PC New Standards in size 30 directly from APC's mail order number care of my girlfriend. Should make a nice birthday present, if I do say so myself.

Kudos to Denimbar for helping with a sizing question. I had every intention of ordering through them but as APC keeps putting off sending them their inventory we decided to order them directly so they'd be here by my birthday. However, I plan on ordering some APC NCs or possibly some Thin Finns or Grim Tims so I'll be using that purchase to support Denimbar for being such a good affiliate and always taking care of the folks around here.

True.

Luckily I got 40 off back then.

Just got in the 5 AA v necks i bought on ebay - thought i'd give them a go, $45 shipped (as opposed to ~ $20 each from the aussie AA site). They're a touch tight in the shoulder + arm, and a touch too long; but decent enough. Why don't the v necks come in the same colours as the crew necks ?

They do come in the same colors. Maybe the ebay seller didn't have all the colors or something. Nice cardi, jet. Is that all one piece or is there just layering for the photo?

The silver part is the inner part of the placket (metallic thread) and it goes all around, super gangsta!

I saw this at the Seattle Barneys today. Probably the best JS piece this season from what I've seen. It is very difficult to add metallic fabrics to a sweater and still be able to use the word "subtle" to describe it.

Sadly, most cardigans make my shoulders look too slopey, and this one is no exception.

I agree definitely the star piece though a boutique here has some wonderful jil pieces that barneys never picked up which I have also. The cardigan fits me like a coat of armor it's just perfect, definitely one of my favorite pieces ever since I saw it.

Unfortunately this isn't the case - even on the American Apparel website, only 23 colours for the vneck, as opposed to about 40 for the crew neck. Neck discrimination

Entropy nice watch man. I bought a Seamaster 300 Chrono M a few months ago. You'll get use to the heft

By golly you're right. Although, my monitor can't really distinguish between some colors well. Discrimination indeed. I wear mostly Vs.
