How would you describe your personal style?
"Top-tier slacker. I am from Austin, so I am trying to throw on heavier clothes than I am used to but keep it fashion forward. I wear a lot of jeans and t-shirts."

Who are your style icons?
"I'm really into Justin Theroux's style right now. I don't really have one specific person I go to."

Where do you like to shop?
"I will be walking down the street and pick pieces that I like from other people's style. When you are in Chelsea or Greenwich, you can find the little things, like from this place called What Comes Around Goes Around. I also shop a lot at South Moon Under."

What is the one thing you must have in your closet?
"Good comfortable shoes. We do a lot of walking in the city, whether it be my tennis shoes or my throwback Adidas."

Funniest fashion moment?
"I tried to sport the polo with the collar popped up. It came and went and should have stayed in the 80's. I was trying to be preppy when I'm not."

How has your style changed or evolved?
"I think it has evolved from jeans from Goodwill, old boots, printed tees to trying to find unique pieces that are more grown-up. Also, getting more comfortable looking a little different."

What's on your Christmas/Hanukkah list?
"A nice hat. I have been looking for a nice felt hat, not formal but not grandpa either. Snowboots that don't make you look like a lumberjack."
