The Styles of 6 Capital City Men – Peter Leonard
Peter Leonard, 28
Business Development Manager for Little Amps and Musician
“My personal style is classic American. I really enjoy staples of what has become American fashion – jeans, leather boots, T-shirts. …For me now, as a father of a baby and having a job where every day is different, I need to have a certain functionality to my wardrobe. Things like leather boots, sturdy denim and gray T-shirts are staples for me. My style in my life right now is based partly on my taste but also what I need to wear in my day-to-day life – things that are durable and comfortable.”
Advice: “Don’t just latch on to a trend. Not every guy can do a high-fashion look. Follow your own style, not someone else’s. Style is so personal and subjective – how it fits you and fits into your life. You can tell if it’s forced. Listen to yourself and what feels good to wear.”
