Why choose? Lady Gaga covered in soda.

Probably the theme of her next video though, so don't overpay...

All of those are awesome. If you don't mind me asking, what were the prices? LP sales here typically suck.

Outlet price is between 40-60% off RRP, and this was an extra 30% on top. Still not cheap, to be honest, but good value for items like these that should last a while. Of course, some of it is still wacky pricing: those  cashmere button-up shirts they do were around £600, even at outlet price. Can't imagine they last terribly long, and imagine the dry-cleaning bill! They also have a clearance section with, IIRC, 70%+ off, but the extra discount didn't apply there, not that there was anything in my size in it anyway.

Thanks! Wearing the cardigan today; it's really warm yet light. Very comfy.

Not exactly a new purchase, but I had to get my C&J Welbecks resoled so figured it might be worth posting pics of the finished work as a reference, in case others ever want to use the factory's service. New sole, new heel, new laces, and I think a new insole too, a clean-up generally, and of course a quick polish. Took about 6 weeks (which was the figure originally quoted) and the price came to £135 (plus postage which being within the UK was pretty cheap). Sorry, didn't think to take any "before" pics, but rest assured they did a nice job IMO.
