The Gingerbread House Competition and Auction at the Museum of Vancouver was a great night out. I bid on a house designed by Busby Perkins & Will Architects and won it!

This is the house I bid on.

Here's the house designed by McFarlane Green Biggar Architecture + Design Inc

This one is by Eastside Design & Solus Decor
Here is my house in its new home, on the bookshelf underneath the Christmas Decoration.



We also checked out the Ravishing Beasts exhibition while we were at the Museum of Vancouver, which was pretty amazing. We have been on a hunt (not literally) for a taxidermy deer head for a while.


Anne Pearson from Vancouver Special had the most amazing Mondrian nails.

Speaking of the beautiful people, here are a few photos from the John Casablancas Institute Staff Christmas Party. I lecture there sometimes, and thought it was extremely generous of them to take us all out for a fabulous dinner at Opus. I wore my Jason Matlo sequined dress but stupidly didn’t get any photos of myself on the night.

I guess I wasn't surprised that everyone looked so fantastic...its a hair, makeup, and fashion school!

I don't know everyone is this pic, but Foster Eastman from Axis hair salons is the one in the back and red shirt, and Lori, sitting next to him, is one of the presidents at JCI Institute.

The private room we were in was beautiful!
