Not satisfied with creating one of our favorite menswear lines, Sam Shipley and Jeff Halmos are also building a respectable book business with their S&H publishing division. The do-it-all designers are introducing their latest tome tonight, a collection of photographs by Aaron Stern. The book, Everyone Must Be Announced, condenses the concert going experience into [...]

Spotted by GQ fashion director Madeline Weeks at Sharon Segal in Santa Monica is a collection of vintage t-shirts not to be missed.
