Do it Mexican style!

So, this is my boyfriend's cousin, Rodrigo. He's got great style -- even the frat boys think he's 'pimp' ;)

Apparently he picked up his top from Hot Topic. I can't believe they actually sell clothes without skulls/bones/vampires/stupid catchphrases on them!! Kudos to him for finding one that actually looks really indie and avant-garde. In fact when I first saw it, I thought he had made it himself/bought it at some random garage sale. You know, something very obscure. A shirt with a story behind it, not one duplicated in China.

...But the good thing about having shirts from franchise stores is everyone gets to buy one and look cool!

Oh yeah, and I like the little headband too. I've seen a LOT of guys try to pull that off, and most fail miserably but, lucky for him, not here. :)

To add to all the coolness, he's also part of a really talented band called O Scarlet, definitely drop by their Myspace and check them out.

Since it is near impossible for me to write an objective style-nalysis, I must await Jo's further input. :)

jo: okay im finally getting down to evaluating!! mary dont hate me. haha.

anyway what can i say? gotta love indie guys. not the emo ones u get in singapore, with their badly drawn eyeliner, and having a mop for a hairdo (clean cut guys, we want clean!). seriously, having hair that flops over your head like a dead fish, is very unattractive and makes you look like you havent washed your hair for days. gross.

and, i cant help it, but i do think that rol's cousin's cute.:) haha.

but moving along... id have to say the get up is really simple, and clean. just the way i like it. sometime's simplicity's the way to go, it isnt over the top or screams 'look at me'. just a 'hey, look ure cool, im cool, we're all cool.' chill, relax and walk down easy street man. life's too rushed and we've all gotta take it easy. the headband definitely adds some attitude and funk. but the point i'm trying to make here is, you definitely dont need alot to become a style icon. not at all.:)
although! he could have done with some nice beaded bracelets, just to add to that indie feel. nonetheless, good job!
