OSK GROUP ANNUAL DINNER 2019

Assalamualaikum :)

we had our annual company dinner on 12th July..tema jukebox so basically anything glamorlah kan..i bought a long wrap cardigan just 2 days before the date..pair it with jeans and my sister's boots..makeup on my own..jadilaa..just to get in the mood..kalau ikut last2 year samada yang betul2 all out menang or yang sexy..hahaha..aku malas nak bazir2 duit on clothes that im not gonna wear anymore..inipun xtau bila nak pakai macam nih lagi..

this year was a LOT better dari tahun2 lepas...dari segi venue, foodwise and entertainment...but hadiah luckydraw agak mengecewakan...maybe kurang sponsors...takpelaa...we had a lot of fun too

it took place at Majestic Hotel with laichi drink refreshments, big halls, live band, professional host and almost the same chinese cuisine every year...oklaa..nak kata sedap sangat taklaa tapi bolehlaa makan...

gambar during event tak banyak coz banyak masuk dalam IGs so yang ada group photo sahaja...tahun ni tak sempat nak bergambar kat photobooth...katanya almost 800 orang yang hadir..photo booth plak sekejap jer...mmg xsempat...yang best adalah lagu2 yang live band mainkan...semua lagu2 jukebox dari 70s to current song...mmg layanlaa..

jaga wuduk dari asar..masuk je azan maghrib terus pegi surau utk solat..pastu dah boleh melepas dengan tenang...hahaha

this year ramai yang pergi...kalau 4-5 orang muka yang sama jer...

and this year was a LOT better dari tahun2 lepas..dari segi tempat, 

with our leng chai CEO, Ong Ju Yan..he's wearing a coat standing 3rd from left...

weekend well spent

Assalamualaikum :)

Salam Maal Hijrah...seronoknya weekend 3 hari...lotsa things settled...dapat jalan2...bawak anak makan angin...dapat rehat jugak...ok, nak citer things from friday, aci tak?

friday, me and my colleagues playing make up at sephora..borak2 with my sister and girlfrens they said now its trend to wear ala gothic's lipstick..not limited to any colour..so we tried on ourselves lipstick yang memang kitorang takkan beli...blue, green, purple, dark brown...black jer tak sanggup nak try...but, no matter how odd it may look like but i think i like the blueish purple colour like in this pic...with suitable outfit and venue, why not kan..

on saturday, my nephew had a minor surgery to remove a cyst at his eyelid...nothing serious but we went to my mom's to meet him...nak visit kat hospital, within few hours after operation dah boleh discharge..tak macam orang sakit pun...elok berlari main dengan budak2 nih..kita plak yang seriau tgk dia..yelaa, luka tuh baru berjahit, takut berdarah balik jer...

on sunday we went to a wedding invitation dekat 1 of the chalet in sg. congkak...alang2, we packed our swimming gear too and off we went...took us 1.5 hours to reach to the kenduri..syok ok, memang tepi sungai betul2...and the food spread, cikgu cakap macam karnival...besides the buffet table lauk2 kenduri yang biasa tuh...ada lagi booth2 served roti canai panas2, nasi kukus ayam dara, burger, apam balek, sate minang, kuih muih (terbayang bubur som2 yang tak sempat nak rasa), air 4-5 kaler, aiskrim, eh...banyaklaa..

on the way to kenduri...ariana sempat tido sebelum sampai...gambar during kenduri takde...almaklum, melayan anak3 plus khusyuk makanlaa

we parked jauh ke depan...memang penuh keta kiri kanan...ada 2 kenduri masa tuh...tgk spot tuh ok plus ada org mandi manda...later on kitorg pun bentang tikar situ jer...lama tak mandi sungai...syok!!! 

memula bebudak nih taknak mandi...sebab dulu pernah bawak gi ulu yam, dia slip kat batu licin...macam terbenam sket so diorang trauma...lama2 syok plak...lagi2 ramai bebudak lain ada...

babah n kakak abang test air dulu...agak2 dah ceria baru babah amik ariq

kesian dia mandi bogel...sory, mommy lupa bwk baju dia...dip kejap jelaa...

