When MuchMusic launched in 1984, Jeanne was front and centre, anchoring “Rockflash” segments. In 1985, weary of a constant diet of rock n’ roll, Jeanne jumped at the chance to host “FashionTelevision”, a program that brought fashion, beauty and lifestyle to the über chic masses. Today, “FashionTelevision” is the station’s most widely syndicated show, with viewers in more than 120 countries around the world.

Always looking to broaden her creative horizons, Jeanne is currently a judge on Canada’s Next Top Model and editor-in-chief of luxe lifestyle publications FQ Magazine and Sir.

Stacey McKenzie has worked the runway for many top designers, including Alexander McQueen, Betsey Johnson and Jean-Paul Gautier. She has posed for such famous photographers as Richard Avedon, Ellen Von Unwerth, Patrick Demarchelier and Bryan Adams.

Stacey McKenzie was the first black model to host MTV’s “Stylissimo”; the show aired in Europe, Africa and Asia. Soon after, Stacey was discovered by Luc Besson for his sci-fi film “The Fifth Element”, where she played a quirky stewardess alongside Bruce Willis and Chris Tucker. Most recently Stacey became a judge and model coach/mentor on “Canada’s Next Top Model”. Her current projects include teaching others the necessary skills of becoming a top model through her company, Stacey McKenzie’s Walk This Way.

Product review: Lise Watier's Newest Perfume Desirable!

I got the chance to review Lise Watier's newest fragrance Desirable! As I opened my package I was quite pleased to see this sophisticated bottle with the dangling necklace attached simple and pretty I thought to myself. As I sprayed it on I noticed a heightened floral aroma that tickled my nose.

As the perfume began to settle in I picked up on the sweet apple, honey osmanthus and sandalwood scents on my skin. I also tried the fragrance on a few of my girlfriends and to our surprise the perfume smells differently on each one of us! Some girls were all floral, some you could smell more the wild berries scents and magnolia while others picked up more of the musk and sandalwood undertones.

I give Lise Watier's newest scent 2 thumbs up, I love how it starts off with a punch of floral aromas and then gently settles in to your skin to create a unique scent!
I agree as well as my girlfriends that Lise Waiter's Desirable is a must have to add to your perfume collection you will like what you smell!!

You can get this scent at your local Shoppers Drug Mart.
You can also check out the website at www.areyoudesirable.com

This website is interactive where you can watch 4 men talk about what is desirable to them, I find it quite cute!
