Los Angeles, Aug 27 (IANS): Singer Nick Jonas says his biggest fashion faux pas was wearing bow ties for every occasion.

"Bow ties are great, but there's a time and place for them. Bow ties for everyday wear is maybe not the best move, and I was doing that for a minute," Jonas was quoted as saying by Billboard magazine, reports femalefirst.co.uk.

The 22-year-old singer says his fashion choices reflect who he is as a performer.

"I like classic elements but with bolder statements. Your clothing and approach to fashion are the visual statements you make as a performer or a songwriter. I've been getting into the fancy sweatpants trend - the sweatpants-you-can-wear-to-work kind of vibe. Public School is doing a very cool job with that."

And Jonas' fashion staple is a leather jacket.

"A classic black leather jacket. Mine is Margiela and I take it everywhere I go. If it's a two-day trip or a two-month trip, it's with me," he said.
