The gentlemen of Penn State rarely grasp the importance of style. However there are a select few who really seem to get it. So many students look for wardrobe inspiration in typical East Coast neat-as-a-pin preppy styles.

Not so with this Fashionisto. He effortlessly mixes and matches prints and solids, as well as vintage and modern details. Not everyone would think to rock a vintage Beatles jacket with some high top Jordan sneakers. This Fashionisto makes it look good.

This look works because each eclectic piece of this outfit reflects his personality, and the obvious authenticity of his style keeps him looking fashionable without coming across as forced.

For any guys who wants to look this cool, try pairing this Mishka jacket with some hot Android Homme sneakers, and one of your own button-downs to keep your look personal. For the ladies, get an on-trend boyfriend look by wearing the same jacket (size down) with your favorite skinny jeans and heels or sneakers.
