at the Desert Hills outlet I saw this blue/white pinstripe blazer at Dolce & Gabbana store, it was a sick blazer for going out, night out on the town. very slim and perfect with dark jeans. from $900 to $450.
I was told to wait till April when it goes down even more, i think i should get it. i wish i had a photo of it, you all will like it.

What's interesting about them? They're slippers pretty much. Do you need house shoes?

As far as **** kickers to go grab some groceries in whatever lounge clothes you have on, you'd probably do better getting the black canvas boat shoes they have on their site. I just don't like the look of those things linked

^They're not my style and AE gets a lot of hate here, but I'd say if you can pull it off, you can't go wrong trying them for $20. I've seen some durable stuff from AE, and those aren't logo'd to hell.

To the guy w/ the skull/wings/wolf ring.......no. Just.....no.

obeserabbit, I like it. It's not my favorite variation of red tartan (I prefer the kind without squares behind the checks that has royal blue lines in it. Nevertheless, it looks like a fun F/W piece.

Gap - elevated low rise skinny (rigid denim rinse) jeans.
gp624548-00p01v01.jpg
http://www.gap.com/browse/product.do...scid=624548002 I really want to try the selvage jeans thing, but I have to concerns. One, I tried on a pair of APC NS's and I'm not sure I can deal with how tight they fit. I'm out of shape, but improving, and the "right" size (a 33) seemed a little much for my liking. Right now I wear Sevens Slouchy (I know I know) and Paper Denim & Cloth Boot Cut for day-to-day and Lucky Slim Boot for going out. Two, $155 + $20 to get them hemmed seems a little much if I'm not even sure I'm going to like the process/look of selvage. The Gap jeans are $88 and with the short inseams I can get the right size without alterations. (Yea, I'm an uber-noob when it comes to this side of SF) Also, and I guess this should go in the jeans question thread, if I go with Gap, or if you talk me out of it, what size should I get? My dress pants size is about a 35, but I swear that's trending down in the next two months. Thanks a ton!

I think "elevated" is there best line of denim? Sounded oxy-moronic to me as well, but I get the feeling the fit is a little baggier than a true skinny jean, which might be good for me and my slightly fat ass (for the record, I'm not that out of shape, I'm just a little annoyed with myself at the moment).
