Check out what's in Jerome Maestas's bag on page 2! Singer Gwen Stefani designs a collection called L.A.M.B. This black-and-white mini-duffle bag is from that line. The gothic-style text it's covered in reads: "Love. Angel. Music. Baby." Let's go in for a closer inspection... We have an olive green, Paul Frank iPhone case with the symbolic Julius, the monkey. We also have a Drag Nation ticket, as well as Maestas's business cards. See him at Chopz if you need a cut! And a fake mustache! "There are always some random things in my bag," says Maestas.
Style analysis: Maestas proves that sticking to the black-and-white basics never goes out of style -- especially if you give those basics a twist, as Maestas does with his shoulder detail, houndstooth hat and smoke-colored jeans.
