    Very nice! I was going to buy one myself, but the prices are ridiculously high here.

        I bought a pair of CCP trousers. I take back all the negative comments I made about CCP before, I hadn't tried on the right pieces. Now, I need a long coat... perhaps in a few years I'll be able to afford it.

            I'll glady post pictures when I'll pick them up the 6th, they're getting their hems done. I like that the waist his really high, I've been getting into high waisted pants a lot these days, I think it looks good on skinny, lanky frames.

            I tried on another pair of CCP that were also very nice, but they were just a tiny tiny bit too tight. Might snatch them if they come on sale and try to tailor them a bit, but then again, I'm pretty much broke right now.

              Careful about letting out the waist. I once saw a pair where a guy let the waist out and the thread line was already lived in and therefore discolored.

                I was more thinking about moving the buttons just a bit, it was very close to a perfect fit. I don't want to risk messing such a nice garment, especially with all the nice stitches and linings inside.

                  Ann Dem sweater from Barney's sale. Sheer luck, as it was nowhere to be seen a week ago.

                      It's beautiful, laika! I love that knit, it's so delicate.

                        Wow laika, that knit is fantastic! I really need to get my hands on some Ann D. Finally got another pair of boots (so you don't have to see "miu miu boots" in every "what are you wearing today" post anymore)! Dior chelsea's from eluxury sale. Strange thing is, they are advertised and shown as grey chelsea's, but now that I have them they are actually a medium brown color with a bit of a patina. It's not problem though, before they went I sale I wanted brown boots (to compliment my black ones) and they are really beautiful. But still, it's strange, I've seen the grey boots in person and these definitately are not them.



                        Right now I'm wearing them around the house to make sure they're comfortable, last pair of Dior sneaks I bought a size too small, they felt good in store but when I walk around for awhile my toes feel crushed, but so far the boots feel good.

                          Hard to say how they look from the picture, but they should be a good classic piece in your wardrobe. I hope Buttero still produces DH footwear, then you are in good hands quality-wise.

                            Here's a better pic since at don't have anything better to do at the moment (set against my lovely piano bench), the flash has made them appear a little lighter then they are. They seem to be of excellent quality, can any confirm if the shoes are still made by Buttero?

                              Wicked boots!





                              Those seem to be a perfect color, especially if they are a bit darker as you say.

                                Nice boots!



                                Thanks for the comments guys. I hesitated for a split second because it wasn't black, but the light color is really lovely, like a cobweb. I also got a Y's knit from yoox that I was lusting over at the Yohji boutique this summer. Kind of hard to photograph though, and yoox did a really crap job.
