He Can Dance |[ and dress apparently ]|

I dont know how many of you have watched the new 5th season of SYTYCD [so you think you can dance] but, is it me, or is Kupono [short for Kuponohi'ipoi] Aweau, the Hawaiian contemporary dancer fashionisto, just the most memorable dancer on that show. And its not just his dancing... it is a combonation of his personality, his gestures, and most importantly, his fashion sense.

People should really take notes from this guy. Its almost as if he has nothing in his life that he must TRY to do. [seriously, take notes]. Most people, once they've gotten up in the morning, think long and hard about what they should wear and wind up with a travesty worse than 911. But, kupono seems to find a way to make his wardrobe seem as if he almost did not care one bit but still turn out amazing. I wished they hadn't made him cut his hair.

He even goes out to say that he designs most of his own clothing. Its absolutely stunning his fusion of grunge, with a side of punk and hip hop styles. He finds a way to seamlessly integrate a tattered hoodie with a tank, cargo pants and high top sneakers.

Now, a word of caution before you go emulating this boy's style. Its not made for everyone. Unless you have a tall and slender body, a natural sense of style, and the ability to own your look like he does... you might be in for quite an embarrassing time when you walk out on the streets this way. Kupono, you rock. Ahhh! it really is our small [very small] stars that make the largest impact. Now its time to hear what you have to say... Jah! or NAW!. I say JAH!
