Guy of the Week
This week we bring you the man behind StyleQuotient, PAUL MELO. If he looks familiar, you’ve probably seen him roaming the streets of Downtown, Vancouver with his other half (and former Girl of the Week) Sunny Shum, capturing Vancouver’s street style scene. With a great sense of style himself, it’s about time we got him on the other side of the camera lens! A Visual Media Designer who is intelligent and charming yet down-to-earth, meet Paul.

Vote for Nicole!
We might be a little bias because we think our contributor NICOLE SOON is one of the coolest chicks around. She really is though - and that’s why FASHION Magazine picked her to enter The Great Canadian Vlogger Contest. Her task was to shoot a vlog (video blog) on her favourite Canadian fashion designer. She picked Vancouver’s Obakki. Watch her video HERE. The more times you watch, the more votes she gets! Please share it, forward it to a friend, tweet it, and feel free to watch it over and over again. We love you Nicole!!!
