Piecing It Together

I’M WEARING: Backpack (Bao Bao by Issey Miyake) / Sweater (Handvaerk) / Shirt (Hugo Boss) / Drop Crotch Chinos (COS Stores) / Sneakers (Hydrogen-1) / Specs (John Varvatos) / Headphones (Marshall’s) / Watch (Kenneth Cole)

Something a little different today, inspired by my new, stunning (if I may say so myself) backpack from Bao Bao by Iseey Miyake. The “hiker” backpack is inspired by the original travel back pack, in all black, with a slim updated silhouette and a beautiful design typical of the Bao Bao brand — the small triangles all over the backpack. I translated its casual essence into a laid back streets-y outfit with sneakers, drop-crotch chinos, and a nerdy shirt-sweater-glasses combo, going for a “grown-up schoolboy” kind of look. As weird as that may sound, the look worked perfectly with the backpack, and in tune with the childish flair, I fooled around with the baskets on the court ;)
