Manic (without the panic)

• Who he is: Jaron Pearlman
• What he’s wearing: Striped pants from Marshall’s, pink retro Converse All-Stars from TJ Maxx, handmade jewelry.
• Why we love it: Wearing colors bright enough to qualify for Harajuku street style, Jaron stands out on Lexington Ave. “I usually dress like this,” admits this fashionista, who — in free-spirited style — has doffed his shirt to enjoy a warm spring day. “I get my inspiration from my friends, who also dress like this.” Extra points for matching footwear and hair color.
