Justin Timberlake Steps Up His Fashion with a Bright Blue Coat

Justin Timberlake is a man of consistency. His personal style has changed slightly over the past 10 years in that he’s traded fedoras for beanies and added considerably more flannel to his closet to channel his inner Man of the Woods.

His latest sartorial move may be his boldest yet, and one that might re-establish him as someone with fashion worth watching. Timberlake was photographed walking around a brisk New York on Tuesday wearing white sneakers, a beanie, and a long, bright blue coat. It was a surprising choice from the man who hasn’t strayed very far from the same suits and jackets throughout the past decade.

Who knows what drove Timberlake to don the eclectic coat? Perhaps he learned that his ex Britney Spears listens to his music and it sent him into an existential panic. Maybe he wanted to make himself an easy target for the paparazzi. Or maybe he just ran out of flannels. Whatever the reason, Justin Timberlake’s style journey just got a lot more interesting to follow.
