Ok so...

For the summer I have determined that I want various Britons to be my style influences among them being:

Pete Doherty
Mark Ronson
Orlando Bloom

There is something very intriguing about whats going on in mens fashion right now especially across the pond. But I have a few problems:

Who else should I be lookin at for style pointers?
What should I be wearing?
Where should I shop?
etc

Ummm.. yeah..so any help would be greatly appreciated. Oh yeah, Im def not as thin as those guys (but def not fat either 6'1 bout 190) and Im Black (if that even matters..lol).. so yeah any help would be SUPER

You do like Pete Doherty fashion style? Skinny jean ,shirts and skinny ties..
Here ,he is more famous for going out with Kate Moss than eveything else,except his heavy drug-taking...
He is still part of Babyshambles but the Libertines were a lot better...
