Bloggers Party at Choupinette

By icyabstract · January 18, 2010 · 21 Comments ·

A quick entry on an interesting and rather fun event I had attended earlier today.

I was invited, along with a couple of onsugarettes, to this 'tea party' at Choupinette - a  little French Cafe. It is simply an event where by we hang out with other bloggers, chat around and all. It was also for this events company, One9ninety, to get to know us bloggers better to understand what we are interested in and all that jazz.

I attended the event with Kas and Chantana. It was really great and fun meeting up with the girls again.
Kas is as always very friendly and fun to talk to, Chantana was a lot more outspoken this time and super adorable!

Here are just some shots of the interior of the cafe and the on-goings.


Interior of the cafe. This is about 3/4 of the cafe. What is behind me is the wall pictured before this.


Funny random shot where I shoot Chantana shooting me. haha.


Met up with Shirleen whom I got to know at the Dr Z. workshop; she has AMAZING skin, no joke.
And I lol'd when I reviewed the photo and saw Chantana popping her head up at the back, totally unexpected! We then took a photo together - Chantana, Shirlenn and I - but I don't have that on my camera.

At the event we were served desserts and also a beverage of our choice, but here is the buffet of desserts.

I am a total sucker for snacks, this was pretty much heaven. But no, I didn't drain the snack stand dry, don't worry.

We were also presented with a little goodie bag housing some pretty awesome stuff. Very unconventional (compared to goodie bags I had received of late), but I like (:


The mini bag contains a necklace from Darsálá, along with some catalogues.


While flipping the catalog, I spotted the necklace that I had received (everyone's necklace in the goodie bag is different).


Pretty (: I don't own any really long necklaces so this is an interesting piece to add to my collection.
For anyone wondering, Darsálá is from Paris (I think) and has a store branch opened at Wisma Atria if you wish to check their products out.

We also received a little perfume sample.
There is a little backstory behind the perfume sample but if you're not interested to read it, you can skip this paragraph. So like the necklace we all got random perfumes. Basically I swapped perfume with this other girl because she didn't like the random scent that she had received; while I, on the other hand, loved it. I believe she liked the one I had, and she was agreeable to the swap.
So this was the one I ended up with!

The one I had before was 'Rockstar' and smelt a little more floral and brighter. This one is on the muskier and 'wood-sier' side and I really enjoy it. I might just go search up on the company that makes this. It's a great scent to wear for a night out, I think.

 

That is all! Thank you guys for reading!

@liana123 Yeap it's super pretty. Can't wait to find an outfit to best wear it with.

@retail_therapy It's really cute indeed! The chairs are quite adorable. It would have been awesome if you could make it! haha. And their macarons are good? I find it quite hard to find super nice ones... or maybe I haven't been eating many around.

@roseannetangrs Aw, but I hope you're feeling better now!

@glitzy Oh hi there, I remember you! Thanks for helping us snap the picture (: And yes, I was speaking with Shirleen the other time about skincare and wow she knows a whole lot!

@amyrleex Thank you!

@debx Haha yeah, Chantana is so adorable!

@Ange Demon013 I prefer more savory stuff so I actually liked that tuna bread thing they gave us (in the bread-bowl thing in the picture). But their doughnuts and eclair-esque item was nice too!

everbluec: Haha I guess that's one of the perks of lugging a heavy thing around. But it's so bulky to bring everywhere ): I want a cool compact camera like yours for these kind of event things (and self-camming!)

sunkisstiffy aka Tiphanie: Yes of course I remember you! I checked out your blog actually but I really can't maneuver around LJ. Wanted to let you know you can snag photos here if you want. haha. Nope I don't mind. (:
