Nick Cannon is the epitome of a business hustler in Hollywood, so it’s no surprise he is slated to be among the “28 Men of Change” featured next month on BET and Centric. Many know him as a mega-host, with multiple gigs including NBC’s “America’s Got Talent” and MTV’s “Wild ‘N Out.” But, Nick’s résumé contains many other titles, too — film star, comedian, musician, writer, director, executive producer, and philanthropist. On the “Real Husbands of Hollywood,” his NCredible Entertainment has been a feature of many skits. But make no joke about it, the entertainment and management company handles a myriad of TV and film projects with major networks, along with successful music and product divisions. The chairman of TeenNick and philanthropist of his own Nicholas Scott Cannon Foundation keeps himself booked solid, while also making time to be a father to twins Monroe and Moroccan and a husband to Ms. Mariah Carey.
Although Nick appears to have a schedule that is all over the place, his sense of style is one thing that’s not. When spotted on the red carpet, he doesn’t shy away from mixing in vibrant garments. If you want to add a hint of personality to your look, take a few style cues from this week’s Star Style, Nick Cannon.
Incorporate a timeless overcoat with modern details into your closet.
Soften up your look with a velvet or suede blazer.
Broaden your wardrobe with rich brocades, which can add a touch of nobility to any look.
Whether going for a baggy pair of jeans or a straight leg, make certain that the jeans reach your waist. Thankfully, Nick keeps it classy.
Incorporate another level of bling, just by adding tasteful luxurious accessories. Diamonds are the only way you can shine.
An all-white suit can offer a multitude of outfits during the warmer months. From a casual-nautical jaunt to a weekend dinner and back to the office on Monday, a white suit can be mixed with other separates to convey a range of moods.
Tying in blazers and jackets with unexpected patterns shows that you have personality and an unconventional approach to style.
A hot sweatshirt with straight leg jeans and graphic sneakers makes for the perfect grown-up outfit for chillin’ on the weekends.
A satin blazer gives a dashing edge to a basic shirt and pants look. The sheen of the jacket instantly dresses up the monochromatic basics.
Consider buying at least one lightweight, casual jacket that can transitional from season to season. Look for one made of a quality material, ensuring that it will be a long-lasting essential in your closet.
If you are unsure about the difference between a formal tuxedo and an informal one, pay close attention to this slide and the next one. As pictured above on Nick, it is appropriate to wear a neck tie for a more traditional look.
For an informal, non-traditional tux look, one must still take a dapper approach. While it is acceptable to forgo the tie, other haberdashery items, such as pocket squares, cuff links, and tasteful jewelry should be added to the ensemble.
