Since Christmas is drawing near and you may be getting ready for a fabulous party and you may already have the dress (you are so welcome)… what about the rest? I am so lucky to know so many people who are excellent at their jobs. And I have high-lighted a few talented people who can help you get ready for the holidays and your life.

Hair. Doug Styles. Need I say more? He has been doing my hair for years and I think that he is the best in the city. If you need a good blow-out ask for the Victoria Secret Special. Union Salon: 604-732-8282.

Make-up. Karin Shoji Make Up. She teaches classes, she works in film and tv and does an amazing job making people look beautiful. AND everytime I go somewhere special she does my make up so that I feel fabulous. Really, she is the best and super nice.

Lashes. Karen Olson. So ever since my lovely friend Erin showed up one day with the most beautiful long lashes, I have been addicted to lash extensions myself. It’s hard to get them to look natural and long, but Karen is the best and she is Vancouver’s best kept secret. I never want to see my real lashes again. Karen: 604-961-6280

Pretty Nails and Toes. Amanda at Spamobile. I always talk about how awesome it is to get my nails done at 8 in the morning before Stella goes to preschool. Yes, that’s right she comes to my house. Best ever. Amanda: 778-893-3420

Trainer. One of my most favourite clients recommended Simone to me and I have never looked back. Simone has the ability to be motivating and enthusiastic without being one of those “people”. I look forward to our workouts because she is just so darn sure that I am going to have a bikini body by summer. This picture below is Simone in her amazing new coat and boots that I happily found for her. www.eatplaylovefitness.com 

Stella. Most amazing 3 year old. She’s pretty booked up though…
