EVENT: Tea Party with Disney's Golden Minnie‏ and Poh Heng

The month of November marks the ending and the beginning of new things for me and I welcomed the start of it by attending Minnie Mouse's Tea Party, organized by Poh Heng Jewellery! Thank you, my dear BrandStory Babes for the invitation and the ride! :D

(The BrandStory Babes made arrangements for a white cab to pick me up for the event! Thank you, ladies, for being so thoughtful! :D The BrandStory Babes are all very friendly and lovely and I always look forward to events which they are in-charge of. Thank you again, ladies, for always making me feel so welcomed and comfortable! :D)

Minnie's Vivendi, as the party has been named, is a celebration of the collaboration between Poh Heng Jewellery and everyone's favourite mouse, Minnie!

(Well, besides Mickey, of course. Had better put this in lest he gets jealous!)

Minnie was first sketched into our world in 1928 and was initially christened Minerva Mouse. Ever since then, she has left indelible marks in various aspects of our lives, and of course, fashion wasn't spared. Her trademark silhouette, bow, red heels and lusciously long lashes are sources of inspiration to many. And this Christmas, Poh Heng Jewellery wants to being her closer to us with the Minnie Mouse Limited Edition, a collection of 8 sweet and chic charms.

Here are the Minnie treats that greeted us at Poh Heng Jewellery's Orchard Shopping Centre Outlet. And that's Yina, Evonne and our little balloon puppies!

The little Minnie earrings belong to another collection, Baby Mickey & Minnie. They are 22K yellow gold with pink enamel and there's a matching necklace too!

And here are the models showcasing Minnie's styles! All 3 are adorned with the charms, which can double up as pendants too!

Each charm has been skilfully crafted from 18K white gold with diamonds or 22K yellow gold, with interesting contrasts of matte and polished finishes. They bring out the sparkling and charismatic personality of Minnie (And yours too, undoubtedly!) and complements any outfit easily. Maxi dresses or tee and jeans... Minnie's going make you shine like her either way!

"Minnie Mouse is such an incredible influence when it comes to style and fashion, we liken her to the preciousness of the gold from which the collection is crafted - always valuable and yet so trendy. She truly remains today as a powerful fashion icon. The charms double up as trendy keepsakes as well, giving them versatility in addition to the rich meaning that they carry, especially for a gift-giving season like Christmas."
-Ms. Pamela Seow, Marketing and Communications Manager of Poh Heng

A closer look at the charms, which are amalgams of feminineness and classiness!

And of course, I HAD to take photos with dear Juliet! The Minnie Mouse ears are adorable!

And here's how the charms look like altogether and as a bracelet! My favourite is the Minnie Stellar Petite! I like the Rose too because it has such a vintage feel to it! There's always something about a rose and it being gold that makes it so precious! And the Peep-Toe Pumps is really pretty too! It looks incredibly dainty in gold. Which is your favourite? (:

Sweet Rachel sent me a photo of Juliet and I after the event (Thanks dear!). I had to bend down because my 'ears' were blocking the models' faces. For once in my life, I felt really tall. Heh. :D

Thank you for reading and I hope the above photos of Minnie's charms got you started on the coming week with a smile! (:
