Apparently the only place in town where homeboy could buy a new blazer was closed because every employee had the flu.  And that’s how he ended up with that ridiculous thing which is about three sizes too big.  Sucks for him.  

Oh, and if you must wear a mandarin collar, leave the tie at home.  I mean, would a double amputee wear socks?  Exactly.

Paris Street Style During Fashion Week. 

I’m going with two hours.  Two hours in that it took this schmuck on wheels two hours to get dressed that particular morning.  Everything about this kit is so meticulously and perfectly disheveled, it’s like the anti-sprezzatura.  Are you kidding me with the sleeves peeking from the cardigan peeking from the jacket?  Do the laws of physics cease to exist on his forearms?  And what about those socks?  No one in the world should be allowed to pull such a stunt unless protecting oneself from ticks while hiking or playing organized baseball, DAS IT!!

While we’re on the subject

I remember reading a bunch of blurbs and articles about Jamie Hince’s powder blue YSL suit being the epitome of “rocker cool” and while I don’t disagree, I think Mark Ronson’s combination  of a red shawl-collared jacket and leopard print tie somehow feels less forced and definitely looks more “cool”

Mark got mud in his tires.  And, sometimes, he gets his style inspiration from Vinny Gambini.
