Style Icons: Biggie Smalls


There are very few people who have been (or currently in) the spotlight who have their own style. Turn on the television and you see celebrity after celebrity rocking designer garb with no thought. Men certainly don't stand out. I've always admired people who are not afraid to incorporate some pizazz in their look. This brings me to one of my style heroes, Biggie Smalls. 

Not only one of the greatest MC's of the past two decades, he did it with style and in-your-face flamboyance. Biggie always had a distinct look: Kangol tilted to the side, big sunglasses, and a "fuck you" attitude. No one will ever make a fur jacket look quite as good as he did. Cosby sweaters and big chains: this dude was not someone who would go unnoticed when walking in a room. 

Study Biggie a little, fellas. Don't be afraid to accessorize and have a little swag. The world will be a better place.
