John Krasinski
Posted August 23rd, 2008 by admin
You've probably seen his eclectic range of "Jim faces" as friendly slacker Jim Halpert on NBC's "The Office." But what about the man behind the mug? Boston native John Krasinski is in some ways much like his character - a hard-working, decent guy who likes to hang out with his friends and shoot some hoops. But John's way more ambitious than Jim ever will be - a Brown University alum, John works not only as an actor, but also as a writer and director as well. His adaptation of "Brief Interviews with Hideous Men" is set to hit the screens later this year. Other upcoming projects include a Sam Mendes comedy with SNL star Maya Rudolph, not to mention the fifth season of the most hilarious workplace sitcom ever.
John hasn't let L.A. get to him - he's still most comfortable in a t-shirt and jeans, and often is seen out and about in casual but stylish clothes. Doing his own thing on camera and behind the camera, and pulling it off with an individual and unique sense of style - that's what being a Brofessional is all about.

If you took just one hint from the NYC Fashion Week runway, it should be simple: think striped.
Hot on the 08-09 runways is an oldie but a goodie: plaid!
When it comes to ties in 2008, less is more.
With Wall Street in unprecedented territory, nothing is certain. When people get scared, we like to revert back to the familiar – whether it’s an ex-girlfriend, your mother’s mac and cheese, or that darned security blanket.
