This led me to finding out Decarnin was replaced by some young gun Olivier Rousteing (25 with 2 and change years at Balmain and 5 at Cavalli which is ridiculously impressive, though I doubt he has formal instruction so who's to say how he does at the head of the label). They're also starting up a diffusion this Fall (though I doubt it'll have menswear) and that Balmain jacket with the fur hood is teh awesome. FW11 is probably my favorite season in a few years and I haven't even finished looking at all the collections (Bottega, BOTTEGA!) even Varvatos had a number of things I liked

Finally decided to pull the trigger on this Burberry London coat I was going back and forth on (mostly about sizing). Figured if it was a little off, I'd take it to a tailor and have some work done. I get to the site, and I can't find it. Pull up the live chat window, and it turns out that all of the coats that didn't sell last season have been sent to an outlet.

Unless it was made in USA or England (not likely), waste of money. Step your game up to Prorsum level.

Most jackets have the buttonholes already sewn, they just need to be cut open (which is to say, it takes half a second with a seam ripper)

I have never heard of a situation where the payment instrument would not set you right, but paypal would. Picture a big circle with a little circle inside. Big circle is claims that bank/credit card will give you your money, little circle is paypal. Not much of a ven diagram. Credit card especially there's not a whole lot a merchant/seller can do if you have even a valid claim your credit card will side with you. They are too big to care and paypal is too sheisty to match them on that. It's like car accidents. The system/law/police whatever pretty much just assumes that whoever is hind-most is at fault because it's not worth figuring out that stuff. Same thing with credit cards. My friends who run various small online businesses hate how this works because they've been burned by fake chargebacks many times, but accept it and factor it in as cost of doing business. Enough people apparently don't realize how this works, or aren't sheisty enough to abuse to really make it a huge problem...
Mildly unrelated, but my bank recently sent me a new card due to suspicious activity on my account but didn't cancel/refund any purchases. Should have tried to get them to cover my Whistler trip and blamed it on some dirty Canadian hippiester

edit - this is also my final post on this stupid subject.

i did get promoted to an associate last year ... i was an analyst for a couple years prior.

dont forget to continue to stalk me. thank you!

After your post KitAkira I suppose I am not the only one right now who is going over Fall/Winter collections and picking up pieces that I want to get. Difficult process since I am trying to cut it down to 10 items and reasonable prices.

The green Lanvin loafers are already off the list because they retail for $990 on Lanvin.com. The Burberry Prorsum tree sweater as well, I wasn't expecting it to run upwards to $1400, crazy pills.

man, I called this **** before he even bought them, but seriously, he should just man up when he buys **** and say he will probably end up selling them anyways. didn't even put them on sufu.

Flirting with the idea of putting patches and **** all over my green "no more war" Junya jacket.

I mean I want to stick with exaggerated Americana with a preppy focus for this summer, bit come fall I really want to start messing around with some more camo and go for a disgruntled Vietnam vet thing

go for it.

New Junior Boys album comes out tomorrow.

Also, I'm going to get a tank top screen-printed with something Phillies-related to make myself seem like less of a weirdo outsider than I actually am, at least around my neighborhood.

Just do it yourself? Costs maybe $30 for the set up, much less if you just iron something on. Infinitely cooler though

I remember their debut album, it was so good! They sound great live too. I'm kind of behind with the new music but check this guy out, BLOOD ORANGE. I pretty much like anything that is R&B. A bit of Prince.
