The Result When Science Meets Art

        Meet Chris. He is a second-year engineering student whose exposure to art is non-existent. However, this open-minded young chap was delighted to visit the Royal Ontario Museum, in which to widen his horizons, and to also procrastinate on his studies. As most engineers alike, his wardrobe on a regular class day will consist of sweats or day-old basics. To say the least, his styling inspiration is non-existent on most days. Therefore, I took the challenge to go through his wardrobe to come up with a fail-proof outfit that he could fall back on some days to mix it up a little.

        After digging through the piles of clothing, I found this brand new, tag still attached, light-wash denim button up shirt. *Golden.* This is the perfect step up from the regular sweaters or cotton t-shirts; as it combines both causal and put together. This shirt can also be paired with almost anything, which for Chris' lifestyle, this is quite ideal.

        Next, I decided to pair the shirt with a classic black jean, and his worn-in tan desert boots.

        All in all, Chris enjoyed both the exposure to a different type of learning and the surprise in remembering that he had this shirt in his wardrobe. Needless to say, that he learnt two things; have a better organized wardrobe and that he enjoys art museums very much.
