“It’s people who have good fashion all around the world, I love it,” Noah said about his favorite site http://thesartorialist.blogspot.com/ . His hair was spiked, newly shorned he told us by one of New York's finest salons, and he seemed comfortable in his 20 year old skin. “I mean, and my sister yells at me about this all the time, but I judge people on how they dress. If they dress worse than me I’m not interested” he said, and with such a snide, almost snotty remark, there was no snot or snide in his attitude. “If you come in with the flip” he paused as we looked to him blankly, “you know, the flip. Too much product and guys just take their hair in the front and “flip” it up. I already know who you are.” For Noah it wasn’t about the labels, it was about the style, and if you couldn't express yourself well, or uniquely in how you looked, they how are you supposed to express yourself in life?
Along the same lines, he is an artist, a musician, and for him, things needed to be aesthetically pleasing, so how you dressed yourself should matter, in his book, YOU should be aesthetically pleasing.
We kept chatting, from his first fashion icon Mr. Miles Davis, to his latest in the hipster, downtown look, but what really was interesting was what he said in the end. “you know, I really just want that, ‘I don’t give a f*%! look’, that it just all comes naturally”.
Truth: Even the most style and look conscious at the end of the day, want it to appear natural, that looking good is easy.
