[Travel]: We're Dreaming Of A KL Christmas....

So finally I have been able to put together a trip to Kuala Lumpur that is not the same old boring tour operator list of '10 Things To Do in Malaysia' but one that let's you experience the city like a seasoned travelled and not a tourist. And the bonus of having ME as your guide to the city and beyond

Here goes!




Let's getaway to tropical Malaysia this Christmas! 10 days in magnificent Kuala Lumpur with day trips to Malacca and beyond! You will be exploring the temples and markets of old Kuala Lumpur, the hip night spots, budget shopping and the best of Asian cuisine. And top it all off with New Year Eve celebrations in the heart of Kuala Lumpur! All for Rs 180,000.


Includes:
Return Tickets
Malaysian Visa Fees 
Accommodation 
Airport Transfers
Entry to Tourist Attractions
City Tour of Kuala Lumpur
Day Trip Malacca City
Lots of freebie surprises along the way and a KL Kit with all your travel essentials!



You will be guided by cool, hip young folk who know the city inside out. At Have Love, Will Travel we believe in stretching our dollar as far as possible, but not comprising on comfort and quality. And we like taking the road less travelled, so do not expect the same old ’10 Things To Do in KL’ kinda tour. We will get under the skin of the city and beyond!

[Event]: #MagnumParty15

Did someone say chocolate party? Yep, I am SO there! Lots of decadent chocolate to be consumed and worn was on display at the Magnum Chocolate Party - a high end, dress less to dress up, lots of celebrity spotting kinda affair.

The party showcased the luxury of the Belgian chocolate dessert with chocolate inspired fashion created by some of Pakistan's most creative fashion brands - Shehla Chatoor, Nomi Ansari, Republic by Omar Farooq, Elan by Khadija Shah and Maheen Karim. Fahad Husayn and Ali Xeeshan created chocolate inspired fashion installations for the event.

Frankly, even before the show started I was blown away by the decor. Just stunning! The chocolate displays, the runway, the bar, the ceiling centerpiece were right out of a high end night club.








But the highlight of the night remained the fashion. Brown, especially chocolate brown is not a color that is frequently seen on Pakistani/Asian runways. Let's face it, brown on brown does not really work. However, some of the pieces forced me to rethink  the color brown. However, I did feel that the designers could have been more creative with their 'chocolate' inspired fashion - after all chocolate isn't *just* brown. That said, the designers covered the Magnum brand on all counts - rich and decadent.









Of course, this was also a great time to take selfies because we all looked really good *teehee*








But check this - there was an automated selfie taking mirror at the event too! Yup, a mirror that took selfies for us without the awkward stretching. Hoping to see this at more events by Creative Chaos, That said, I still managed to mess it up.


Pro-tip for the next Magnum Party - keep your eyes open, phone charged and schedule empty. The fun and games will last for a while. Oh also, great grilled chicken sandwiches!
