Random fashion thoughts

[GoldenTribe]

Certainly no-one had any idea that perspective existed.

EDIT: Moving on, has anyone seen these Carven fw13 tees/sweatshirts with prints by Michael Wolf?

From Oki-Ni: "Inspired by work spaces, Carven have collaborated with artist Michael Wolf on a selection of designs for AW13. This t-shirt is printed with an image from his Transparent City series- a collection of voyeuristic photographs depicting high-rise cityscapes."

I thought Givenchy and (post-McQueen) McQueen had put me off all-over prints, but I like this. It reminds me of Collateral when Jamie Foxx sees Tom Cruise stalking Jada Pinkett Smith in the office building from outside.

I just realized that the only two pairs of non-indigo denim that I actually wear had a Robert Geller hand in them - one pair is a pair of Cloak oversized peglegs from 2004. the other is a pair of black cinchback jeans from 2011. Oi. And I have plenty of other pants. Just not worn...

Left hollywood at 1130 and got stuck in a chp freeway shutdown to clear some **** by staples on the 10, furious we managed to get out of it and then flying down the 5 got stuck in another ******* freeway shutdown. Pulled a jack move, exited real quick as the blockage was formed all of a sudden, went down olympic then jumped on this street leading to the 710S onramp and what do you know onramp shut down there too wtf. Drove down random surface streets in east LA shadowing the 5 and found an isolated onramp while checking the street grids on my nav. Absolutely ******* ridiculous, god knows how long everyone was stuck in that ****.

I assume the 405 to the 10 wasn't an option.

Spoiler: Warning: Spoiler!

Wasn't meant to be serious. I know nothing about Los Angeles roadways.

Is there a term for one who buys stuff on sale and then tries to flip it?

Capitalist
There are many descriptors one could use

If I'm wrong in my assumption please forgive me and ignore this, but...Is this because of the whole sz debacle? I don't get it, everyone else had the opportunity to buy them on sale, and nobody is forced to pay the asking price. Sounds like an undue sense of entitlement...

If there's a better use for $5k+ worth of software, I haven't found it.

I actually had someone buy one of my old DH leathers and flip it....

 

[zapatiste]

I don't understand your point, if someone was willing to pay more there was nothing preventing you from asking for a higher price.

Personally I never try to profit unreasonably, usually aim for breaking even whenever possible, and have often hooked up good prices for the homies.
But that's just me and I'd never presume to force my views on anyone else, however seemingly unjust the business model may seem...oh well
