WE'RE BACK FROM WINTERBREAK




Hello there loyal Greg's Wardrobe Fans and Friends,

I am pleased to inform you that the blog has resumed. This semester will be filled with fashion, Brits and other internationals. And of course, Gregory will also be featured.
To start the semester of right, here are some snapshots of Greg's new wardrobe. He did some shopping over break. He still wears one pair of skinny jeans, but at least... they're new. 

Stay tuned for more fashion updates about the J-School men,

Love (live from the 6th floor of the j school),

Nobel laureate wears skinny jeans



THE SEMESTER BREAKS AT PIVOTAL POINT! 

Well, well, well. My work here may be done. For the entire semester, I have been looking at Greg's skinny jeans--we all have--and making fun of his British accent. I also wrote a few months ago, that Greg's British counter part in the school, our very own Fulbright Scholar, would never wear skinny jeans. I am happy to tell you: I was wrong. 
I ran into this Nobel Laureate at Nussbaum and Wu, when he told me that he bought himself a pair of skinny jeans at American Apparel. AMERICAN APPAREL! Has anyone ever seen anybody more British than Simon? Simon also confessed that he was not completely sure that the jeans are actually meant to be skinny. "I am raaaahhhter afffraid that my callllwwwwzzz are just too thick," Simon said, sipping water. 
Clearly, the colors in the American Apparel store temporarily lost Simon to lose all sense of self, because he also bought a pink shirt. Could it be possible that Simon is slowly morphing into Greg? And Greg into Simon?

I think it has officially been done: Simon has ... INTEGRATED. Well done, simon. When he left, however, Simon did look like his old British self, wearing a vintage hat and hiding his pink shirt. Baby steps. 

Happy Chrismukkah! It's holiday season and Gregory shows it



Inspired by the infamous O.C. episodes, Gregory put on his familiar pair of skinny jeans (like he owns anything else) and topped it off with a red-and-gray winter vest. Yes, the vest he can also wear when he hits the age of 60, but it's the holidays so who cares. It's, er, very British of you Gregory. The smell of hot apple cider just comes out of your computer, looking at these pictures.

HAPPY HOLIDAYS EVERYONE!

It's Winter, J-School men wear their sweatshirts




More J-School sweatshirt fashion! Ladies, get ready to see all our favorite men in these shirts for the next four months. They seem to be very comfortable in them. 

Also, welcome to a whole new group of models on Greg's Blog! Welcome to Christopher Kieffer and Colin Crowell, two true New Media Fellows (and as we've seen with Chikodi and Greg--Boquet, not White--that is where the true fashion lies. 

Welcome to, finally, a new international student from another hemisphere! Luis Henao, coming from Colombia, has finally made an appearance. Welcome, Luis! 

Now, boys, if you just start wearing skinny jeans with these shirts, we're done. 

How to wear your J-School Sweatshirt



Nikolaj, one of Greg's wardrobe's favorite returning models, shows us all how to dress up a J School sweatshirt. Topped with his long doorman coat, he wears it well. He also has a stash of several more sweatshirts to sell them in Chinatown. This stylish ex-businessman knows he's now entering a profession that does not actually pay any money, so he's looking for his luck elsewhere.

Greg has a cold


By now, we know that there is something not in order when Greg is wearing kakis. There are, of course, multiple options for this. 1) It's laundry day. 2) Greg is sick. The latter one was the case. As Greg went around school, with what he described a "monstrous cough," he was in no shape to wear skinny jeans. Other people may have resorted to sweatpants, BUT NOT OUR GREGORY! Kakis is as casual as this Euro-boy is willing to go. An important accessory with this sickly look is the pouty face. And Greg is working the pouty face very well in this picture.


BREAKING NEWS: the fashion lies with New Media




Who knew? The New Media kids are fashionable! I know what you all must be thinking. New media means computers, computers means geeks, and geeks by all means does not mean fashion. Well, loyal fans, let me tell you, the facts seem to be otherwise. After a speech by Anderson Cooper in the lecture hall, I stumbled upon these two well accessorized men. 
Chikodi is working his hip version of a hunter's hat, and Greg (Boquet, not White), has a fashionable blue scarf. "This is way too long and wrapped three times," he explained. It also became apparent that there was no real plan behind the scarf... probably just to keep him warm. 

Also, a warm welcome to Chikodi and Greg to this blog. Let's hope that the other New Media people are inspired by this, and will dress up when they go sit behind their computers.
