It's my party....

SwissTwist asked for it, so here are my party dresses......

The dress that started it all - my pink and chocolate halterneck with sparkles.

Been seen at:

This is one of my favourites & it can be strapless as well.

Been seen at:

Pink & White 3 quarter dress

I love his dress because you can dress it up or down and it is a very flattering style.

Been seen at:

• My friends wedding 2007
• The Woman's Prestige Awards 2008
• AC's Bachelorette Party 2009

3 Quarter handkerchief dress from Morgan

I felt like Pretty Woman when Alex bought this for me, he took me to Sandton City and said I could pick any dress I liked.

This is also a very flattering style thanks to the ruching around the waist and the lovely handkerchief shirt.

Been seen at:

• A cocktail party - 2008
• A product launch at work 2010
• A 21st birthday party - 2010

This was my first bridesmaids dress.

Bought it from Edgars for R450. It has a lace covering with beadwork and an open back - the A line shape is very flattering.

Been seen at:

• My friend's wedding - 2005
• A friends sister's wedding when I was the videographer - 2006
• Afrikaans Music Awards 2008
• A product launch at work 2009

This dress doesnt fit me anymore, but I keep it because I like it & hope that 1 day maybe I will wear it again..

It is a slim fitted black dress that has a slight almost "snakeskin" pattern in a velvety material.

It has an open back with some vertical straps and a slit up the back.

Been seen at:

• A boyfriends year end function - 2005

This red sparkle halterneck dress always make me feel like a Hollywood star on the red carpet.

The colour is a deep red that darkens into a very dark blood red (seen slightly on the left side in the pic)

I get lots of compliments on it.

Been seen at:

• The People Magazine Crystal Awards - 2008
• A friends Year end function - 2009

The least favourite of all my dresses

The material was a shiny parachute type material that made me sweat so much in the Cape Town heat.

Seen at:

• Wedding - Bridesmaids dress in 2008.

Red satin strapless dress with removable chocolate sash

Seen at:

• Wedding - Bridesmaid dress for my best friend - 2009

I love this dress - fell in love with it and decided not to buy it because it was a bit pricey, but couldnt stop thinking about it and saved my money and bought it.

#16: A photo that has your favourite colour in it
I am sure you have gathered by now that I love Pink - this photo was me being funny because my hired dress for the 60s party was shorter than I realised.
But how stunning is the colour?

#17: A totally quirky photo

This is a tradition of mine - I love taking pics of people's feet and then we put the camera on the floor and get a pic of our faces.

#18: Your perfume/cologne

Princess by Vera Wang - and it comes in a heart bottle! :-)

#19: Your weakness

My kitty cats - I will do anything for them

Uniquely Me - Purple Lips & Perfect Smiles

Today I would like to introduce a Blogger who is quite new to the blogging community - but you would never say it!

This lady has a great variety of topics on her blog and a very upbeat outlook on life. I love reading her blog and I am sure you will too!

Say a Big Hi to Claudz at Purple lips and Perfect smiles

This is what Claudz had to say:

1: Seeing as you are recently engaged - tell us about your dream wedding?

I want a wedding where everyone has a memorable weekend! No standing around waiting, no running out of stuff. The band must keep playing all night (yes we want a live band in an ideal situation). We love our diverse friends and want them all to be there, for an entire weekend of fun, memory making, lots of laughter and plenty of photos. People must talk about the great spirit of friendship for years!

2: What made you decide to start blogging and what do you love most about it?

I've always wanted to be writer and I thought of the idea of blogging long ago. But I never knew what to blog about. Then I saw the first Photo Challenge (hosted by Krystal) and it just went from there. I love the sense of community! It's so much fun interacting with new, interesting people. I also like getting my thoughts out there.

3: If you were on deathrow - what would your final 3 course meal be?

Tough one as I would want all my favourites! I would want a sushi starter with plenty of salmon with a glass of ice cold bubbly. The second course, a beef fillet steak with a red wine jus and on the side, roast vegetables, roast potato and a big creamy pasta (hey, it's deathrow, carbs are ok!) and a side of Thai Green Chicken Curry. Dessert? Chocolate done 5 ways! Dark chocolate mousse with Amarula liquor, Chocolate and Strawberry tart, Chocolate Ganache Cake, Choc Chilli Fondant and finally, three way chocolate sorbet. After this meal, I may die from over indulgence!

4: If you were on death row - what would your guilty crime be?

Crimes against fashion!

5: Name your favourite cocktail

Mojito or Cosmo (if made without orange)

6: If you could live in any city in the world - where would it be?

Barcelona or New York

7: What is your all time favourite movie?

Reality Bites

8: Name 1 thing your boyf loves about you

That I said yes when he proposed! He loves my legs and my enthusiasm for travel

9: What would your dream job be?

Travel Writer

10: Jacob or Edward?

I love dogs so I will say Jacob.

I love this: Phew! Maybe edit question 3's answer to "anything and everything"
