Lets just cut to the chase, i was super excited about the Wevents 4th anniversary party, themed 'the retro you'. I mean, common, the title says it all. We're practically living in the 21st century, and going back into time would be an amazing experience. Well, not exactly back in time, but well, maybe to dress according to a certain period would be an amazing experience. HAHA.

Theme: The Retro You

Date: 15th August 2014

Time: 6pm -9pm

I was looking forward to the event as the theme is super interesting and the fact that its a ladies night kind of event (not clubbing) where we can enjoy being women and not be judged, it was something any woman would look forward to after working, some womanly time! I had a great time and at this very moment, I'm not exactly sure where to start. LOL. 

So, i went with my high school peeps and also my mum, cause I've always think that my mum need a break from all the work that she has been going through to make sure me and my siblings have proper education and food. So, yes, i think i was the only one who actually brought my mum to the event. But lets just admit the fact that any working woman deserves a break right? And I'm proud to have my mum there with me. On the plus side, made me felt pretty young too. Win -Win situation.

Lets talk about how i decided what to wear that night. Theme, was pretty obvious as the whole event was called 'The Retro You', so we're pretty sure you're suppose to dress retro that night right? And what i did was what any other girl would do, ask uncle google. haha. So here are my findings that i wanted to look like.

POLKA DOTS! you can never go wrong with dots right?! Or am i procrastinating. lol.  Pretty much effortless really. Because i was too busy to think about what to wear that night, i wasn't sure what to do with my hair too. So i decided to drop by Number 76, and got @76Calvin to do my hair. & how was the results? Flawless. Thank you Calvin!

So kudos to the amazing team you have Wevents. Everyone was super nice! So here's my thank you for making me welcomed :)

As we were seated, there were food for us to eat. Most of them pretty healthy, and its easy to eat too! It was more to light bites, which was good enough for me as we were going to be on the dance floor anyway. So here's a photo of me and my dates for that night. Thanks for the company girls.

While we enjoyed our meal, we had entertainment too by special strong women who were daring enough to be on stage. From dancing to singing their heart out. It was such a pleasant experience to be able to see how happy these women can be especially off working hours.

Me and my girls enjoying our meals and mango juice.

Singing her heart out, and she sounds amazing!

Activities were also happening, from bringing your old photos from the past for a show and  tell and also a competition for best dressed. Its funny that my mum was one of the finalist. GO MUM! haha. But i think it was mostly cause of the hat she was wearing. How can you not look at that big fancy hat walking around in the hall? :p

The finalist for best dressed, congratulation girls, you guys look amazing nothingness :)

And the winner of best dressed goes to.. RUPA! Lets face it, who can beat her in that outfit.

 And the party doesn't even end there yet, next was the open floor, we had to shake our booty and get some moves on the floor. how exciting! and the best dancer on the floor will win a prize from one of the sponsors. not a bad deal right? try and see if you can spot me on the floor. HEHE

You don't have to worry if you don't know how to dance though, because they had a professional dancer to give you instructions of what to do. What fascinated me the most was that our instructor was pregnant! Who says you can do work when you're pregnant? THUMBS UP TO  NIKKI LAW FOR BEING AMAZING! This proves that nothing can stop a woman from having fun.

As the clock was slowly reaching 9pm, there was a lucky draw prize give away, and i didn't think i would win anything, so i decided to check out the pretty Photo Booth and take some snap shots before everyone jams the place up. hehe. So, here are some of the outcomes of the photo. It was so nice for the committee to email us the photos. The photo booth was by 123cheese as one of their sponsors. They also do Photo Booth for events, you can refer at the bottom of this post to find out how you can contact them :)
