David Hawkins — a former designer to Hollywood stars who lives in Steiner Ranch — opened a new clothing and lifestyle store nearby called The Skull & Crown.
Hawkins designed clothes for his G.I. Joe when he was very young, after becoming frustrated that the action figure only had one outfit. Now, he is making a dream come true by opening his own shop.
Hawkins, who moved to Austin from Los Angeles 14 years ago, has designed clothes for a host of entertainment stars including Jamie Foxx, Rod Stewart, Harrison Ford, Helen Hunt, Vanessa Williams, and the cast of “Friends”.

The former Walmart site near Grandview Hills is now the Preserve at 620 and it’s sporting a pocket park with outdoor seating, a dog run and state-of-the-art fitness center. The site offers tenants much more than just its 225,000-square-feet of office space.
The approximately $46.5 million project that renovates and expands the former superstore at 8201 N. RM 620 is nearing completion. In January, the site developer will welcome its first tenant, the corporate headquarters for automotive supplier Innovative Aftermarket Systems, said Aquila Commercial Senior Vice President Joe Simmons.
