Today we’re featuring Headbanger Accessories creative director Shayla from Oakland, California as our Bombshell of the Day:
She says, “ I would say [my style is] Modern Vintage Chic.”
“… I never go with the trends I just BANG in what I want.”
” Fashion for me is a feeling .”
” Sometimes I wanna wear my stilettos, sometimes I wanna rock my sneakers, sometimes I wanna lay back in my beenie slightly hanging off the back of my head, it’s just how I’m feeling. And whatever I wear, I feel sexy.”
” I lovvvvee thrift shopping just because you never see the same thing twice and it’s a rush for me. I have a storage full of clothes that I’m going to eventually turn into a store, but I must say I’m pretty attached to my vintage jackets.”
” I admire Grace Jones for her edge, Alexander McQueen for his risk, Chanel for her class and sophistication. But I just like to create my own and be an influencer.”
“I like to ” Rock to my own beat , but never off beat.”"
” I’m the one on the outside of the box not creating my own space. My expression through my fashion, hair, tattoos is what makes me happy, what’s makes it easy for me to breathe.”
” As Creative Director for Headbanger Accessories my fashion sense allows me to always bring new and innovative ideas to the table. I always say ” I go in with a BANG , Come out with a BANG , Stand still with a BANG …. I’m just that….BANG “”
I love it all! Just wish some of the pix were a little clearer. If you like, follow Shayla @ShaylaBang1 on Instagram, and check out her accessories at HeadBangerAccessories.com.

December 3, 2012 1:17 pm
I like her style but I wish some of the photos were clearer. It’s great to see the variety & that she doesn’t rely on her body & looks just as sexy covered up opposed to short & tight.

December 3, 2012 2:12 pm
Very nice….Rihanna should have stayed on this level of styling. Great job! Not too over the top!
December 3, 2012 2:22 pm
YAY my Shay! I was gonna submit for you eventually. lol! #bombshell #duh
December 3, 2012 2:30 pm
shayla is hands down one the most fashion-forward individuals i’ve ever come across. her ability to put patterns and textures together is unmatched. there aren’t very many people with the natural talent to do so. not only has she been this fashionable, she can help to bring it out of you too. go shayla go!
December 3, 2012 2:46 pm
SHAYLA IS THE TRUE MEANING OF A TRENDSETTER “someone who popularizes a new fashion and takes it to another level—-> Thats Shayla Jamerson!!!” She not only sets trends she can also bring the inner BANG out of anyone. I TAKE MY HAT OFF TO THIS BEAUTIFUL WOMAN KEEP BANGING ON ‘EM :)
December 3, 2012 2:59 pm
LOVE, LOVE, LOVE! Love the hair & style, I dig.
December 3, 2012 3:00 pm
LOVE, LOVE, LOVE! Love the hair & style, I dig.
December 3, 2012 3:02 pm
Though not my style, this woman definetly has STYLE!! I adore the red pendulum top and blue pants!
December 3, 2012 3:07 pm
I wish her pictures were better quality but she definitely has style and is drop dead gorgeous
December 3, 2012 3:22 pm
I’m throwing all kinds of flagrant shade because I sensed she was doing the mostest even before she started in on the whole BANG monologue. Then again maybe I’m jealous because I’m old and she favors Rihanna? I’ll ask my shrink. In the meantime, the only ‘fit I liked was the bowtie/jeans.
December 3, 2012 3:22 pm
I like her! She’s the bomb!
December 3, 2012 3:38 pm
Everybody already said what i wanted to say, but this would represent the best of Rihanna.
Blessings
December 3, 2012 3:40 pm
She’s serving CHOLA-realness in the pic with the beanie, however I dig it, lol. Her vibe is pretty fab.
December 3, 2012 3:40 pm
Okay sooo is there something wrong with me cuz all this bang bang bang references are giving me the tranny vibe in addition to other features Tranny or not tho I do like her/his looks most of them!
