"When I go to the outlets you should see the outfits I come out wit"
-Ya Boy from Nump's "Walking Fashion Statement"
So I just dropped a hundred bucks on a new wardrobe, and it got me thinking. I'm super metro. I blow a lot on clothes. I have too many for a dude. I've bought 3 pairs of shoes in April alone! Although one pair is primarily for basketball use only. But I've decided, I get a lot of compliments, and I think I should share my fashion tips. I'll admit I do dress cool out of all the other reporters.
My biggest revelation here is surprise: I never pay full price. I mash together Ross, Marshalls/Bargain Department stores with Department store Macy's Sale/Clearance items, and I mix in the outlets, and discount department stores like Target and Walmart. For the next however long I feel like it, I'll share my daily Walking Fashion Statement, and show how I came up with it. Keep in mind, I am an on camera talent, so appearance means a lot. I have a big inventory on ties, dress shirts, and quite a few suits. I'll show how I've come up with those. I'm also a one man team, operating a camera, I'm on my feet a lot, and do a lot of walking as well so comfortable feet is a must. But I also deal with businesses and a lot of professionals, so I have to pull off a certain professional look. So you'll see how I pull it off, and I'll give some insight on what kind of work I have that day because it is a factor in my daily dressing decisions. Of course because of work issues I won't show my face, but think of it as a mannequin. For the record I'm 5'8 about 160 pounds, muscular built. Shirt sizes range from small to medium skinny fit, to medium, depending on the brand. Shoe size is between 10-11, also depending on brand. Waist is 30-32, and inseam is 28-30. I prefer a 28 inch inseam.
So enjoy and guys, ain't nothing wrong with looking fly.
