Streetview: The Loop

September 29, 2016 Brian Gee

What I Loved: Malik knows how to put A Fall Lookβ„’ together. But as a cast member for Hamilton's Chicago production, that's not surprising. Fly AF. Everything but the shoes is a shade of blue. The visual interest comes with his perfect mix of fabrics and patterns. The bold blue sweater grabs your attention, but it's also framing and softening the subtle hexagon print on his shirt. Then there's the jeans. OMG. I can't get enough of them. The body-hugging fit is popular right now, but it's the ribbed pattern that elevates these jeans above others I've seen. Finally, the boots are the perfect pop of a coordinating color, and the faux straps are a cool take on the popular monk strap trend.

Style Tip: Don't be afraid to go monochromatic. Mix your fabrics and patterns to keep things interesting, and you'll stand out from the crowd just like Malik.
