Humphrey Bogart was the ultimate hero in "Casablanca." The image of him in his trench coat and hat is timeless.

Difficulty: Moderately Easy
Instructions

Things You'll Need:

  1. Step 1

    Work on a five o'clock shadow.

  2. Step 2

    Don a neutral-colored trench coat over a button-down shirt and neutral-colored cuffed trousers.

  3. Step 3

    Tie a sloppy knot in the belt of the trench coat.

  4. Step 4

    Put on a wide-brimmed hat with a black band. It can be darker than the trench coat.

  5. Step 5

    Tilt the hat down toward your eyes.

  6. Step 6

    Act seriously intense as you walk.

Tips & Warnings
  • Rent "Casablanca" to get in the mood - and because it's a great film.
