Dream Come True

(Let me just clarify that this picture has nothing to do with this entry, it's just that it felt really awkward eating while these men were looking at me like this. Haha)

When we were in Singapore last summer, I met and (actually) spoke to a French dude from, well, France. I met him while we were having breakfast and we had a little chitchat about the weather and about his trip as I am, by nature, very talkative (then, I hadn't realized his nationality). I noticed his very thick accent though, but found it rude to ask where he's from (no, that's not weird)

So anyway, we were having a great time buttering our toasts when Ptr. John (who was part of the entourage) decided to join us and ask him what I couldn't. To my surprise, he told us he's French. And this is how it went down... (For your benefit, dialogues are in italics)

Aftermath: Sophie Paris Soiree

Sophie Paris

I know I should blogged about Fashionable Saturday weeks ago, but hey, better late than never, right?

Saturday morning, I went to attend Sophie Paris' Fashion and Beauty Soiree (yes, in broad daylight, something I've never tried before). I was a little late because I couldn't go without lunch--COULDN'T! But I was excited to be with all the Sophie ladies from various parts of the country. It was great that despite being late, I managed to be just in time for the fashion show / a.k.a bag showcase.

Sophie Paris Handbags

Sophie Paris really has enough goods to boast! And I found my eyes attracted to a beauty that I'll probably be purchasing in a few weeks (granted that I get my check from my online employer soon). Anyway, we brought home amazing gifts from Sophie Paris: a handbag, a casual dress and perfume.

I also had a chance to meet the lovely Bb. Pilipinas 2nd Runner-up, Ms. Ali Forbes, who not only graced us with her presence, but also enchanted us with her singing. Also to note, Ms. Forbes won Ms. Sophie 2011. Just proves she's a Sophie girl through and through!

Overall, I had a wonderful time with the ladies. Sure enough, I made the right decision of eating before I left home as it ended later than planned. If you're interested in becoming a Sophienista, check out Sophie Paris Business Centers near you.
