Awesome looks VoG and SG. Keep posting.

SG: love the Dior. Super sharp looking. I think you should rock the teddy more. Looks great on you. I don't think it's loud. lol.

VoG: Really like both coats. That camel colour really pops against the black, very cool.

Purchased this week a new pair of malibu sneakers in full leather from the official offline SL boutique. Thats the quality of the shoes i got. torn seam, hole under the insole. Stuff in the boutique denied to admit its a defect , instead created some repair request to the HQ and asked me to wait undefined amount of time for their resolution lol

Looks horrendous - have never seen anything like it. How can they not accept a return for that?

Pardon my ignorance, but what is an official offline boutique, did you mean online webstore? I don't think I've ever run into a quality issue with a Saint Laurent item (but I have with a couple Celine pieces!).

I meant that the shoes were purchased in Saint Laurent store. Not online. To be precise it was Saint Laurent store in Bangkok in Icon Siam shopping mall. After the purchase I wore it for one day and only then noticed the defect as it was under the insole, so it cant be seen until you remove the insole.
The store manager told me “we are not in Canada or USA where you can wear clothing for a month and then return it because you don’t like it, here it doesn't work that way”.

To my direct question “do you agree it’s a manufacturing defect” he decided not to answer instead created a repair ticket. The problem Is that I’m visiting Bangkok as a tourist and don’t have much time to wait for the resolution of an obvious case. I wrote to the customer service at ysl.com and got similar response
“I have done a check in our repair ticketing system and your shoes is pending for our repair specialist’s assessment. We seek your kind understanding as our repair team would take a longer time during this holiday period.”

They still assessing with no firm timeframe whether it is a manufacturing defect or it can be considered as norm so I should take back the shoes and enjoy this masterpiece from the shoe world.

Quickly took a picture with the playboy sweater - really like it. Glad I took a S to make it slightly more fitted.
Also pictured : SLP Coated Jeans, SLP Suede harness boots and Commes Des Garcons Coat

Also added some pictures on some other things I picked up.
2nd pic : Distressed velour hoodie
3rd pic : black/white officer shirt - paired with the classic teddy

My mirror is angled so proportions look a bit funny.

I'm not really big on taking photos of myself, so even this super crappy one was a result of major exertion. However, I'm loving this recent pinstripe acquisition in combination with the Wyatts way too much to not share.

It will be insanely superfluous to wear a 4000 euro outfit to a student Christmas party - however there are maybe one or two events a year where I get to whip out a suit, so I am going to damn well enjoy it! I guess this is one of the perks of being an adult student. Not like anyone will even recognize it, anyways.

PS: The drying rack is not a part of the fit.

Looks impeccable. Rock that suit as much as you can; wearing impeccable clothes will pay for themselves and much more quickly in terms of ROI.

I agree. Never understood paying a lot of money for something only to be worn twice a year.

I wear my Celine,SLP. etc as much as possible. Doesn't matter if I'm going to target, movies,dinner. I'm overdressed 99.9% of the time and I don't care.


now wear that outfit to your student Christmas party and be the best dressed motherfucker there!

I mostly lurk in this thread to check out fit pics, since I'm not really an SLP guy, but this is 100% it. Wearing Iron Heart and Alden to go to Target? Hell yes. In fact, sometimes I'll go to Target just as an excuse to get dressed.

Hey @daniel2001 can we get an update on your l01?
I actually just got it today. And it fits great I'm glad.
With a t shirt it fits perfect, with a hoodie it's a bit tight but it's fine cause I'll primarily be weering it with a t shirt anyway. Will post a fit pic when I style it properly. Next on my list are the black leather harness boots. Do you know the differences between the different seasons exactly? Apparently they keep changing the leather and the size of the shaft. And how much do you think they are worth for a good deal?
