yeah, fox please get roomier trousers for the next make. if it looks like this from the front it can't be a nice silhouette from the back.

also i think if you're going to get trousers that high rise, you should get them pleated. it looks kinda weird otherwise (like there's too much spare fabric)

@elisiX looks good man!

@sinnedk and @Lorcan7 - I see where you are coming from and the fit does look a bit heavy. Gosh, I love that shirt though ... and da pants. Thanks for the pointers that gave me already some ideas. Stick around for more joy soon ...

Wearing my 3x1 Biker jeans and a clean pink shirt today for my last day at the convalescent home - I'm waiting on my last 3 pairs of jeans to arrive and my closet will be full for a while.

Already starting to plan 2015 kopping list so hope that my collection of coats, shirts, jeans and boots will keep me going until then!

I love these biker jeans and will wear them all summer-3x1 make some great jeans and have a huge selection of rare and unique Japanese denims for custom and bespoke orders!

They're pretty price but I think that they're worth it as I'm a jeansaholic!

@RegisDB9 Could be the lighting/camera, but I wish the knit and trousers had just a bit more separation in brightness – either the top were lighter or the pants were darker. The lightest-colored parts of the shirt with the darkest-colored parts of the pants together look great. But the median of both look like two colors look not monochrome enough.

My favorite Margiela seasons and the ones that made a huge fan (S/S09 and S/S10) did a lot of cream and gray in colors that were very similar to each other but barely noticeable, this is what I was going for. I purposely wanted the colors as close as possible. Like this but in blue

I'm still a raw jeans fanatic - these 3x1 Biker jeans were half price in the sale, but my jeans on order are all Selvedge jeans!:)

Today I'm (finally back from convalescence!) wearing:

Thomas Pink pink end on end shirt - bought 4 identical ones on sale because they were like 75% off!

3x1 Kurabo 13oz XX71 stone bleach Selvedge custom jeans - too hot for even me to wear my Kurabo 21oz jeans

I wonder how long I'll manage this jeans ban (still waiting for 2 pairs from me and 1 pair from my boyfriend to complete the line up of 12 pairs:))

I've starting my 2015 kopping list already so I have an incentive not to max out my credit cards with even more jawnz!!!!

@RegisDB9 If you feel you – that cream monochrome fit is good. I'm into it. But in that photo, the three pieces are nearly identical. The knit and trousers you've got aren't close enough to my eye to pull that off. If it looks right to you in person, though, I defer.