ariq dip dalam 10 minit jer...pastu bg dia makan then sarung baju balik...pastu babah naik, mommy plak berendam...fuhh...rasa fresh sangat...tak dalam n tak cetek...just nice...lenkali nak datang lagilaa

that night, 2 of my girlfriends nak datang pick up their ciku...dah seminggu ada kat rumah aku baru nak datang amik...sebbaik ada jugak rezeki...separuh gak terbuang...setahun lebih kot tak jumpa diorang nih...ariq pun diorang tak pernah jumpa (nak merajuklaa..sobs) anyway, dengan short notice aku masak jer apa ada kat dapur...maka jadilaa spageti olio tak cukup bahan...but, diorang kata sedap...oklaa tuh kan...yang penting dapat jumpa...rindu sangat dah...another 3 ntah bila nak jumpa..."jauh" sangat...

the husbands and kids get along well too...

nanti kita gather2 lagi ye sayang2 sekalian...

because of that sneakers

Assalamualaikum :)

nak borak2 jer harini...perempuan nih kan banyak nafsu kan...tengok ni nak, tengok tu nak, duit jer taknak beranak2...hahaha...ok, not funny...anyway, ingat tak yang aku pegi times square bawak anak2 main kat indoor theme park tuh? haa, masa nak balik tuh sempatlaa usha2 kedai2 fashion kat situ...sambil lalu tuh mata laju scan...makin laju cikgu tolak stroller, makin juling mata tengok...hahaha...anyway, we stopped at few shops to buy yana's slippers and ariq's cap...suddenly cikgu ask me, why i never wear sneakers like that? don't i like them? 

at that time i said its not practical to wear that kind of shoes for a mom like me...when i'm running around chasing after my kids, i shouldn't be busy tying up my shoelaces...lepas tu habis kat situ jelaa...he probably doesn't even remember he asked me that...tapi perempuan nih ada naluri and it says its not just a simple question...it means more than that...hahaha...women and their complex mind...mulalaa fikir macam2...i kept it to myself for few days...then i ask my frens what does it mean? 

does it means i'm getting old, i should look young wearing youngsters fashion item?

does it means he's watching the young girls and attracted to their fashion?

does it means he's bored with the way i look?

the downside of same age couple like us is that the husband usually look much younger...20 years ago, we may look compatible for each other tapi makin lama makin nampak kita jauh berbeza...being a woman tak senang...nak kena jaga kulit, jaga badan...dahlaa urat banyak putus masa bersalin, collagen banyak hilang, kulit jadi kendur, now fashion pun nak kena up to date or you will look like you're going out with your younger brother...selain up to date, haruslaa syariah compliance jugak...umur nak cecah 35 nih, patut dah bolehlaa tinggalkan yang ketat2, jarang2 tuh...but a pair of sneakers won't hurt kan...i've been googling fashion style for 30s, casual look for 30s, how to style sneakers, hahaha...i'm a sucker i know...and mostly the looks doesn't suit me as hijabi...ok, tu semua godaan syaitoonnnn...i'm never gonna take off my hijab, InshaaAllah...kuatkanlah imanku ya Allah...but i'm still searching for the right style for me and our Malaysia hot weather...these are some that i like...rasanya sesuai tak with my age? wanna look young but don't wanna look trying too hard...you know what i mean? sepp sket!!!

who doesn't know vivy of gfashionvalet right? dia memang kecik molek anddd still young...belum 30 pun...bukan semua style dia flatter every body shape but this one nampak simple...boleh tukar heels tu dengan sneakers kan?

ni pun cantik but saya ada perut so this style not suitable for me...maybe kena tukar top yang lebih longgar

sematnyer jeans dia...tapi malas pulak nak kena pakai legging kat dalam...

30s. wearing this? cute but kenapa aku rasa cam tak sesuai?

comel gak pakai straight skirt macam 2 nih...this look is much better without the tucked in shirt

boyfriend jeans and long cardigan...must have item in my revamp wardrobe list...

she look 30s. and she look effortlessly chic...

anyway, most of my frens told me not to overthink about it but do give the sneakers a try...ok, jom cuci mata...

lawan tokey keww??

cakk!!!!haaa...tanjat tak? tanjat tak? alaaa, kasilaa can sesekali nak selfie...sesambil melayan si kenit tuh (tangan dia pun nak menyelit sama)...ni gambar masa malam ira (my sil) nikah...oh, citer full dia kawin tuh tunggu majlis sambut menantu 23hb nih settle baru aku wat special entry skaligus k...aku bawak 2 pasang baju untuk malam nikah...1 baju kurung mint green raya 2 tahun lepas, n 1 lagi baju kurung moden cotton kaler putih corak bolat2 kaler pastel belum pernah pakai lagi...cikgu suruh aku pakai baju putih tuh sebab lebih matching ngan dia yang pakai light purple...nak manja2 pulak cikgu nih nak sama2 kaler baju tau...anak2 main belasah jer baju apa yang ada...oleh sebab tudung yang aku bawak cuma putih je yang boleh match, aku pun pakaila tudung putih...mekap2 sikit pastu aku kuar bilik...

