Style. Everyone has it - although some might disagree with me. It just depends on the person and what he or she is trying to convey, or not convey.
Fashion, whether influenced by the cast of Jersey Shore or death metal, can represent one's personality to the world.
These days, when people talk about fashion, Lady Gaga comes to mind. Whether incubating in an egg or sporting horns fit for Puck in A Midsummer Night's Dream or Satan (whichever comparison works best for you, stylish readers), she seems to dominate headlines with her outfits, some of which outrage critics and intrigue fans alike. It dominates our commercial culture down to the last "Matthew McConaughey takes his shirt off again" advertisements.
I was once asked to describe my own style. I thought for a moment and then said, "Jack Daniels at a Sunday brunch." I can go for a more sophisticated, elegant look, with my blazer, v-neck sweaters, skinny ties with accompanying tie clip and perfectly coiffed receding hairline, or I can go for the "I don't
give a damn," scruffy-faced, just-rolled-out-of-an-alley look. Both of which I pull off exquisitely, by the way.
I've realized over the years that my closet contains enough of the basics to afford me options. When I want to go out for a night on the town, I've got enough flannel for The Replay and enough dress shirts for Tonic.
A family member once remarked that at times I could blend in with the box seat crowd drinking mint julips at the Kentucky Derby, while other times I could fit in well with the drunken, shirtless men playing king of the hill with a half empty keg of Natural Light in the center of the track. I took it as a compliment.
Some see my style as a contradiction, but I just consider myself a renaissance man.
This issue of Jayplay has several articles on style that can help you with wardrobe choices. Gabrielle Schock's feature on page 8 offers five wardrobe essentials for men and women, while Jennifer DiDonato's story on page 11, gives helpful tips for picking out classic hats.
While the end of winter has put me in a fashion slumber, the beginning of spring is waking up my style conscience, which is asking me, "Why the hell are you sleeping in an alley? I thought we were through with this."

In between bagpipes and drums, the St. Patrick's Day Parade also had some pop this year.
during parade
Raising awareness, student volunteers for the Jayhawk Buddy System performed a flash mob dance routine to Taio Cruz's "Dynamite" at several locations along the parade route Thursday afternoon.
about 15 dancers, all wearing green jayhawk Buddy System T-shirts, came out of the audience and took to the street for the routine.
Shannon Foster, a sophomore from Overland Park, said she volunteered to dance after the president of her sorority urged members to do so.
"They're just trying to get their message out," Foster said as she jogged to the next performance.
Fieldhouse. A video of the routine posted on YouTube by KU Athletics has more than 279,000 views.
The Jayhawk Buddy System is an initiative of the Office of the Vice Provest of Student Success and encourages students to have a "buddy" when going out or drinking to stay safe.
The Jayhawk Buddy System first performed its routine at the men's basketball game against Missouri on Feb. 7 in Allen
