Halloween is around the corner and Steve Jobs’ passing has led to an influx of people who want to pay tribute to the inspirational and creative business leader by DRESSING LIKE STEVE JOBS FOR HALLOWEEN.

- wire-rim glasses (or not, he’s done both).
- Grey/pepper beard (or not, he’s done both).
- Black Men’s Mockneck Sweater by St. Croix

- New Balance Men’s M992 Running Shoe

But that didn’t sway Steve from implementing the idea for himself. Plus, the simplicity of his clothes never detracted from what he was trying to say or do. People paid attention to him, his words, his presentation — and never gave a second thought to the fact that one of the richest, most influential men in the world, was merely wearing comfortable jeans and a simple shirt.
It’s said that Steve Jobs had famed Japanese designer Issey Miyake
Just remember to tuck the shirt into your jeans, and don’t wear a belt.
It’s at this point in our story that Web Watch will share what will probably be this year’s winning Halloween costume entry in many costume contests around the country this year.
Sadly, it’s “ZOMBIE STEVE JOBS“. Yeah, still too soon.
