Make It

HBO recently unveiled its trailer for Season 2 of How to Make It in America & personally I can't wait for it to start:



For those unfamiliar, the show focuses on the hustling lives of Ben Epstein & Cam Calderon who are eager to make their break into the cut-throat New York City fashion scene. The show’s ability to infiltrate & focus on certain niche elements were among the defining points of comedic drama which also features appearances from Kid Cudi & skater Javier Nunez. The show’s opening trailer also includes Theophilus London's new single, “I Stand Alone.”  Be on the lookout for this: Season 2 premieres on HBO, Monday, July 11 @ 9 pm.

Mind Your Manners


With the success of their earliest mixtape 'The Swelly Express' followed up by a mini-mixtape 'Air Swell' & their most recent project, 'Peanut Butter & Swelly,' the duo, known as Chiddy Bang will be releasing their first studio LP, titled 'Breakfast.'  Pack / Grab a bowl & sample the first official single, 'Mind Your Manners' below:

Nike Toki ND Black Denim

Casual but killer, the Nike Toki skyrocketed to respectable levels of notoriety in 2010. With the growing popularity of Chukka boots the Toki offers a more relaxing look. This new black denim pair is going to do even more for the silhouette, as it is sure to compliment any outfit with its neutral color base. The black upper is contrasted by Summit White accent work, including the vulcanized sole & midfoot eyelets, as well as a light yellow top eyelet. This sneaker’s clean, smooth, & stylish.  Find yours at select Nike retailers.

Coffee Joulies

           .. is your drink to hot to handle? Not anymore.


Coffee Joulies, LLC was founded by two New Jersey natives, Dave Petrillo & David Jackson. Both having a background in engineering, these two have been working hard over the past 11 months to bring their innovative product to life. After vigoriously designing, engineering, & creating various proto-types the duo has successfully developed 'Coffee Joulies.'

^ Dave & Dave
Posing as one of the most breakthrough products for the coffee / tea world, Coffee Joulies work to keep your hot drink at a warm drinkable temperature. When adding Coffee Joulies to your cup, they first absorb energy from your coffee (tea) when it is too hot, cooling it down to a drinkable temperature (3x faster then normal). Second, they release that stored energy back into your coffee keeping it in the right (warm) temperature range twice as long. Check out the promo video below:



Coffee Joulies launched as a project on Kickstarter. Seeking $9,500 to pay for half the cost of tooling, Dave & Dave ended up raising $306,944 earning them third place in the Kickstarter Hall of Fame and providing enough money to make Joulies in the USA. They are now working full time at the old Oneida silverware factory in Sherrill, New York to get manufacturing up & running to fulfill the 8,000 pre-orders placed through their Kickstarter page. Be sure to check out the next hot productCoffee Joulies, available July 2011.

TOMS

You know that happy feeling you get inside when you donate something or help somebody less fortunate?


Well, 'TOMS' does, and they pride their business off of a do good: feel good business model.  Made famous by their shoe line, 'TOMS' has decided to branch out into a new market to continue its donating initiative. Similar to the intentions of Warby Parker's Buy One, Give One, 'TOMS' has created a similar approach to protect the eyesight of the less fortunate. In addition to buying one of their 3 stylish models, 'TOMS' will help give someone sight, whether it's via medical treatment, prescription glasses, or sight-saving surgery. Available in three classic styles & a ton of different colors, you shouldn't have a problem finding one that suits your style.  Prices run from $135-$145:
