“I'm wearing a sweatshirt by Oaknyc, trousers from H&M, Aldo shoes, a harness bought from a street vendor, and a bag by Alexander Wang. My style is based off runways. I'm not afraid to wear crazy silhouettes and things that you wouldn't normally see day to day.”

Refining your personal style takes time, and for me, my fashion aesthetic is a product of various people and experiences in my life. 

With respect to people who shape my brand, following style bloggers on Instagram help me identify the latest trends from fashion influencers themselves. Currently, the accounts I follow the closest are @ohanthonio, @yummertime, and @imdrewscott; these folks have solid brands that I constantly draw inspiration from. There is also fashion icons in music like Lady Gaga who influences the modern Western aesthetics of big hats and denim in this look.

Then there’s also the collective influence of living in new cities that influence your style. From living in New York, my style has definitely been impacted by the streetwear I observe in my daily commutes. The monochrome palette of the city seemed to mirror the fashion of its citizens, where folks would adorn chic ensembles in greys and neutrals. These colours ended up influencing my everyday wear, evolving my pastel neckerchief looks shaped by the San Francisco neighbourhoods to a muted, minimialist streetwear identity. 

With the days of cooler spring weather dwindling to an end, this week was an opportunity serving some layered looks. One of my favourite wardrobe items is this bomber jacket from Oak. Its overall boxy fit reminisces the pre-2000′s urban baggy style, a trend that seems to be resurfacing with contemporary streetwear trends from the runway (notable examples: Yeezy, Hood By Air, and Vetements). Pairing the oversized fit with slim-fitting denim is a great combination drawing from today’s streetwear fashion, and it’s an easy look to wear on the daily.
