As we reported, on Friday Brad Pitt arrived at the San Sebastian International Film Festival to promote Inglourious Basterds. For his first appearance, Brad was looking very scruffy as he basically participated in an involuntary photocall out on the street. He was rocking a really messy goatee-beard thing, aviator sunglasses, a bomber jacket and jeans. It’s always weird to see Brad in those kinds of low-key situations, because I get the feeling he’s quite a dandy. Like that time he wore an ascot. Shiver.
No fears, because Brad brought out his inner dandy at the formal photo call and red carpet later Friday. For the photocall, Brad groomed his goatee and looked a bit more cleaned up. He donned a beautifully tailored black suit and a blue button-down shirt that was unbuttoned one button too far, in my opinion. The best (or worst) part of the ensemble was Brad’s accessories. First, it looks like he was wearing some kind of pretty gemstone pendant-necklace. I want it. It’s really pretty, and I like where it falls on his chest. I’ve been looking for a long chain like that. Secondly, Brad was wearing black monogrammed “BP” shoes. At first, I thought they were slippers. But they are actually shoes, with a heel and everything. They look… sketchy.
My first thought when I saw the shoes was “I bet one of the kids got the shoes for him.” My second thought was “I bet Brad and Quentin Tarantino are high right now.” Well, no mention on the second thought, but Just Jared is reporting that the sketchy monogrammed shoes were a gift from one of Brad’s assistants. Does the assistant hate him? No, no – that’s very sweet of Brad, to wear something his assistant gave him.
Later, Friday evening, Brad walked the red carpet in new outfit. The “BP” shoes were still there! Those things are Brad’s newest trend, like that damn newsboy cap. Ah! Anyway, Brad was back in black. Yes, he’s still doing the Johnny Cash thing, this time in a three-piece black (silk?) suit. Now that I’m studying the suit, it might be the same one from the photocall. Brad just changed his shirt. Ah – the black suit. So versatile.
cute at least this guy makes fun of himself.
The necklace is the one that Angie gace him of a star with 8 points, the same size as their family. He wears it pretty much all the time.
those shoes are sooo tacky it hurts to look at them.
they actually take a pretty good outfit and make it look dopey. can’t think he actually agreed to wear them or asked to have his initials put on his shoes.
he must be a vain one.
White patent leather would have made him look less a nerd. Why do his look like they’re velveteen??? Besides, at his age he’s better off with LF and RF monograms…
“he must be a vain one.”
yeah that’s a logical explanation for wearing silly shoes
I bet it’s an inside joke of some sort. lol
Ewww, is that dandruff on his shoulders? I’ve heard the guy smells bad. Does he just skip showers? He looks haggard. The shoes are stupid looking.
is this dandruff on his shoulder? (second pic)
They look as tacky as Mickey Rouke’s bedroom slippers.
I think it’s pretty funny…and I agree with jag, I’ll bet it’s an inside joke.
He looks like my grandfather slightly in the header pictures. It’s that damn scruffy beard!
Those are water droplets on his shoulders rather than dandruff.
Ha! Old folks use monograms in their clothes. That explains it… he, he. Man the more I look at him the more he loses his charm.
Old, ugly and those shoes! Someone has to help this guy!
I just don’t like him and Angie they are so full of themselves and phony…yuck.
A old drunken stoned fat puffy man!
Poor Angelina, poor kids!
Brad look fine. the shoes are funny to me.. Love that he has a great sence of humor. Just so funny that we have a post on Brad’s shoes.. I guess it does not matter. Not a week can go by without a post on the jolie-pitts. gerbils..doesn’t matter..
I am a fan so I don’t care. Don’t understand why the nonfans feel the need to comment on him or her all the time.
That’s the thing about Brad Pitt his style is wayyyy to “metro” for my taste. My top men are Eric Bana, Gerard Butler, Johnny Depp and Brad Pitt. But when it comes to style Brad Pitt is too “dandy” Johnny Depp’s is too homeless, Gerard Butler dresses ok but usually looks like a typical guy who dressed himself but Eric Bana- that man knows how to dress. He can wear a suit like noone else, or jeans with a sexy leather jacket with a white tee under and look amazing. He has a classic style. Brad needs to realize that he shouldnt be wearing an ascot unless you’re a rich plantation owner form the 1860’s or you like getting it in the ass-cot.
Damn, I thought they were navy blue. I was just about to break out into a couple of choruses of Carl Perkins.
Brad’s metro-sexual side gives him unpredictability. 99% of men walking this earth sport the same look for the majority of their life. Same haircut and style of clothes. IT GETS BORING guys. Variety is the spice of life. BRAD HAS PLENTY OF SPICE. He is more fun to see because if his unpredictablity than most men walking this earth. Stop hating and take notes!
He got the shoes as a gift. He’s just wearing them to be polite. No big deal.
What a douche. And try Head and Shoulders, man, or Tegrin.
homeboy is lookin’ old. less “BP” and more ryan gosling, please! the shoes would be hilarious on someone else, but i think this guy is such an ass, i wouldnt be surprised if they ARE an inside joke and he thinks he is just TOO goddam clever for it. barf.
LOL, agree with @jag!
Lola Falana- HAHAHAHAHA! I haven’t heard of anyone mentioning Tegrin in YEARS! Gosh that made me laugh! Thanks! : )
The shoes are pretty dang funny. And he looks f*ing hot in all black, and I’ve never been a Brad fan.
Next time we get a shot of him pumping gas, I hope it’s with those shoes at a BP. That would be epic.
gorgeous man, no matter what, the shoes were a gift, he was being polite to show appreciation, love brad.
I don’t care what any of you say… Angie is one lucky woman and he could park his shoes under my bed any time he wanted to! 😛 Even those!
People need to see that Brad is a country boy from Missouri (and Baptist) and go light on him. It’s not like he’s from some savvy HW family or America’s Old Guard, for Christ’s sake.
Hahaaaa, he only a caricatur from himself!
He is only clown!!!!!!!!!!!!
Who cares, next please sorry the Brad stories are getting old..
Brad can park those shoes under my bed any time.
TwinkleToes- Yeah, we in Midwest have only recently gotten electricity and the motor car!
None of us have any fashion sense and all we do is pray, pray, pray! Ooops, gotta go, I have a prayer meeting in 5!
ROTFL! When I read that story, I imagined the monogram to be very small, very decent. Then I came to the pictures and I basically bursted into laughter! LOL!! WORST.MONOGRAMSHOES.EVER. It must be a joke as ugly as those things are. He can’t be real with it…
I love those shoes. There was a time when Hollywood was more glamour than tits and ass. Elegance was an everyday thing, not raggedy torn jeans. These speak of another time. Why not wear a monogram? I’d rather wear my own initials than someone else’s on my things.
I agree with JUDY
They both love attention so much. Poor kids to have parents that are so about themselves.
i don’t remember any Hollywood days when stars wore monograms — certainly not the ’30s and ’40s.
but i do remember more recent days when nobody wanted to be seen with designer names stamped all over their stuff.
if this poor dope can’t remember who he is without looking down at his feet, then maybe it’s time he stopped smoking that stuff he’s always talking about.
those monograms look tacky, like some low-grade thug might wear. and he looks dated in them — and makes himself look just like CB’s headline sez: he’s a dopey dandy.
The all black ensemble looks good, but the pussy beard has gotta go.
