COMMON'S FASHION SENSE

Recently we ran a poll on Encore asking you, the readers, to vote for the most stylish musician today. Amongst the options were hat fundi Common, the funky Kelis, the quirky Kanye West, the unpredictable DJ Sbu, the graceful Nhlanhla and the playful Pharrel Williams. In my opinion, all of the above-mentioned stars have a unique sense of style, which is refreshing because most stars play it safe and fail to experiment cutting-edge styles that might just make their brands stand out more from the crowd.

The majority of the votes however went to the Chicago conscious rapper Common. Apart from his good 'ol fashioned looks (ladies, I know you agree with this!), Common has always managed to look dapper in vintage-esque clothing that complements his calm, sensible personality to the letter. Where other rappers rock baggy jeans and embarrassingly oversized tees, Common opts for regular fitting pants, golf jerseys and "poor boy" hats. His passion for hats is evident, he rarely steps out of his crib without one of his trademark hats.

So we present a collage of pics to you that illustrate Commons's cool fashion sense, Ladies indulge:

That's a dope tie, might be one from Ralph Lauren's recent collecton
Nice colours on the 'ol school zip-up; "poor boy" hat in tow as always
Showing off his masculinity in a slim-cut shirt
His trademark style: tie, jersey and hat
Blinging it up a lil' bit
A clean and fresh look
A converse campaign that he partook in
A fresh 50's era look

Fantastic blog! Do you have any helpful hints for aspiring writers?
I'm planning to start my own site soon but I'm a little lost on everything.
Would you advise starting with a free platform like Wordpress
or go for a paid option? There are so many options out there that I'm completely confused .. Any ideas? Thanks a lot!

Howdy just wanted to give you a quick heads up.
The words in your content seem to be running off the screen in Firefox.
I'm not sure if this is a formatting issue or something to do with internet browser compatibility but I figured I'd post to let you know.
The design and style look great though! Hope
you get the problem fixed soon. Cheers
