    Re: Your recent purchases

    Recently bought CCP dark grey Ramie jacket. Nicest thing I've ever bought, if not the most comfortable. The arms are cut narrower than any shirt I have!

          What good taste you have. [Y] I got the same scarf, but with the metallic chains. And the navyxblack scarf for my bf.

                Ramie is an organic fiber that adds softness and depth of color (due to just a bare visible sheen). The wool/ramie jacket Ann did this season had a darker black color and a softer feel the 100% wool one.

                  Yes I think it's a kind of grass or something similar. It is actually quite linen-like, but more dense, creases quite a lot. Because the arms are so snug you sort of get permanent creaes at the elbows and shoulders. I wasn't sure about that to begin with but now I quite like it. It's sort of like how his shoes go, if you think about it. I will try to post pic of me wearing it, although I'm a bit tech-lite at the moment due to house move, but it's the jacket that's on the Barney's japan website.

                      Faust, what a coincidence that I got exactly the same scarf for my gf as a gift.



                      Just found out about the sales at aloha today, and I profited by getting two more items from Ann Dem.



                      This jacket in small:






                      And this hoodie in XXS






                      It's funny how Ann's size mixed cashmere-wool sweaters always run on the larger size... I always have to get an XXS to fit me.

                            [/quote]what's your usual size? I picked up an XS in that sweater. I hope it fits... I'm usually a US 38.
