I give you an elder man, you complain he's old. I give you a woman scantily clad and you complain, Here I give you a good transitional look from Summer to Autumn. A classic Brooks Brothers oxford shirt and some Levi 501's. The briefcase is pretty rad, is it not? While Matt is almost a vegetarian his ball cap is made of linen or hemp...
He looks like a Doofus! Always love your photos. Regardless of how silly some of these people look. Got to say they chutzpah.

I take most my sartorial cues from Matt- just saying.

I am fine with it until you get to the rolled jeans. Just so faddy in NYC right now. Was visiting a few weeks and the only thing that stood out more was French sailor shirts. Not a fad fan.

Since you're a tourist, Charlotte K, I'll let your lapse in judgement slide. In fact, you are correct, the "rolled jean" is to 2010 what the "cuffed jean" was to 2005. But this lad seems to be un-fadded in his implementation here. It creates a nice break - and adds a little bit of interesting proportion to the kit.

Tourist!?!
Former resident!
Happy visitor, more like it.
I don't like seeing the same "idea" over and over again. Especially in NYC where we provincials go to get our ideas ;-P

His style smacks of vintage Michael Stipe, circa Monster. I used to want to dress exactly like this back in the day: http://images.wolfgangsvault.com/images/catalog/detail/RS607-RS.jpg
