style crush: MJ

He may have been known for a lot of things: the music, the creativity, the moonwalk, The Wiz....and perhaps he became known most for his eccentric lifestyle and, ahem, child-rearing decisions...but one thing about Michael Jackson is undeniable (aside from his talent, of course). The fashion.


Oh, the fashion.







In the past year, Michael had become besotted with Balmain and it's no wonder. The creative geniuses behind the fashion house were clearly inspired by MJ's military-infused style choices. It was as if the clothes were made for him. And, like hanging with young boys or having elephants as pets, he carried it off like no other.

He was my childhood favorite and I grew up singing and dancing to all his tunes. He will be missed. RIP.
