Funny story to tell.
Pretty sure you've all run into this type of embarassed envy at some point in your life.
So my 51 year old fogey office mate Bill walks in at work on a rare 35 degree morning looking unexpectedly radiant. I tell him, "You look studly today (no homo), but i just can't put my finger on it." Now you have to understand, Bill is one of the old Army- rugged, blue collared, grouchy, bad language, chain smoking all american farm boy/hippy.

...yea, aside from his fag smile, I say he looks like a pretty typical hillbilly.
Au contrair I say.
During one of my frequent breaks (lol), I checked out this article written by our main man himself, hip-hop fashion guru Kanye West on the GQ website.

<<<....!!!!!! WTF!!!!! LMAO
A great example of being accidentally fashionable.
Not only is his Levi's jacket the exact replica of the one shown on Kanye's article (aside from a faded color, probably from washing it in his dishwasher frequent times), it's probably truly vintage, bought in the early 80's!
After jizzing in my pants, I almost stole it, only to find it smelling of cigarette smoke, grease, alcohol, and fried chicken. No thanks, Bill. Maybe if you washed it...
