arlo weiner, the eight-year-old that is more fashionable than you will ever be (sorry, it’s probably true), recently stopped finger-painting to talk spring style with gq:
- “A seersucker suit is great in summer. It’s a way to be fancy without being hot. I just got one from Brooks Brothers. You don’t need a special reason to wear it—in spring and summer I’ll wear it on any occasion.”
- “Wear black pants and a blue or white button-down with the top button open. You still look good but it lets the air in. That’s what I’m wearing right now. White is a good choice when it’s hot.”
- “You can wear shorts if you have to but only if it’s really really broiling hot. I only wear shorts if I’m going on vacation to a hot place like Palm Springs.”
- “It’s starting to get hotter out so I needed a cap, but I don’t like wearing baseball caps—they don’t go with anything I wear. My dad found this one for me. I like the shape of it and I have lots of clothes that are black-and-white striped, so it’s a good match. Though I like giraffes more than zebras.”
- “Never, ever, ever wear a faded shirt or ripped jeans. It’s sloppy! And it seems like you don’t care.”
this boy is definitely going places, people. just you wait until he hits puberty!
