Hope for 2010

2009-12-19T16:36:00.029+08:00

"Tick, tick, tick...." and the sound goes on and on. You can pretend, deny, imagine or reason with yourself but the seconds are just ticking by and away no matter how hard to try to stop it. Trying to cut running water from a tap, or catching the wind with your bare hands, one word... "impossible". It's impossible to stop time, or turn back time and definitely impossible to hold as much time for you to finish what you WERE SUPPOSE to do this year. Soon, you will be counting down to 2010. One amazing thing is, no matter how bad this year was, or how wonderful this year was to you, you would still want to welcome the new year.

We make arrangements, block down dates, make reservations and look up our phone books and we all hope to welcome the coming 2010 with the ones we care, with the ones we love. Also, it's always the case that we want to look our best and dress our best to share that one special moment we come to ever year.... "10... 9... 8... 7... 6... 5... 4... 3... 2... and finally Happy New Year!"

For some, we celebrate that we have achieved our goals, some would sulk and regret that things did not turn out the way it was suppose to. Happy or grieving, 2010 should always be a new hope to everyone. Collage couture would sincerely request to have that opportunity to usher in the new year together with you. Casual or trendy, elegant or stylish, whatever or whichever you would like to appear for the coming new year, Collage Couture is always on the hunt to help you look & appear the way you would love to.

The Season of Hope

2009-12-12T16:32:00.000+08:00

When you ask someone, “Which is your favorite holiday?” I bet you that 9 out of 10 of them would excitedly answer you, “CHRISTMAS!”

Christmas to many is all about presents & beautiful lighting decorations. To some, it has a deeper meaning as a season of love & hope. Some, it’s a seasons to do with their belief & stories of baby Jesus being born to this world. To children, it’s when Santa checks his good list, children waking up on Christmas morning finding mountains of presents from Santa under the Christmas tree. Again, to some it may just be another holiday to party. Whatever it may mean to you, the Christmas season is always the best reason to go shopping!

I would like to suggest these 2 pieces for your partying holiday. It’s very elegant, sexy but at the same time it has a dash of youthfulness to it. Not TOO MUCH... it's just enough... to look attractive.

Holiday Mood

It was probably 1am in the morning when i heard a familiar tune ringing next to my ear. It was one of my many favorite songs from Wang Lee Hom. I turned around hoping to find a tall, handsome, charming man ready to sing his love to me, instead i heard a loud crashing sound roaring through the dark!~ *shoot*~ My sleepy body turned so hard that everything on the table next to my bed went crashing to the floor! IT WAS A DREAM?!?! Unwillingly, i stretched my hand out to pick up my phone, devastated to realize that the beautiful ringing tune came from my phone. "This better be good enough to have spoiled my special moment with prince charming!".

Straining my sleepy eyes to read the SMS on my phone, "Hey moi, my boss gave me 2 rooms at the Genting World Club & 2 Genting cards worth RM200 for us to spend!!! Will call you in the morning to arrange our trip ! good night!"

Actually... not half bad. Business mix with pleasure. I thought that if we could "spice" up the photo taking of the wardrobe, you guys would definitely enjoy browsing "Collage Couture", this is literally blessing knocking at our door. Genting, here we come!

We have decided to deny ourselves with the comfort of our car and insist on a cheaper mode of transportation... RM8.90 per way from 1 Utama, all the way to skyway cable car. Honestly speaking, it really isn't that bad. The only "discomfort" we had really was to drag the bags of clothes from "Collage Couture" all the way.

Home --> car --> bus --> cable car --> halfway round Genting --> hotel room

And the cycle repeated... only this time... backwards...

When we finally arrived at our luxurious 5 star & FREE hotel room., we delayed no more, unpacked our bags of "Collage Couture" fashion and started right away!

It was a professional start! Makeup, studio concept and styling strategy, i mean look at the mess we left for the 5 star housekeeping!

Getting the right dress was not the difficult part, Ling has the right figure that would fit into any clothing under the sun; nor is getting the hair & makeup done. The challenging part was to pose the right way & snap the right shots to deliver professional looking photographs. The both of us really did had a good taste of the ' humble pie'!

*Our highest respect to all the fashion photographers & models around the world!*

It was kind of awkward initially, but as we tried more & more shots, it gotten a 'wee' bit easier each time. We started shooting in the hotel room, we couldn't even bare to imagine going outside where people could see. However, if this would "spice" up our blog for your viewing pleasure, consider this sacrifice of ours... worthy.

Ling had fiercely warned me to not take shots of her face.... initially^.^

Then it gotten easier to face the camera with dark shades covering half her face...^.^...

I've learned one other thing, from the many arts & knowledge of photography, and that is the imagination. It was rather tiring to have to keep seeing images in your head, and the challenging part to was paint that image out live.

Getting the dark shades off wasn't easy, but i convinced her that revealing half of her face wasn't going to be that noticeable. We were making progress here... ^.^

"Try turning more towards the camera, it's really not that noticeable", i know i know... i lied.... but it worked!

After a while, the whole "i can't show my face on the internet!" issue was over. Ling was beginning to really enjoy, and before we started to realize, we were discussing& throwing posing opinions all over the hotel room. We were.... enjoying it... much much more than we thought that we would.
