I've changed my mind! You guys remember the pink laptop that I said I wanted for my birthday? I've decided not to have that one anymore. Not because I don't need a laptop, but I've got something even better in mind. Please allow me to introduce my new dream gadget to you guys, the new sleek and stylish HP Mini Vivienne Tam Edition. So, what do you think, peeps? Isn't this better?
It is said to be the world's first "digital clutch" that fuses technology and fashion to connect with fashionistas globally. I think it is a brilliant idea that a computer company has partnered with a globally renowned designer creation to create a notebook PC such as this!
She, i meant this HP Mini Vivienne Tam Edition, made her first official appearance in a catwalk at Tokyo, Japan on November 25 2008. The peony-flower inspired design is a unique blend of Asian and Western cultures, antique and modern styles, technology and fashion. It is of cause inspired by Vivienne Tam's collection herself - Spring 09 collection.
At less than 1-inch thick and weighing just over 1 kg, you can comfortably carry this notebook PC around, just like your own clutch. Its 10.1 inch BrightView Infinity widescreen display (1,024 x 576 resolution) comes with flush glass and LED backlight, built-in webcam and microphone. Best of all, it comes with a highly acclaimed keyboard that is 92 percent the size of a standard notebook PC keyboard and also features a uniquely designed “double happiness” Enter key. Cool! I don't have to worry about my fingers being too big for the button.
For more information on this beauty, please download the brochure from its official website. And if you're planning to give me a surprise, go ahead! It is estimated to be priced at around US$799 only.
I've always been very much in love with paperdoll. It is better known as dress up game now where you can play online. You remember the last i played dress up game? I was so obsessed with it that i go on creating dollies for all my blogger friends. It was so obsessive but at the same time so much fun! There are so many dress up games available online now. It's hard to find one that is really good.
Today, I have a guest author, Lisa Park to talk to us about the top 3 dress up games online. I got to know her when she first commented in my Dress Up Game Post. We shared the same passion in dress up games and became friend. Unlike me, her passion has driven her to move forward and a step ahead by creating a website entirely dedicated to dress up games. Let's not waste anymore time, and welcome her to AGP, shall we! :) *applause*
When you head online to play a few rounds of dress up games, you have your choice of many different kinds of activities, but by far the favorites seem to be the characters we are most familiar with. In the case of fashion doll games, the most popular characters to dress up appear in Sue games, Bratz games and Barbie games.
Sue Games In Avatar Star Sue games, or usually just Sue Games, the cute anime style character Se appears for both dress up and other styles of fashion games. You can give Sue an entirely new look including her clothing and make-up or just choose a new hairstyle that suits your current mood and what you think Sue might enjoy that day.
In many cases, when you have completed a new Sue game, you have the option of saving your completed creation as a avatar or image on your computer. You can use the pink little princess for any of your own purposes including your profiles on forums or other social networking websites. Even if you never save or print a doll you created during Sue games, you'll likely become addicted to the pint-sized online phenomenon.
Bratz Games Bratz are easily one of the most popular fashion dolls both onscreen and off. Online, the Bratz dolls are easier to accessorize than ever before and girls are turning out in droves to enjoy their favorite characters on the internet with vast quantities of wardrobe choices and hairstyles available.
As with any doll, when you finish Bratz games, you have the option of using your creation for another purpose, but playing with dolls is so addicting that it's just as likely that you'll simply start a new round rather than treasuring a single fabulous outfit forever. The Bratz are known for their urban style and funky looks. Practicing putting these styles in Bratz games might even help you become a better dresser yourself.
Barbie Games Before there were Sue games and Bratz games, there were Barbie games. Barbie is almost five decades old, but she's still going strong. Barbies still sell well in toy stores and you can find Barbie just as easily on many pages of the internet. Barbie games are among the most popular dress up games for younger girls, and it's easy to see why.
There are multitudes of fashion choices, many more than you'd ever be able to handle in your toy box. Dressing Barbie in the latest fashions is simple online and when you find an outfit you like, you always have the option to print our your online Barbie doll and use her as a paper doll during times you're offline. The more Barbie games you play online, the greater your fashion skills will grow and the more Barbie paper dolls you'll accumulate to go alongside your collection of true Barbie dolls.

Thank you, Lisa! :)
First Commentator Congratulations, Marzie! and thank you for your comments love! :)
Yes, I'm gonna be a bridesmaid this coming september yet still have no dress to wear. I can't believe how fast time flies! When my friend told me about her wedding two and a half months ago, I thought, "Well, I still have time to shop around."
But now, look at me! Look at my wardrobe! I don't have any new special occasion dresses to wear! Realizing that I don't have any time to shop around, I look for another alternative, that is to shop online. Hehe, thanks to the modern technology, rite! :)
To my luck, i've found a great website called Rissy Roo's which offers lots of prom dresses and prom shoes, as well as other party dresses. What I like about Rissy Roo's is that they register each and every dress and will only sell one of each style to any special event. That's mean you don't have to worry about style clashes. :)
Come and help me decide! I had my eyes on these few dresses. Which is the best for me? Remember, my dress cannot be too exaggerated, I'm only the bridesmaid! :)
oh, don't worry about the color! i can still pick the color! :)

Have you ever played paperdoll during your childhood? I have! And it was my favourie past time. I remembered, I was always nagging my parents to buy for me at the convenient store down the lane. And when they really had bought for me, I was delightful and enjoyed dressing up the paperdoll all by myself. My sister was 5 years older than me, so we don't share the same toy.
And when I was at Bobo's place the other day, I saw that she has registered herself in a new Barbie-like game called Miss Bimbo. So, I registered myself too. I was excited but because the game loaded very slow, I only played once so far.
Then yesterday, I saw Bobo have found new thingy. It was the dress up game. I was intensely enthusiastic about it. In my heart I was shouting,"Oh God! Oh God! This is fantastic!".(If I had Ariel's decease, i think my heart would stop pumping because of inordinate excitement. :P) And so, I immersed myself into it. After hours & hours, here are some of my mix & match...

Finally, I've completed her cocktail bag. It's partly hand sewn, partly machine sewn and partly using fabric glue. 100% hand made by me. Outer dimesion: 19.5cm x 4cm x 10.5cm.
Would you buy if this bag is for sales? Darling said at least this bag will cost RM100 because it's 100% handmade & custom made.
Today, 23rd May 2007 is my sweetheart chloe's 1st birthday. She's very clever now. Getting smarter nowadays. Last saturday, my mom taught her how to blow candle. After first teaching only, she was able to remembered and was able to blow her 1st birthday cake during the party on Sunday (Will blog about the party when i get the pictures from my sis). And just now, my sis bought her a play mobile phone, chloe knows how to use it. She put it near her ear and mumble,"Hello". How smart! :D How i wish i could record it and show it to you all! (*sigh* am still without a camera).
Back to myself, I've just finished hand sewn the chiffon embroidery onto the fabric. Am making a cocktail bag for Steph, to go with the dress that i've make for her 2 months ago. Left: It's only the front piece. If all goes smoothly, i'll be able to complete the bag by this thursday. >.<
Me & darling went to Summit USJ on last wednesday hoping that we'll be able to get tickets for "Spiderman 3" 8.30pm show. Again, we were disappointed to found out that the good seats either had been reserved or purchased. What we have is only 3rd row from the screen which is too near for me. So, we had to cancelled our Wednesday movie. Darling was very disappointed because he had been wanted to watch "Spiderman 3" since the first release at cinema. (poor him!) What I can't believe is that, 2 weeks after the release, it is still selling like hot cakes.
After that, we walked around Summit. Initially it was just a friendly window shopping, but i ended up with a pump and a working shirt. The pump was a good deal. Normally a pump like this would cost me at least RM70/pair. But I've got this @ RM19.90. Without further consideration, i grabbed it from the shelf. Even my darling - my wardrobe controller agreed with my buying. :)
"A promise made is a promise to be fulfilled", I reminded myself. Even though my heart felt heavy to help my sister to design and make an evening gown, I had to do it.
2 months ago, my sis saw the evening gown that i've made for Steph (Melvin's girlfriend). She loves it and DEMANDED that i do the same thing for her. I promised her that time because I don't want her to get jealous and I love practicing and putting my knowledge/skills into action. But as time goes by, i was busy with my work & life that i've forgotten about it until last tues. I remembered her saying that she needs the gown for a dinner on July 1. Realising that a promise made is a promise to be fulfilled, i called her up and set a day for sourcing of fabric. Today, I went to SS2 with my sis for this reason. We went into 2 fabric shops but couldn't set our eyes on any of it. Not to waste any more time, I suggested that we have a look at Nagoya (Textile Shop), Carrefour Subang Jaya. With a mere hope of getting a good fabric, we went to Nagoya. We spent an hour ++ mixing and matching the fabrics. At last, we bought a flowery turqoise netting and a blue satin. Total buy: RM95. It was a "Good Shit" deal. And now, I need to finish a cocktail bag for Steph before I could start drafting my sis's gown.
Hi, I've designed a few outfits at Project Runway website (sponsored by Saturn). To see my designs, simply click on one the below category. Remember to cast your vote for me! ;)
Why do I always use the pink butterfly at beginning of my title? Have you ever wonder? Or do you think that it's just a deco. Well, let me have the truth unveiled. It's actually my signature: CHC. Can you see the "C" on the left wing, "H" on the body and an inverted "C" on the right wing? :) Now, u will see it. :)
Actually, i've designed this signature when i was studying fashion in 2000-2002. I thought I could use this as my fashion label. Well, things got out of my hand after my graduation and I landed in this "out of my mind" line. I've no regrets to not being able to work as a fashion designer and be known. I believe that this path I am walking is a path that God wanted me to walk. And because of this little faith, (some may think I am absurd for believing in God), I've journeyed through thick & thicker obstacles and I am still walking with God. Although the journey may not be smooth, but God promised that He will be with us, always. Again because of this little faith, I find courage & strength to go on my everydays' life. I understand that some peoples will find it ridiculous for believing in Someone who has died 2000 years ago. What more absurd is that believing that He died on the cross for our sins? "Who asked him to do that? I don't need Him to die for me. I've no sin or whatsoever,"people may think this way. I would agree with them if I haven't experience God's love for me and my family. He has been merciful to me and show me His great love & forgiveness. God gives His love freely to those who ask from Him. God forgives if you seek for forgiveness from Him. Let me conclude my post with a prayer, "Dear Jesus Christ, Thank you for showing Your Love to me. I pray that whoever read this will ponder upon your teaching and may the Holy Spirit speak to them right now. Lord, I do not know how you will make this happen but I believe in you. Let Your love filled their hearts. Bless the person who is reading this with abundant blessings. Bless his/her family, friends & love ones. Thank you, Lord Jesus. In Jesus most precious & powerful name I prayed, Amen."
