Star Style - Kanye West

In typical Kanye West fashion, he was spotted leaving his hotel in NYC making a very stylish and grand statement. He wore a full length fur coat, leather pants, and a pair of Nike Air Jordan Retro 3 sneakers. I’m not sure if this is the same fur coat, but he wore one very similar around this same time last year for Paris fashion week. Kanye can also be seen carrying a snake print and leather paneled backpack. Do you like his look?

Star Style - Kanye West

Kanye West was spotted out and about walking the streets of New York City yesterday. He looked quite sharp in a well tailored grey two-button suit, tie, and what appeared to be a pair of velvet slippers, which I would assume to be by Tom Ford and if so they’ll run you about ($1,500). I like the look, but one thing stood out to me as a little off, and it’s that his shirt cuff seems to stick out to far from the sleeves of his jacket. I was taught that the sleeves of the  jacket should stop at the wrist-bone, and with the arm at rest, the shirt sleeve should extend no more than one-half inch below the sleeves of your jacket. Is this a rule you follow, or are you just like  Mr. West, where you make your own?

Style Icon - Kanye West

He may have started his career as another r'n'b artist, but he doesn't just stop there. We've spotted an evolution not only in music or personal life, but in fashion too. No no, it's not another drama queen or a Hollywood's party animal. This time it's about the stylish and hottie Kanye West. No better example for a male modern fashion icon than him.

  Over the years we've spotted so many fashion icons that come and go, but in the male row we kept those who are classy, sexy and elegant. Well, here's an exception. Kanye West brings out a new image for today's masculine figure by combining his own trends that go from all black tuxedo to hip hop style to geek-chic or vintage gentleman, all into a new and modern appeal.

If through the years the r'n'b and hip hop area didn't rise so much in the fashion world as rockstars or indie band boys did, now this side of the music seems to get more and more attention from the designers and press too. But not only Kanye West has made a major development in his style, other hip hop artists like Jay-Z, T.I., Kid Cudi or Pharell Williams had improved their appearances.

Kanye West has changed different styles in time and has also released new trends in men's fashion. At first he went for baggy hip hop style, then he changed it for futuristic techno influences, after that for geek-chic style but in all this time he kept a classical appearance that every man needs to show. For any important event, every man stands out in a tuxedo and with the right accessories you may as well be a style icon too.
