Very few men dare to rock the blazer and shorts look. We like how local web designer Ming Wang pulled it off with a nice mix of colors and patterns from head to toe.
What he wore: Burberry shirt; H&M blazer; Zara shorts; Paul Smith shoes, purchased from SSENSE; Open safety pin used as earring; Haircut done in Chinatown.
Ming's product picks: Marc Jacobs Bang Bang perfume - "It smells like incense sticks and makes me feel calm and confident." Aesop Moroccan Neroli Post-Shave Lotion - "It contains a blend of essential oils that soothe and protect my shaved skin, and I really like the natural scent of it." Dior Homme Demo System Micro Purifying Cleansing Gel - "You can really feel it micro-purifying."
Ming's style tips: "Wear all black or no more than 4-5 colors, and not too loose nor too tight. Also, Uniqlo has the best no-show socks ever."
