Been trying to rebuild my wardrobe from the ground up with some nicer basics - any opinions? I'm on the fence at the moment.

Heh. They really are knocking RO this season.

I heard it was decent stuff though. If you're looking to experiment with the edgy stuff on a budget, HL looks to be the way to go these days.

For $160
I would prefer a boot like this in black though, can't seem to find any. Or if there's a better value boot for under $300 can someone please reccommend? Thanks.


The Varvatos Boots at the last Gilt sale looked a lot nicer than what I expected and were around $150. I think they will be around again, so you might want to keep an eye out. N.D.C. has some on Yoox right now that look fantastic, but sizing is mixed and they are still over $300 with the 10% off coupon.

Does this company even respond to e-mails? Every time I've emailed customer support, they don't even bother to respond. Maybe if I sent my questions in French they'd be more responsive.

I got a response after just one business day in regards to some question about their Black Friday plans (they told me just to keep checking my email). Maybe your question was too sensitive?

I'd say you can only buy that hoodie if you can....

1. Explain to us whom Captain Westwood is
2. Why you wish to be associated with him
3. And everyone here agrees that your association with him would be wise

It's a vivienne westwood hoodie, I've come to the consensus that Vivienne Westwood takes the piss so much that you can't tell when she's being serious, she makes both very bad and very good clothing, this seems to be an example of the former.

well, yah, but part of the whole point of wearing her clothing is to take the piss yourself.

Ditto. If you can sport it that way, for sure.

So true. Girls with real style are hard to come by, and so hard to get the right fit.

I have profound respect for her and her attitude. If she came in a cute girl format, I'd marry her.
