How to Get Jay Z’s Signature Look

Throughout his career, Shawn “Jay Z” Carter’s music has always been able to express the different cornerstones of his life at the moment.

Now that he is a married man with a daughter, he has ventured off to rap about parenthood and…yeah, he still raps about money and clothes, but in a more refined, “I-have-a-401k” type of way.

One thing that has certainly changed is his style. When Jay Z debuted on the music scene with a hyphen in his name, Timberland boots on his feet and a Roc-A-Fella chain around his neck, he became the poster boy for Brooklyn’s fashion sense.

Nowadays, he still holds true to his urban appeal but with his mainstream success he has begun to wear more avant-garde and high fashion labels, tailored jeans and suits, and stick to an all black uniform, and he’s proven himself to be an authoritative voice in which fashion brands the hip hop community embraces (Tom Ford, anyone?)
