H&M visual merchandiser, Mark Jssn, was analyzing the (super sold out) Marni for H&M window displays when we stopped him on Powell St.  Mark moved up to SF five years ago, from San Jose, and says he loves the city for, "the diversity of people and because SF is so laid back." And we love Mark's look for the nicely mixed (loose/tight) proportions and (high/low) brands.  

What he's wearing:  Grey cap from H&M; Shirt from H&M; Balenciaga zippered denim pants; Self-designed and custom made necklaces; Nixon watch; Vintage black and brown leather boots.
