Life has been crazy, but I have finally found sometime to write a blog about the King of Pop's passing, Michael Jackson. Everyone knows the impact he has made in the music industry, but his memory does not only exist in music. Michael Jackson has made a strong impact in the world of fashion, from the sequin glove to the military uniforms.
Michael Jackson never feared to take risks, but his style showed that any outfit can be fashionable...if you work it right. My favorite MJ fashion moment (this might be bias because of th
e song) is the looks in the "Beat It" music video.
e song) is the looks in the "Beat It" music video. Who could seriously resist that bad boy leather jacket? The main reason I love it... its different. Unlike other bad boy looks, its a red leather jacket and has the MJ touch of the military inspired looks. To top it off, that belt is nuts! The double belt with chains completely sharpens the look. The "Beat It" video also, contains the fashionable fedora hat with the fashionable large black sunglasses. MJ did not just assist in making these items fashionable, but making them "cool" during a time when bad was popular. I decided, in his memory, to use this video's theme as my inspiration for the photo shoot I am doing for Paws Model and Talent next week.
That's my favorite MJ fashion moment... share yours.
