Curbside Catwalk: Denver

I met Ietef H. while promoting the Affordable Textbook Campaign on the Auraria Campus. He was kind enough to write a hand-written letter to our legislator and while doing so, I noticed his funky outfit. I couldn't help but take a quick pic. Turns out, his outfit is indeed fascinating. The sports coat was bought at a thrift store in Denver, but it's from Barneys New York and made in Italy -- it was a steal for $20. So were his $45 Banana Republic jeans, also found at a thrift store. The beautiful hand-made shirt is from Kenya and bought at a local market for $30. The cool hat is Knox and was bought by his great-great-grandfather at the old Denver Dry Goods Store downtown. Add the camouflage Vans shoes, the political Malcolm X flair and this Metro State Music & African-American Studies student is ready to rock the house.
