Clean..Crisp.. Bland? NEVER!

As time progresses things evolve a tadpole into a frog...a boy into a man...and of course a person's style. Lately I have found myself very much into shades, rather then colours and patterns. With such an evolution I find myself maturing in taste. I have always been a fan of classic cars and architecture but now it has become an obsession.

For this transition I would like to thank the days of classic leading men such as James Dean. His talent and attire was never flashy or overly attention grabbing, his presence and charm spoke volumes alone. This throw back to a greater era makes my distaste for men who don't put effort into their appearance even stronger. I have always said a true test to a man's presence is if he can grab attention simply wearing a white t-shirt and jeans(a great fit of course).

The girl and the zip code that only spells out trouble is coming back for it's 3rd season.

Stay tuned to see what trouble Shenae Grimes and the rest of the cast of 90210 get up to. As long as Annie doesn't kill anyone else, I think Shenae's character is in for smooth sailing.

SHAY EDELL

Shay began working in the Fashion Industry at age 16.

eOmi song of the weekend!

NO- Time Like The Present For An Introduction.

No is a very strong word,in fact it was my first as a child. Throughout my life I heard the word over and over again. As years went on my parents began pairing it with other words to make it become more encouraging.

With eOmi I want to help you reach your goals. I will do so by using my networking and client relations skills to build up your brand, your project or even yourself. Working as partners we will deflate the negative meaning of NO and pair it with words to express your brands individuality and create buzz....NO one is like you, NObody can do the things you can, NO goal is too big or too small.