pastu makcik2 usik cakap aku macam nak lawan pengantin plak pakai putih gitu...laaa...pulak...pastu kelam kabutlaa pegi carik tudung lain kat sil, yang ada tudung bawal kaler pink...bolehlaa janji bukan putih...tadaa...haa, bertukar kepada rupa kakak ipar pengantin...hehehe...

pengantin lagi lawolaa...mekap artis yang mekapkan...dengan bulu mata palsu lagi...mana boleh lawan...orang kata muka ira lepas mekap macam fafau...ada ker? maybe sebab aku dah selalu tengok dia, tak perasan sangatla...tapi kalau tengok sekilas macam ada gak sikit...

p/s : haa...amik. sampai 3 entry harini. entry lunch tuh scheduled post. sajer nak amik mood berblogging balik :)

mana nak carik nih?

since i've decided to make mint green as my raya theme, i've been searching for scarf with the matching color for my raya attire. also nak carik rompers for baby mikhail with the same color and kebaya nyonya for ariana. my oh my. sangat susah okey. especially when i want printed scarf coz my baju is plain chiffon with a little of pink flower embroidery. takkan nak pakai tudung plain lagi kan? oh, n also becoz i dig printed scarves nowadays. i've already started collecting plain color tops to match with them. love. bila jumpa yang ala-ala mint green, they said it is turqoise. NOooo...turqoise lebih terang, bold, more blueish while mint green is baby like. pastel, soft, dreamy kind a color. kan? look at this post. wani, (ewah, aku panggil wani jer macamlaa kenal kan :P) akak pinjam jap entry kamu yer. look at the eyeshadow pallette. the top left is turqoise, besides it is mint green. different right?

her post shows most mint green clothes and accessories. my favourite is the wedding dress. apa kata pengantin2 in future use this kind of pastel green as wedding attire. asek putih jer bowink tau. nikah pun ok coz the color is not too bright. it will still show the pureness and sweetness of the bride. besides, green is the favourite color of our beloved prophet s.a.w right? cantikkk sangat. i only have less than 1 month to browse n look around before my confinement. after that it will be a bit hectic to go shopping with babies n toddler in each hand. so, hopefully i could get my hands on the things that im looking for or maybe perhaps if some of you do find these things can inform me. kesian kat mak buyung nih nak gi shopping mall. tak larat dah nak jalan nih.

anyway, whats your raya theme for this year? mesti vavavoom kan?

mint green it is

ok, nak gedik2 kejap pasal raya tahun nih. berkobar2 padahal puasa pun belum lagi. hahaha. ok, not funny. selalunya aku n cikgu gilir2 pilih tema kaler. 1st year aku pilih kuning, then dia pilih hitam, then peach, then grey and this year aku pilih mint green. simply becoz i already have a pair of embroidered chiffon kaler mint green in my hand. selalunya aku pilih tema pun gitula. kain apa yang belum buat baju lagi, kaler itula yang aku pilih. well, u can see our difference choice of colours. cikgu suka pilih non-colour (eric leong kata black, white n grey is not colour) meanwhile i like colourful choices. next year cikgu dah chop kaler brown pulak. boring. over kan. raya tahun nih pun belum. tak kisahla. yang penting we have each other as a family.

but the most exciting part is there will be 4 of us this year. tak sabar nak pakaikan baby A baju kaler hijau altho by that time dia mungkin less than 2 month old. tak kira, nak gak. so, masa gi amik baju tunang sil kat tailor, aku dah pun hantar skali kain nak buat baju raya. 2 pasang jer. hantar skali ngan baju contoh coz irrelevant pulak nak amik ukuran mak buyung nih kan. buat baju kurung sudah. easy n definitely boleh muat pakai. kang nak buat kurung moden whatsoever sendat pulak. naya jer.

