A Closer Look at Jay Z's Barneys Holiday Collection

Ball so hard like Hov with these 15 fresh picks.

Just Don Mixed Exotics Brooklyn Cap - You may have to break into your piggy bank to score pieces from Jay Z's "A New York Holiday" collection for Barneys, but we think the luxurious range of designer T-shirts, jackets and accessories, which Hov co-designed, are kind of fly. From now until January 3, 2014, 100 percent of sales will be donated to the Shawn Carter Foundation, which provides scholarships to low-income students.   These 15 looks are definitely at the top of our wish list.   When a classic snapback simply won’t do, upgrade to this slick python skin and leather cap ($875) emblazoned with the rapper’s beloved hometown.  (Photo: Barneys New York)
