The Generic Man A/W 2010

As the seasons change and afford us the opportunity to get our fall wears in order, The Generic Man blesses us with their A/W ’10 collection. Staying on top of the new, the line includes a uniquely reminiscent desert boot, hard bottom lace ups, and an athletic inspired shoe. The use of rich colors and patterns makes our minds wander from August to October. Look for these real soon at TGM stockists including Barney’s, Bird, and Steven Alan.

Deirdre and crew visit Haiti

My old boss Deirdre Maloney, owner of BPMW Agency and three of her friends, Terrence J, Fred Whitaker, Jamel Davenport, and David Joseph, recently visited Haiti to see first hand the calamity that the January 12th earthquake caused.  Collectively, they put together a short video highlighting what they saw, their interaction with the people, and a message about what needs to be done to fix things.  It is refreshing to see these media personalities deal with the real things going on in the world and committing to helping.
