ourselves 2 hours to get ready. I didn’t want to rush at all I just wanted to chill out and enjoy myself.
Everything went really smoothly. My theme for the night was flowers and the jewelery that Celeste from Little Waltz made for me suited everything beautifully! I’m going to do a blow by blow of the whole outfit in another post because other than the jewelery I made everything myself!
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 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! 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 *_* I was taking photos with Audrey from FourFeetNine when who should jump into our photo but Grace from Living Footprints! Of course Grace and I had to start taking stupid photos, Audrey couldn’t help looking adorable in them 😛 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! |
