Yesterday morning we were thrilled to see that EDGE Magazine published a lengthy interview I did with them last week around how to choose fashionable sunglasses and take care of your vision at the same time.
EDGE is the largest network of local Gay, Lesbian Bisexual and Transgender (GLBT) news and entertainment portals in the world, serving 500,000 readers from a variety of metropolitan areas around the United States and beyond.
Unfortunately, they don’t currently serve Detroit, but we’re hoping to change that with this story.
Check out the full article here (it’s pretty cool):

We also made EDGE’s photo spread on cool sunglasses, sending them a pair of the same Ray-Ban 3025 aviators that Megan Fox has popularized.
Special thanks to David Andrusia, the author of the article, and the entire EDGE staff for being so great to work with.
