etherealpeonies: ARCANE

ARCANE: mysterious, secretive...magical.

Hola, today's post will be on Arcane, Ares' faculty outing, party of the year ;) I also went for Athena's FO a few weeks back and of course... i loved ares' FO the most! Aresian pride <3

Warning: Picture heavy post with too many unglam photos, read at own risk ;)

But first.. starting off with #ootd for the night!:)

Specially had this shipped from ASOS for this event! Cos Arcane is such a hard theme to fufil.. but luckily i spotted this on ASOS and thought it fit the theme perfectly!

ASOS Petite Exclusive Skater Dress in Broderie Anglaise

Upclose:

Review:
Bought this when it was on sale on asos hehe, at a discounted price of 60+ (which is not very cheap if you compare it to local blogshops but then again the difference in quality is vast). So anyways! This is a super pretty dress with floral embossments which is of such good quality. Its not sewn on, not printed on as well, when you touch it its like you can feel its slightly 3D, but very subtle. The blue and white contrasts very nicely in my opinion, and the darker thick stripe across the bottom hem adds a modern feel to the dress. It has pleats as well, bonus point:) Oh and of course, side cut outs which is another focus point of the dress:) Its only a subtle one in my opinion, nothing over the top but makes the dress even more unique. I really do like this dress, but i think i'm letting it go cos i got it specially for this event(arcane) and probably won't have much chance to wear it in future:/ email me at etherealpeonies@hotmail.com if you're int! Its tagged UK6 from the petite series, fits me well with slight allowance:)

& just one selca to show fotd, did a simple look with soft smokey eyes being the focus, nothing over the top:)

Whee! Totally excited for my first Ares faculty outing!! The ticket was so gorgeous<3 Its made of some atas textured material somemore, as usual everything Ares is so classy;)

Door gift which was so apt, fizzy candy and bubbles, oh so magical.

My choristors!! Thank you guys for being so supportive and encouraging<3

My class's top photobomber and master of unglam faces(losing only to yy), miss chelzea chua who conveniently hopped into this photo when i was taking it XD

This pingz on the hunt for eug again.. and my tiam sister saved eug from her hahahahha

so she deserves a photo with eug hahahha

& then we headed to the photobooth, which has a name haha so cute, its called Lexie!
I LOVED LOVED LOVED the photobooth its so cool can. They have a wide array of props, and then Lexie prints out the photos for you in a vintagey manner like those japanese sticker photo thingies! And its available in soft copy form on facebook as well, plus the quality of the photos is super good! Two thumbs up for Lexie ;)

& here we are trying very hard to take a PW group photo and then yuanrong decides to crash cos her PW grp not around hahaha.

Tadah, this is how the photos look like after Lexie printed them out! SO NICE RIGHT -hops around-

& since im the one with the camera i'm also demoted to being the photographer of the day as usual hahaha.

yiyang why you do this to us hahaha

A normal nice PW group photo:) But photobombed by eugene at the side lol

Some of my closest girls in S74 :') So blessed to have met all of you<3

& whose finger is that tskkkk

Me and eug! My partner for defying gravity, which everyone said they loved the most out of all the songs we performed:') Thank you eug for being the best duet partner and being so encouraging when im nervous before the performance, or when i forget my lyrics sometimes. I've thoroughly enjoyed myself throughout the preparations for this performance and i think i've learnt so much from it. This is the first solo performance i've ever had, previously it was all performances with choir so it wasn't so scary. Even though i was still SO nervous during the perf iteself and kinda froze on stage but i have no regrets at all, it was such a life changing experience that made everything worthwhile.

To watch out performance click hereeeeeeee!

Me and nikks my brunch/shopping buddy hehehe. Sorry this pic is so dark it NEEDS filters @.@

Lighting in the venue was actually really bad for photo taking in my opinion, like not flattering at all lol. But its okay that doesn't stop my class from selca-ing like no one's business hahahahah

Erm... Xianwang, the girls and... yishin????? What be doing you yi shin hahhahah

& then midway... they turned on the cray party lights which was RED cos red represents ARES<3

& then there were strobe lights and flashing lights and i got dizzy hahahah, im not made for discos/clubbing obviously!!

This han shu... who was late by like an hour and missed my performance!!! TSKKKKK

4/7ers!! And i couldn't stop raving about how awesome my cam's flash is! I mean just look at the quality of the pic and perfect lighting :) It was super dark and this cam did a perfect job, lub max!

One of my fav photos of the night!! The slightly blurred background and orange lights made it so pretty!
Reunited with my dearest LFC i love you guys so much, more than you guys will ever know :')

love yall!! and.. who is that guy who keeps photobombing us tskkkk

Hehe, line up according to height, qties be us! & this han shu is so tall i cant stand it hahaha. I'm wearing like 11cm wedges and she's still so much taller -_- go be model please han shu, or a giraffe is fine too hahaha

Other people take normal pictures like "Smile!! say cheesee" and we be like "OMG GUYS LETS TAKE UNGLAM PHOTOS!!!"

I mean whats lfc without unglam photos hahaha. But it seems like me and seah are the only masters of unglam the rest.. yall need to learn from me and seah!!!

Chay complained that i was too tall that day so i have to bend down when taking pics with her haha
