Happy Holidays! Hang with EG and 5&B

December 20, 2012

I wanted to wish you the happiest of holidays, in case we don’t talk until after Christmas. Like you, I’ll be spending lots of time with family and friends, and if I’m lucky, less time in front of my monitor. As much as I love running EG and Fifth&Brannan, I don’t step away from the computer and the work nearly as much as I should.

You should do the same! Turn off the electronics, and be present with those you love. Slow down, have actual conversations (without having to hit Send), eat a lot, take a walk. Reflect on the past year and quietly plan for the one to come.

You know… just in case the Mayans are wrong.

I generally have three categories in my head when it comes to clothing: things I skimp on, things I spend (normal amounts) for, and things I would splurge on.

Update from the EG / 5&B World Headquarters

June 14, 2011

The last couple weeks have been quite a whirlwind for us here at the Effortless Gent / Fifth&Brannan world headquarters. I’m a bit disappointed that I let EG’s posting schedule slack a bit, as I had a good run of two posts per week for quite a while. Over the past month or so, things have gotten super busy with the upcoming Fifth&Brannan launch, and I had to adjust priorities a bit.

The Endorsement: The Motley’s Summer Essentials, EG + 5&B elsewhere on the web, and a 5&B event reminder

May 22, 2011

I received the Summer Essentials Kit from our friends at The Motley last week, and it’s definitely something you should pick up. This ain’t your typical cheapo product you pick up from Target; this stuff is first class, and you really shouldn’t use anything less on your skin.
