Fashion Homage: Max Fischer

While the preppy look is not really my thing, seeing as it comes from those horrible frat boys who summer in Martha's Vinyard and are enjoying their college years to the fullest extent before joining Daddy's firm (I'm sorry, but does anyone like those boys?), Jason Schwartzman is my thing. As is Wes Anderson. As is the complete genius that is Rushmore. Not only do I want to be president over a beekeepers club and learn to dominate all the adults around me, but I also consider myself a style commentator ('nice nurse's uniform,' 'these are O.R. scrubs.' 'oh are they?'). And the boy has mad style, himself, which crosses over nicely for the ladies.

Nice to know that Louis Vuitton makes cigar carrying cases. Because that's something we all need.

Not only is the hat in this picture amazing, but the general angst portrayed is quite excellent. I think I need to take this pose when I am contemplating my fruitless crushing. No one has ever looked so sad on a go-cart (note to reader, I am a girl, therefore I don't know what this little contraption he is on is called, but since it looks like some kind of racing thing, I choose to deam it a go-cart. so get off my back)

I think my over-use of Marc Jacobs merchandise has to do with the connection between it and Darjeeling Limited, which then means it is connected to Rushmore. See? This also looks like an outfit that Rosemary Cross would wear, or is it just me? Perhaps I should watch the film again, as it has been awhile. It's at least an outfit that she would look really good in.

While I apologize for the quality of this photo, I need not apologize for the amazingness of the green velvet jacket! Lets all start wearing green velvet jackets when measuring up the status quo, shall we? And maybe a monocolored shirt and bowtie while we're at it.

While Polyvore, as amazing as it is, did not have green velvet jackets, they did have this nice green blazer, which I thought would go nicely with something whimsically girly. But I may end up looking back on the green and peach combination with distaste. Thoughts? At least I am sure I would look as debonaire as Max Fischer with a bandaid on my head.

But I guess you've just gotta find something you love to do and then do it for the rest of your life. For me, it's going to Rushmore.
