Introducing Hasan

Hey friends!

For our latest Style Spotlight, we caught up another stylish gent from Philly, Hasan! Check out his full interview below:

Where are you from?

I was born and raised in Southwest Philadelphia! I’m currently living in the Fishtown area.

How do you define your personal style? What or who are your some of your style inspirations?

Growing up, I loved to play games like Grand Theft Auto. There are parts in the game where the you as the player has to drive around, go to different stores, and try on a bunch of clothes. The game allows the player to assume a different identity every time. That’s how I am in the real world! One day, you might see me in grungy outfit or the next day you could catch me in something a little more cozy. Everyday, I switch up my style. You never know what Hasan you’re going to get.

My three sisters are my biggest style inspirations! They’ve helped me tap into a more feminine style that I always wanted to embrace. For the longest, I dressed more masculine presenting, but my style is more layered than that.

What are the essential pieces you must have in your closet?

A good pair of sneakers, cable knit sweaters, turtlenecks, a baseball cap, and accessories (Rings, belts, earrings, hats, and scarves).

Where do you shop?

I tend to shop anywhere with a sale. Some of my favorite shops are ASOS, Boohoo, and UNIQLO. I love to thrift as well!

Describe your personal style in three words?

Cozy, loud, and fun!

Any fashion related tips?

Fellas, don’t be afraid to shop in the women’s section. Most clothes are unisex anyway. Plus, women have been shopping in the men’s section for a very long time. Just head over to the women’s section and see if something fits your personal style. You’ll don’t want to miss out on all the fun!
