Q: So where does a stylish guy like yourself get his fashion inspiration from?

A: Probably two places. My dad [who Oliver told us hails from the UK], and vintage style from the 50's. The Rat Pack, Cary Grant, it's all very sophisticated.

Smart-looking Pea Coat: Calvin Klein

Heather-grey Cardigan: John Smedley

Cotton button-down: H&M

Navy trousers: J Crew

Boat shoes: Sperry Topsider

Black tie: Vintage ("from my dad!")

It was very exciting to finally find a guy who deserved the title of UCSD's best dressed. And all the gents at UCSD should take notes from Oliver. His style is classic and preppy, but he has put himself together in an unmistakably modern way. He is also one of the few guys I have seen who can pull off a tie outside of the workplace. By only fastening one button of his cardigan, he ensures that he looks pulled together without looking too uptight. His black pea coat is a much more stylish choice than the typical UCSD sweatshirt that 90% of the dudes on campus wear and is perfect for those weird, sunny-but-freezing days that we've been experiencing. And the boat shoes are a surprising touch that work perfectly with his preppy/hipster vibe. Bravo!
