And it\u2019s not just the high-fashion world that\u2019s catching on to JFK Jr.\u2019s styling codes. On TikTok<\/a>, there are several posts dedicated to spotting JFK Jr.-inspired looks out in the wild. \u201cNYC guys are really out here looking for their Carolyns,\u201d wrote one TikTok user,<\/a> showing a man in his backwards cap. Other TikTokers are more up-front<\/a> about drawing on his looks, serving up #outfitofthedays in their best JFK Jr. drag.<\/p>\n

You are not a Kennedy! You are just wearing a baseball cap and an oxford!\u201d<\/p>\n

That, of course, is the danger of trying to replicate such a well-documented look: something about the original spirit and approach will always be missing. That being said, there are worse fads to follow! If a finance bro wants to jazz up his Wall Street uniform with a cheeky little shoulder sweater or saucy little hat, we say let \u2019em. Bonus points if you also walk around with an adorable pup<\/a> named Friday.<\/p>\n
