young style

I just read this crazy article about the most fashionable kid ever! GQ ran a piece on a boy named arlo weiner, whose dad produces mad men. this kid is seriously good at fashion and he's really serious about it too. here are some quotes from him...

"I have a lot of black outfits these days, so I needed the red ascot to add some color. I love red and black together—they each make the other stand out."

"I like to put random patterns together, so I picked out the green checkerboard tie with the gray checked jacket"

"Even though the tie and the jacket are different colors, they’re both striped, so I thought they looked right together"

I'm definitely planning on remembering a few of these tips ( mixing plaids, adding in red accents are two things i need to do more often), and certainly spending more time thinking about my outfits everyday like this arlo kid does:)
oh, and speaking of young fashionistas, if you havn't already, check out the style rookie blog by the 12-year-old tavi. she's pretty fab!
