what would jason wear: on the job edition

Today I bring you photos that my lovely coworker L took of me on the job.
I blurred the background for obvious/legal reasons, besides you all know where I work.





tada.
button down by Energy
Jeans by Zara.
Boots are Gianni Barbato

I have to say I love the fit of those jeans except for the waist...Zara's smallest size for men is a 30 so they're pretty big through the crotch...

I got my naisl painted today/mini manicure!
I'm very into the color, it's a metalic charcoal/blue.
I forgot the brand though, I'll check on thursday...

and for laughs,



went to Yaffa with B after work for dinner.

long day in the city

hi all,

I was fortunate enough to have 2 extra hours this morning to decide what to wear since i just threw on some jeans and a tshirt to go to the doctor/bank in the am.

It was so cool out when I left, but by the time I walked home it was hot, so I decided on shorts.




white button down by Diesel
shorts by h&m
scarf/tie Lanvin
Jil Sander sandals return

I really thought this outfit was cute in contrast to the colorful stuff I usually wear. I'd like to start wearing more smart looks, so I'm considering investing in some nice button down shirts. This kind of look reminds me of a "friend", E, who "doesn't wear t-shirts", or text me to hang out, for that matter.

I dragged my new friend N around soho today to shop.
My first destination was the new Jil Sander store, which, as I discovered is the only store that bought the marble stuff from the fall/winter '08 collection. I would have diiied for those marble jeans, but they're sold out in my size. So by all means, if you're a 31 waist, grab them before they're gone. In addition, if you haven't been to the store yet, please try to, it's across from Opening Ceremony.

Next was 3.1 Philip Lim to by a shirt I knew I wanted.


We have it at Barneys, but only in an olive color, but I liked this one much more.

Also picked up these cute pillow cases at urban outfitters!


la torre eiffel!

Post #2 is the 2nd most awkward

of course my last day at PRC was enjoyable, albeit a lil boring.
I knew I wanted to wear the Jil Sander sandals I picked up at the Barneys warehouse sale on Sunday, so todays outfit was built on that.




I also knew I wanted to wear them with my black aa jeans. It was a very warm, sunny day today so I played up the whole black and white motif with a single pocket Margiela t-shirt and my elephant necklace.



finished look:




Last minute to give a little color and to bring in some inorganic to the very natural black/white, I threw my stuff in a sapphire lamè bag.

post #1 is the most awkward

Today on my way home from work, in anticipation of starting this blog, I was typing away taking notes on my sidekick (to quote DMM, "people with sidekicks are not popular) about topics I wanted to discuss. This has been something I've wanted to start for a while now, not only to catalog my daily and favorite looks, but inspirations, designs and opinions on current fashion and style events.

Tomorrow is my last day at the internship that may have changed my life.

For the past year I've been working at PR Consulting, a fashion, beauty and lifestyle PR firm. I've had the opportunity to work for some great people and to handle the samples of Balenciaga, Dries Van Noten, Proenza Schouler, Jil Sander and more. It's the thing in my life that opened my eyes and made me sure I wanted to be involved in fashion, somehow. And although everyone knows that fashion internships can be tedious, it really changed something in me. I'll miss it a lot.

and away from the more serious,
Today after work I went down to the cosmetics floor to visit my friend. We were bored. I painted my nails.
My thumb and pointer finger are painted with Chanel blue velvet.




my ring finger is painted with some sparkly pinkish color, and my pinky with a deep plum both by YSL. I did those ones just to show my best friend M ;-) I think she'll really appreciate them.



nail polish is not for me.
but I really do see it work for some super fashion forward guys. So why don't I like it for myself??
Maybe it's my stubby fingers. or that I bite my nails a loooot.

The last part of my post would normally be when I show you guys what I wore/bought today. But I was super lazy. I wore my I O Tokyo tshirt, rag & boner jeans and tied a fucking h&m scarf around my waist and called it a day. But tomorrow I promise much better :D

So for now, heres my "best of Jason"



this is 2 weeks ago for P's bday at 205. I love this Dries Van Noten shirt!! It's a lot more pink than in the pic. Sadly I couldn't find a pic where you can see the pants I wore, but they're Diesel. I'll wear them often.


This was taken during my class at parsons, we went on a shoot for lula magazine. I sat on a truck...and we had our own little shoot :P vneck is american apparel of course. Shorts by Diesel, and sandals Balenciaga.


this is what I wore on new years 2008. I just thought it was cute...pants are Diesel. Button down shirt is Esprit (I know, right??). H&M suspenders. Sneakers are Alessandro Dell'Acqua.


and this is my artistic photo of the summer. I took this when I went to a concert with P and B in Williamsburg. It's my corn on the cobb, ashes and my lovely mules from Esperanza that I got in Tokyo in summer '06. Oh the memories of one summer...

that took a lot longer than i thought it would!!!
<3,
Jason.