well, these are the shades of mint green that i googled. i punya yang i enlarge tuh. so, tinggal nak carik baju kebaya untuk ariana, baju melayu untuk cikgu n cute romper for baby A. baby takyah bertradisional dulula. tecit lagi. for ariana, since i saw ladynoe dressed her doter in kebaya nyonya cam comellaa pulak. tambahan ariana pun dah boleh berlari. but harga kebaya siap for kids mahal gakla. kat ampang park last year they sell about rm129/pair. mak aih. nak pakai kejap jer kot. sapa tau mana nak carik kebaya nyonya for little girl with price less than rm100? btw, whats your colour theme this year?

hijab and me

Alhamdulillah sejak bulan ramadhan nih nampak ramai yang mula bertudung. kenapa bulan ramadhan sedangkan bulan2 lain pun boleh mula bertudung? antara sebab yang boleh aku fikir is tak ada syaitan dan iblis yang akan menghasut perkara2 negatif berkenaan pemakaian tudung dan lepas sebulan dah biasa dan selesa, si pemakai akan terus bertudung walaupun selepas ramadhan. dan bulan ramadhan nih kan penuh ketenangan dan keberkatan, mudah untuk kita beribadat dan juga peluang untuk melipat gandakan pahala.

i dun think that i am a fit person to talk about hijab dan aurat coz kengkadang aku pun tak menjaga aurat dengan betul misalnya di rumah dengan ipar duai dan tetamu. dalam family pun aku sorang jer yang bertudung mungkin berkat didikan arwah onyang. syukur Alhamdulillah my mom pun dah mula bertudung since awal tahun. tunggu adik2 jer ntah bila akan mengikut jejak. sebelum mula bertudung, aku selalu berpesan pada adik2 supaya menjaga pakaian diorang supaya tidak menjolok mata. adik2 aku ramai perempuan. bahaya ada di mana2 lagi2 kalau di provoke. risau.

aku mula bertudung ke sekolah masa tingkatan 1. masa tuh cuma ke sekolah jer. then naik form 3 aku mula kumpul tudung2 dari pemberian makcik2, beli sendiri dalam 2-3 helai. masa tuh tak banyak pilihan bagi yang bertudung. semuanya tudung square cuma material jer yang berbeza. ada silk, satin, jacquard, cotton, tak pun tudung 3segi yang dah siap dijahit manik all around (try google tapi tak jumpa). susah giler nak gosok yang tuh tau. chiffon2, manik2, takde yer.

lepas tuh masa aku masuk UUM, barulaa aku kenal tudung bawal. tapi masa tuh still mahal lagi. RM55 kalau tak salah. aku still pkai tudung 3segi yang ada bunga ros kecik2 kat every end. eh, tau ker korang tudung 3segi yang aku cakap nih? kalau tak paham, buat2 paham jelaa eh. then tudung bawal pun berkembang dengan pesat dari bersulam ke diamond ke double diamond ke triple diamond. triple diamond tuh beratus harganya. skarang lagi dah berevolusi dengan banyak. ada corak airmatalaa, mataharilaa, ntah apa ntah lagi. aku dapat collect almost every color. seronok susun semua tudung ikut color coded. macam pelangi lak. evolusi tudung bawal nih lama jugak kan sampai aku keje pun still takde new comer.

then datanglaa cik awning. memula diorang panggil tudung instant. antara yang paling awal promote tudung nih ekin kan? ingat tak? pastu orang panggil tudung ekin. coz sangat senang pakai n tak payah susah2 nak accessorize. cuma tak best masa nak simpan. kalau dah terpatah awning tuh mulala semuanya tak kena. pastu muncul tudung syria. tang mana ntah dapat nama tuh. orang syria pakai tudung gitu ker? daripada instant berkembang pulak inner syria+shawl. and now aku tengok shawl pulak yang giat skrang. from plain to patterns. from cotton to chiffon to silk.

the youngsters especially those that are bold and kreatif come up with various style of wearing shawl. berpusing2 mata aku tengok diorang belit dalam youtube. knowing me, smua pun nak try. apa mottonyer kawan2? ye, "janji ada 1". so, aku skarang tgh blaja pakai shawl mengikut kesesuaian muka tembam aku dan status aku sebagai seorang mummy. takkan mummy nak pakai yang serebeh2 kan. anak tarik skali jer dah terlondeh. antara styler yang aku suka tengok is from the scarflets and hijaber community. sangat2 kreatif tapi aku taklaa bold cam diorang. sikit2 jer.
