December Events Calendar

I know it's only November right now, but it's also that time of year when social calendars fill up quickly. In between the gift-buying and the merry-making, make a little time for these fun and fashionable events. Mark these events on your calendars, readers!

CRAVE Vancouver and Operation Style Present the "Stylista Contest"



Sometimes it takes a fresh pair of eyes to see all the possibilities in our own closets. From now until Monday November 30th, 2009 submit a photo of yourself in your go-to outfit to CRAVE Vancouver. One winner will be selected and announced at the "What's Hot for the Holidays Party" at Boudoir on December 2nd, 2009, at 8pm. The prize includes a one-on-one closet detox session with the consultants behind Operation Style and a one-hour personal styling session; both sessions are worth $700.00 in total.

To enter:
  1. Snap a picture of your favorite go-to outfit, answer the questions below, and email everything to arpen@craveparty.com. Once it has been approved and has been uploaded under "Photos" on the Facebook event page, you can begin the remainder of the process.

    Questions:
    • Describe your outfit
    • Describe your current style
    • What would you like to revamp about your style?
    • Who is your style icon?

  2. Have your friends vote for your picture by clicking "Like" on your photo.
The top three finalists will be determined by votes and one winner will be announced at the event. All three finalists must be at the event. Contest closes Monday November 30th, 2009, at 11:59pm.

  11. great events! I really want to go to the gas town shop but like you said, with the holiday social calendar filling up, it's hard to make time for stuff. There also seems to be so many craft fairs lately - there's also Shiny Fuzzy Muddy at Heritage hall in dec too!

    Re - riding; you should give it a try if you ever get a chance - it's tons of fun and great exercise.
