Last week, when Le1f performed "Wut" on Late Show With David Letterman and made his TV debut in Hood by Air and actual snow boots, we had no idea that a week later we'd be gifted a video for "Boom." IDK about you, but after watching this video all I wanna do is avoid diners and ride shotgun in a Jeep. It looks like my weekend plans have just been confirmed. We got the deets on the video's fashion, styled by Prince Franco, from the rapper himself, so let's not waste any more time—to the clothes!

The video begins outside the diner, with Le1f in not one, but two jackets. Winter 2014 was the winter of two jackets #polarvortex. The first is a Diesel denim jacket, and the other a Pelle Pelle leather jacket. Underneath the two jackets is a black-and-white Y-3 tank that reads "ANTI."

Suddenly, Le1f is inside and in his "work uniform" for the diner. Between you and me, it's a full white Diesel denim suit, so IDK how much work can really be done in it. Maybe the crippling fear of ketchup is why he rolls out after some shoulder shimmying.

Once he leaves work, he's in his best look, IMHO. It's not the outfit he arrived wearing, but Mugler leather pants, a monochromatic DKNY-print jacket, and a ~bedazzled~ Brooklyn Nets jersey. Since my after-work outfits usually consist of stained T-shirts and sweatpants, I think I'm fancy when the shirt isn't stained. Le1f's look is next level. I have to try harder.

The final look is not from Le1f, but a young woman who has discovered the perfect outfit to stand on cars in. It's not any of the DKNY looks we've seen Rita Ora in on cabs in New York, but a Detroit Red Wings shirt and a fur coat. This will be my look all next winter.
