COMYNS THE WORLD'S BEST SILVERSMITH FROM ENGLAND AND UNRESERVED THE WORLD'S BEST BIGSHEET LIFESTYLE MAGAZINE AND THE MALAY MAIL HOSTED A FLOWER-INFUSED AFTERNOON TEA AT COMYNS BOUTIQUE AT THE PAVILION KL YESTERDAY

Around 60 rich tai-tai attended Comyns afternoon tea hosted by Comyns and Unreserved magazine which is now available with The Malay Maul as it is no longer linked to Malaysia Reserve since the newspaper has been sold. So get your Unreserved magazine with The Malay Mail every Friday fortnightly or buy it on other days at only RM 5 at good book shops.

Another sponsor the fab skincare company Khiel's whose Facial Fuel series is a best-seller for obvious reasons!

The high point was a DIY flower arrangement session conducted by Margaret and Meng the florists!

Each table was provided with all sorts of flowers and an empty bowl with sponge. We unleashed our floral creativity and arranged the blooms to our own liking as we could take home our completed floral masterpieces!

Of course my flower arrangement won Best in Show as usual since I am an ikebana champion and possess an artistic eye and creative fingers. Some of the floral arrangements created by the ladies were dreadful!

But then, not everyone is blessed by Jesus and Buddha and Shiva like me!

The occasion was the launch of Padma, the lotus set of bowls crafted in sterling silver by Comyns. Too bad we were not given a Padma bowl! But the pricey glass bowl we were given with the flowers were good enough!

This was the first time I had such an experience and I enjoyed it thoroughly. Thanks Comyns and Unreserved Magazine!

Datin Reiss Tiara removes her shades after I accused her of having her eyes operated on to make them as big as mine which was done by Jesus Christ and Buddha. So she removed them indignantly to prove her eyes were intact!

Ladies with their creations

It was a wome's affair but since I am as good if not better than any woman I know except Virgin Mary, Kuanyin and my sainted mother, I was the only male invited
