    [quote user="ddohnggo"]

    stopped by atelier today, and my awesome gf bought me this yohji shirt:

    Excellent purchase - I guess you should marry such a girl ;-0. I would definitely recommend adding a tank and layering it on top of the long sleeve - it looks awesome.





    On a side note - with all these CCP purchases, I think it's time we dropped Carol an email for some special orders or something!

      OMG, I said that when I was in Stockholm, lol. It's amazing how vastly influential American pop culture on the rest of the world.

      Surf and skate wear is the same thing. I can't tell you how much stuff I have sold overseas from when I worked in that industry.

        Pics of the CCP oxfords:









        They fit perfectly (which I admit, I was kind of worried about even though I got exact measurements). I think the carrier thing is kind of cute, honestly. I also think the paper-lined interior is a nice touch.



        Now I just need to find a good cobbler somewhere near Detroit and I'll be set to wear them all the time.



        And, as a result of this purchase, I'm not buying anything else until fall, hahaha.

            Thanks, Casius!
            I ended up getting size 9 after talking a little with Gentry. I was just glad they still had them when I called in my order.

                I'm sure you already know, but when I talked with one of the SA's at Maxfields, they said they 'might' get them in, but they never really know when. Although the SA didn't know for sure because the buyer wasn't there that day.

                  Thanks a bunch soultek! I work as a commercial photographer so I'm glad these shots look all right.



                  Regarding the shoes, I really can't express how much I'm taken by them. I do hope Maxfield's gets them in so you can see them because they're worth every cent.

                    Picked up this Junya Watanabe coat - I hope it fits. Been needing a coat for a long time - this looks like a great compromise between Wall St. and fun.

                    I am UBER-pissed. Medium, my ass - this coat is an XS in reality. Back it goes, and I am fairly upset (and I haven't been upset about not buying a piece of clothing in a while), because it fits in length perfectly, and it's a really gorgeious non-black color and the fabric is awesome. If someone size 46 is looking for a good coat - this is the winner.

                      I agree - the picture #2 that exposes the less distressed upper portion of the shoe makes them look much more attractive.

                              It's a good piece, a classic - you'll have to be careful with the color though. I wish Margiela would go back to using the chunky RY zippers - I think they were half the allure of the jacket.

                                I really like the white!



                                Are the rider's jackets always Line 14?



                                I saw two men on (two) vintage Vespas and (two different) Margiela leather jackets a few weeks back. It was a funny mishmash of mod and Belgian and fabulous that ended up working.
