Melody Ehsani

Honestly, I am her biggest fan!!! She is a very creative designer, from jewelry to shoes. I just love her jewelry collection. Her collections have been worn by Keri Hilson, Rihanna, Erykah Badu, Alicia keys, Angela Simmons to even Nas. She is amazing at what she does. Definitely unshakable!

I love when a woman is fearless!! This always seems to inspire me. Sometimes we get stuck in following the norm, but Melody she seems to follow her heart. Which I truly respect and admire. She is a woman that is fulfilling her destiny. I just love her!!

Anyhow, she just finished shooting the look book for the new collection and of course it speaks for itself.

Heeless boots..

I have seen these unusual boots in photo shoots and of course on Victoria Beckham. You gotta wonder how uncomfortable these are to wear. Designer Antonio Berardi first brought out his heeless shoes at his show in Paris. Models have fallen down in shows before - Naomi Campbell when modelling for Vivienne Westwood most famously, and more went down, domino-style, in the Prada show. For a mere $6000 you too can be walking on your tippy toes in a pair of patent leather knee high boots.

Love us some Lady Gaga

So young, yet so beyond her time. Showing her fashionista ways right out of the gate, she knows how to really mesh her eccentric fashion ways alongside her music. Her outfits are as original as her lyrics. She plays with colour, make up and hair. She takes risks, gotta love a girl like that!

See her next at the 2009 MTV Video Music Awards on Septmber 13, 2009. Guaranteed to be in a conversation worthy ensemble!

WE LOVE RIHANNA!

Check out our girl working it hard on the cover of Italian Vogue. I think Rihanna's evolution in style from around the way girl to haute couture with a side of old school Grace Jones works well on her. Not too many can pull off her risky fashion ways.

Fun day at the beach

Can't get enough of Becks!

Get your money right ladies!

If you are Canadian, and you haven't at least paused watching 'Til' Debt Do Us Part' you are missing out! Gail Vaz-Oxlade has several years of money management experience. She has helped hundreds of people who don't understand money or budgeting and putting them back on track with their goals.

Money is a very tricky thing. Not everyone is naturally versed on how to spend, how to save, and how to invest. Most of us go to professionals for guidance. Gail operates on a very grass roots level. She wants you to understand the money YOU are spending. Watching the experiments you can't help but be tempted to try it out for yourself. She is a realist, and doesn't believe in living beyond your means. I love when she tells unsuspecting couples or singles 'If you continue on this path, in 5 years you will owe..'. As a working adult you don't always think of things that way. For most, you continue to endlessly pay bills, content with the fact that they will never stop..so what's another monthly payment. Many people feel as though money will always come, so will bills so live in the moment. There is such a fine line with budgeting for the future and still enjoying your life present day.

Gail's latest book focuses on women and money. Here is a quote from her book:

'What this book will do, if you are a willing participant in the process, is help you to uncover your personal feelings and attitudes toward money. It will provide you with information and proven techniques for positive money management. It will be a guide to what you must think about in order to stay on an even keel and keep money in its right place in your life. It will ask you many questions that you must answer for yourself, if you want to discover how to achieve financial health. By answering these questions, you will make some discoveries. You will find that money management is easy. You will learn new ways of dealing with money. You will achieve the results you want. '

Til Debt Do Us Part returns for its eighth season on Friday, September 11 2009 @ 9pm ET/6pm PT

The Finn Lounger

The rich dark finish on its solid-ash frame, this is a substantial sofa alternative that can also double as a bed for visiting friends. It is filled with feathers and foam. Retails for $1099 US.

Interesting fact: It can hold up to 800lbs distributed evenly!

Naked Truth

The only way to prevent smears and smudges (also known as raccoon eyes) is to use waterproof mascara. But the downside of mascara that sticks to lashes all day is that it's tricky to remove at night. Philosophy understands that dilemma; their new "Just Release Me" makeup remover makes our evening routine so much simpler. Formulated with all-natural ingredients like aloe, chamomile, and cucumber extracts, this mild remover breaks down even the toughest makeup without any irritation. Plus, there are no synthetic dyes, fragrances, or parabens, making it safe for contact-lens wearers and those with very sensitive skin. The product is oil-free so it won't cause breakouts, and the gentle blend actually leaves the face and eye area feeling cool, refreshed, and mascara-free.

Philosophy Just Release Me Dual-Phase Oil-Free Makeup Remover, $18 at Philosophy.com and Sephora.com.

Watch out for Vlada Roslyakova

Roslyakova, who hails from Siberia and made her runway debut at Yohji Yamamoto's S/S 04 show, is famous for her doll-like face, wide-set blue eyes, and shape-shifter-like ability to transform in front of the camera. She has appeared on the cover of countless influential magazines, and starred in Dolce & Gabbana campaigns, photographed by such industry heavyweights as Craig McDean, Patrick Demarchelier, and Steven Klein, plus Christian Lacroix has called Roslyakova his muse (she has closed his last four haute couture shows). Considering the company she keeps, it is no wonder that our ethereal MOD knows a thing or two about putting herself together and looking incredibly chic, both on the job and off the clock!




Definitely one to watch!
