God yes that is cheap, I would've snagged if they had a small, although a medium might work as well really.

In terms of the one on the right, I actually think the price is good on that one. I own it in a medium and the thing is really nice, great texture and very loose knit and airy. Knitted in Peru so those guys know their knits.

More Ervell, I went with the jeans.

You know I keep seeing them and thinking I should give them a shot, I don't know. They look great though. Post a fit when you get it.

I don't know, but I'd be fine with that so long as they keep adding new things.

They must have, that's the pocket sweater from this past season isn't it? I was thinking the orginal price was lower (for a change) than what it really was.

*******

yeah on Ervell's website its listed at $300. It probably is SS 2010, the summer jeans I got at the last sale were, and the colorway that was for sale was offered this season

It's my first Ervell piece so I am pretty excited. it was a toss up between these and the green oxide club shirt. I wish I could have gotten both but funds are tight right now. These jeans might not work with my body type so maybe they will end up on B&S for you to buy, haha

Yes, it is the Pima Cotton version from this season. Retail price was of course not 150.

I haven't yet actually. I've been eyeing the B&S for the navy fair isle alpaca, but never showed up in a small, but I imagine they're fantastic. Baby alpaca is some nice stuff. I've owned plenty of hand knit alpaca sweaters from Ecuador and they're up there with my favorites.

I'm sure it won't be an issue. I have the wool version from last FW season and it's sweet. If fits a bit ling in the sleeves but nothing a tailor can't handle. If it fits I'm sure you'll like the cotton version.

what size did you go with? I ended up going with the xs (i used the measurements from the similar looking parachute coat on their site, which listed xs at 19.5ptp, though the sm and xs were pretty similar)

Yeah exactly, I was thinking that was it as soon as I saw it. Whoever snagged that in their proper size just bent Gilt over on that one.

PS: I went with a small, my standard size on the wool version of the coat. Fits good in the shoulders, slightly big in the pit, but I'd be wearing over sweaters and possibly suits so it works out.

Haha I have the 32 in my cart so who knows. Softy had that one in the B&S at the start of the season from a sample sale and it looked stupendous in his pics. They have silk lining which adds a luxe touch. If you're a slimmer build, they'll work for you. I just wasn't sure on foowear to go with the color other than white sneaks.

I might not be slim enough to pull them off. I guess we'll see. I plan to wear them with my gats

I thought about the pocket knit but that thing is just to bright for me

Picked up the snap button cardi but might return it. Also got black jeans, the short sleeve "sweatshirt" (I actually think it's this: http://www.patrikervell.com/product/...t-shirt/white), and both the navy and the grey shorts.

Anyone who picked up the pocket sweater in Small please let me know if it doesn't work out for you.

picked up these Margielas. got them in size 42 but i think i need a size 43. if anyone wants them i'll let them go for my cost plus shipping (around $450). otherwise i'll exchange them (they come with distressing on the toe, heel and a few other places, fyi)