December 3, 2012 3:42 pm
Love her style!!
December 3, 2012 3:43 pm
hmm..something appears off about this. definitely different but hmmm

December 3, 2012 3:51 pm
Love the look on the couch/chair!
December 3, 2012 4:06 pm
I consider her a bombshell because she’s a super thrifter and I love to thrift. I would absolutely rock some of her pieces!
December 3, 2012 4:28 pm
Great pieces, but I’m distracted by all of the mirror pictures with that stupid bear phone case! Ugh! Please ask a friend to snap some shots before submitting.
December 3, 2012 4:28 pm
Shayla is amazing!! Love her!
December 3, 2012 4:29 pm
I love her hair. And I love that all of her looks are body-con boring.
But my head hurts, I feel like this girl has clobbered me over the head with how unique she is. She is definitely trying hard to make us realize that she is innovative and in case we didn’t pick up on it from the photos, she shoves it down our throats in her description.
Yep, call me a hater but that is my 2 cents
December 3, 2012 4:32 pm
@ Indigo RIIIIGHT! LOVE IT.. She is doing Rhiana betta than Rhiana!!!
Bombshell you are working your look, keep it up….
December 3, 2012 4:33 pm
this is what you call…..BE YOUR OWN PERSON..Stop reading these blogs walking round here looking like clones. #Werk
December 3, 2012 4:39 pm
This is definitely one of my favorite BOMBSHELLS!!!!
December 3, 2012 4:39 pm
She’s fresh…I like that she’s in her own lane. I would live for better quality photos. I think everyone who is serious in fashion whether blogging, vlogging, owning a boutique or simply showcasing their style needs to INVEST in a quality camera or a quality photographer. She gave me my life with the herringbone chain and hoops!! Checking out the site now.:)
December 3, 2012 4:48 pm
Loving her style but I’d have to strongly disagree with her ” I never follow trends” statement. I clearly see some trends in her pix. One of my pet peeves is when ppl claim to not follow trends but in all actuality they do!!!
But we’ll done miss thang. Bang! Bomb! Boom!!!
December 3, 2012 4:49 pm
I love her!!!!!!
December 3, 2012 4:49 pm
Shayla takes accessorizing to a whole other level…She is gorge, super stylish and very humble…Loves her!
December 3, 2012 4:51 pm
Thank you soooo much @jamie @miss mieka @cherie in the d @indigo like for real I appreciate your words. I just try to do me and I love all those who are individuals. Everyone is not going to love it or like it , but you just gotta know who you are and look forward :) @Sigh your not a hater babe , it’s just your opinion :) @Choco lol lmao hey heyy got my daddy’s cheekbones now … Lol no tranny , but I do love them gaysssss :) appreciate your opinion though, I start crackin up when I read your comment lol
December 3, 2012 4:56 pm
Great style….but I’d have to strongly disagree with her ” I never follow trends” statement. I def see some trends. It irks me when ppl claim to not follow trends when in fact they are.
But she is working it. Bang! Boom! Bomb!
December 3, 2012 4:56 pm
She is giving me Halle Berry circa Boomrang tease with that hair. Love it!
December 3, 2012 5:24 pm
A couple misses, but her style is cute.
December 3, 2012 5:24 pm
I lovesss me some Shayla, she represents the bay very well. Her style is like no other. Very cool chick!!!
December 3, 2012 5:32 pm
I love her hair!
December 3, 2012 5:42 pm
Sorry, I meant NOT bodycon boring! She is obviously not body con boring
December 3, 2012 6:11 pm
@Sigh, I agree she’s a fashionable woman but she lost me a bit in her description. “I like to Rock to my own beat, but never off beat.” Hmm, Grace Jones, McQueen and Chanel were all a bit offbeat… hence their unmatched uniqueness, which elevated them to the level of trailblazers, masters of creative thought and process – legends. Hence if you honestly rock out to your own percussion and string section, then by definition you’re non-conventional and neither a conformist – i.e. a bit offbeat. Oh, and I’m not hating either :)
December 3, 2012 6:38 pm
Gorg!!! Loves her and her look. Best FB in a while.
