yeah dude, you got some explaining to do for that one. On it's face, it's blatantly clear what you're saying here.

He has grown into his fits (kind of like Lebron has started to).

Whereas, Pharrell usually looks good.
I just think this was ill conceived. Particularly for the White House.

Still not as bad as Adrien Brody's outfit for the Armani party at Cannes this year. Its all a matter of perspective.

Nice pics. The guy can dress, IMO there's no question about that.

But he (and Kanye, and pretty much most musicians/ celebrities) tend to take the ultra-preppy, hypebeast look too far. His White House tuxedo is a case in point.

I missed that Sterling "zinger," which may have been just as well

I suspected that the shirt may be by RLPL since one of my shirts wears similarly around my neck and under a bow tie (cf. WAYWRN, mid-February/early March 2010)
