Razele - I knew you'd like those Ervell knits. I'm eyeing that pocket sweater but can't decide on what size (TTS or size up one). Did you size it TTS and how did you find the fit in comparison to say your shirts in same size and all? Make sense?

Would love to post my Ervell buys, but Gilt hasn't sent me a shipment notification yet. Any of you other cats who ordered Ervell from the Gilt robots get shipment update yet? M-fers making me sweat it out.

That's the downfall of Ervell knits for me. Boxy and short doesn't work for me at all.

^i think you could do boxy well if you're to play a bit with proportions, but yeah, the length of ervell knits would be a problem. they're generally too short for me, and i'm 6'2" (i'm guessing you're taller)

RE: Panta

The cut works good in the context I think, pants aren't jeans and I like that.

Will kop light grey an dark grey worsteds and a tan gabardine all with side adjustors

yea the hat isnt worth that much at all....

and i figure polo has the look that catches the ladies attention in a bar/club environment.For the most part i wear clothes that have no logos and most ladies overlook like alfani, etro and even calvin clien without logos. in other words i dress to impress the ladies when i go out but for the most part i like silk shirts and linen.

SMFH, size US 38 are clown pants.

Most people around here go with no logos or something very discreet. With this approach, ladies are impressed by the sharp cut of your suit, and you don't need a rhinestone "D&G" on your back.

i went to barneys ny and they didnt have **** there. they loved my pink MMM pullover though so everyone in the store was telling me which cool stores to check out. i got a list of them including betty lin which sells clothing on deep discount from previous seasons. They had Neil Barrett, Number Nine, sometimes MMM from what they told me, and some other stuff. I browsed through quickly cuz i was in a rush. I'll take pics in a sec.

i.e. you want jeans or chinos.

Have you worn the pullover alone yet? I got the light blue one and like it pretty well without a button up underneath
