STOP THE PRESSES! JAY-Z HAS BEEN READING LIVE-FAST DIE-YOUNG!
You probably remember the popular post "The Valet: Professional - Practical - Fun" from early April. In this post I debuted one of the freshest looks of 2010: "The Valet." Recently, a distinguished HipHip artist named Jay-Z was inspired by this innovative trend and showed his new look at the popular music festival Coachella. Jay-Z's "Valet" imitation was recorded on camera phones by nearby concert goers during the Beach House performance. The videos have been widely circulating the internet since.
From this angle it's unclear whether Jay Z opted to just wear the top of the Valet (the "little black cap") or really went for it and did full-Valet. It appears he is just wearing a tee.
Closer examination via another youtube user elucidates the mystery.
Indeed, JayZ only went half-Valet, opting for a light-weight, olive drab t-shirt. This is likely because of the sweaty nature of music festivals. It's worth noting that JayZ cleverly chose to utilize the versatility of the cap by pairing it with such military fatigue. It's a great example of adapting a seemingly exclusive accessory to a completely different aesthetic... and still looking good. Fucking genius.
JayZ or Valet?
Jay-Z or Valet?
JayZ, of course, never goes in public without his wife Beyonce Knowles. This time she wears a cute little head-string that perfectly compliments the gold curls of her hair. Head-strings are important because they exude a down-to-earth attitude necessary to fit in at music festivals.
"What the fuck is Beyonce doing here? I fucking hate her."
"I don't know, she seems like she's enjoying the music."
"Oh... (sees head-string) well, ok whatever. Did you get a picture?"

I also noticed another fad within the Jayz/Beyonce posse. Plastic ear things.
I'm not sure if these are fashionable or strictly functional. How do we even know those ear things are real? They could be just wearing them so people know they mean business. Which would technically mean they're wearing them "just for the look." Which means they serve as a fashion accessory... Right?