December 3, 2012 6:56 pm
One: gorgeous; two: style is so fab; three: there aren’t too many fashionistas in Oakland! Love all of her looks! Epitome of personal style!
December 3, 2012 7:29 pm
@GW, I kind of read that as she marches to her own beat, and pretty much stays on it.
I do hope she does open that store though, she knows what’s she’s doing.
The only thing she needs now are some friends who can take photos. The mirror pics have to go :)
December 3, 2012 7:56 pm
@kat lmao Pwahahahaha
I’m sorry !!! I’m sorry I will invest in some friends with cameras lol but dang I love Teddy … *walking away head down , calling my BFF with a camera ” lol
…..
December 3, 2012 7:58 pm
@olivia @ellebelle Awwwwwww* xoxoxo *thank you sooooooooo much ;) means a lot , seriously
December 3, 2012 7:59 pm
@Olivia @ellebelle awwwwww my loved that’s so sweet of you. Thank you soooooool much xoxoxo
December 3, 2012 8:04 pm
Cute! She definitely has style!
December 3, 2012 8:04 pm
@Sigh your comment was cute:) xoxo @GW maybe I worded it wrong lol I was just saying ” I Rock to my own Beat , but I’m not off Beat “just meaning I like to do my own thing and who is anyone to say that is wrong. I appreciate your words and I never not once thought it was hating my love. Heart you both for even responding
December 3, 2012 8:07 pm
@Choco Tranny ?!! Lol awwww it’s my dad that gave me these damn cheek bones, my bad if they confused you lol thanks for liking my looks though ;)
December 3, 2012 8:08 pm
@empress love your comment ., thank u lovie
December 3, 2012 9:40 pm
I also got the semi-Tranny vibe. Not in a ‘bad’ way I guess, like pretty Tranny but Tranny nonetheless. I didn’t think the submission was that original b/c it reeked RhiRhi…I voted not good but I’ve seen worse. Just not my taste, there was a lot going on but yeah, two snaps in a circle for confidence. I wouldn’t want to recreate these looks but I definitely felt some of the pieces. :-)
December 3, 2012 9:43 pm
perfect.
December 3, 2012 10:06 pm
Perfect example of a bombshell. I loved each and every look. She is an artist.
December 3, 2012 10:11 pm
Her shoes!!!
December 3, 2012 10:19 pm
I like! WERK!
December 3, 2012 10:39 pm
Whew! This girl’s style is ridiculously dope! Very difficult looks to pull off and she pulled them ALL off and put em back on again! Love it!
December 4, 2012 12:09 am
ok for the people sayin she’s a tranny they sound like hate….her look is fly on another level…i dont even wear a wig and my wig has just been snatched lol
December 4, 2012 12:22 am
Amazing photographs!!! I can say these are best examples of real fashion.
December 4, 2012 12:23 am
@Co-sign well at least I get pretty Tranny lol thank you . And far as RhiRhi people are always going to be compared to a celebrity because that’s who they see everyday. I get Rhianna Everytime I step out and that’s not me. I definitely dress different then what her stylist put on her. I appreciate your kinda sweet opinion lol it was cute … Muah
December 4, 2012 12:25 am
@meme it’s my cheek bones lol girl my daddy gave me these. It’s their opinion and it’s okay :) thank you for the love … You was ride it die huh …xoxo
December 4, 2012 9:06 am

WAIT this is a bombshell. Stop lying to yourself! If she is a bombshell then your a real blonde ha! her photos are not head to toe looks. She don’t have 5 to 8 or maybe it’s ten photo looks, now right? the photos aren’t clear! she have no fashion what so ever! but you upload her weak looks to your site. Please a woman your age should know better! SEND!!
