FASHION BRUTALITY

Men have to be men. The key is how to be manly, but in fashion. Trickey yes;Impossible no. I have chosen a few items that are stylish, in fashion, and primed to whip some mucho darriere. Fine haberdashery is a luxury that all men should have an opportunity to enjoy, even the average Joe. So for Joes out there, get your couture education while feeling the machismo. Two of my favorites:

Prada Linea Rossa Boots in Black $442

And of course, shades are a must and remember D.O.U.G. (Don't Own Ugly Glasses). So here are the sleekest and manliest peeper covers for the winter.

Bentley Leather Goggles $185

Shades of Grey

Hey ladies and Gents. Tis I, Everson Grey. Let me introduce myself and give you a basic outlook of how my mind works in the world of fashion. I am an everyday Joe who likes things such as beer, cars, women, music and sports. I am the type of guy who will wear an NFL jersey every Sunday until football season is over and them move on to a backwards hat and a Red Sox jersey for summer. Flashy? No. But I have a good eye for what I think is top notch in the world of everyday Joes. For instance, I consider myself to be a bit of a golfer. Most of my pals don't but that's another story. I go through sunglasses like underwear when it comes to finding the right pair to knock out the glare. BUT! I have finally struck gold.

These beauties are a pair of Maui Jim's Ho'okipa. Sounds nice and look fantastic. They wrap around nicely under the hat, block tons of glare and bring out the color of the grass and sky like a glimpse into heaven. Go ahead to Mauijim.com and check them out for yourself. You can customize the types of lens color as well. Note to girl gazers: They dont hide your eyes! You can still see the baby blues behind those shades.

Monday Photo Shoot: The LOVE Famliy

Today I had a photo shoot with an amazing family...THE LOVE'S. Bishop Lester Love & Pastor Fran Love called me to do their makeup for a photo shoot for a gospel magazine. Sorry guys but I don't remember the name of the magazine. The pics that was taken will also be used for other things that Bishop Love may need for next year like billboards and flyer's.

Daniel was the photographer, Benny was the coordinator and Kenneth Grant & Ashley Jones was in charge of hair. And of course MOI took care of makeup. Pastor Fran got two makeup looks and I kept the girls pretty much the same just changed Joy makeup a little.

It was a great shoot can't wait to see the professional pics but below are a few fun shots from my iPHONE.
