What are you wearing today?

[zamb]

Thanks, Macro. :) BTW, I enjoyed our conversation the other day on how each of us met Dries. Definitely to be continued..

**One big collective thank you goes out to the too-numerous-to-thank-individually members for your warm welcome and lovely compliments. I had no idea what to expect by jumping in, commando-style, and posting; I'm becoming inspired to stick around and continue contributing after my 2-week trial run comes to a close.

Mirrors on the ceiling,
The pink champagne on ice
And she said we are all just prisoners here, of our own device
And in the masters chambers,
They gathered for the feast
The stab it with their steely knives,
But they just cant kill the beast

Last thing I remember, I was
Running for the door
I had to find the passage back
To the place I was before
relax, said the night man,
We are programmed to receive.
You can checkout any time you like,
But you can never leave!--------Eagles

Please, Zam, not this song, I beg you. I will kill myself. That and Besame Mucho, the two songs that have become Russian folklore. Too many parties in too many Russian restaurants and too much Grey Goose. I want to forget that. Where the fuck is mamaboy?

Ann Demeulemeester Blanche collection uneven placket white button-down shirt, worn with no-name army green skinny jeans. Boots, Ann Demeulemeester. Necklace, gift.

I like seeing a woman wearing a man's over-sized, rumpled button-down shirt. Luckily, Ann makes them for women, and cuts a mean version at that. This one is from her Blanche collection, a limited-edition capsule which re-creates one iconic item from each of her last 10 seasons. Like most Ann D shirts, this one has inner ties that cinch to control fit/create asymmetry.

do you have a better pic/closeup of that jacket? Looks very cool but I don't remember it.

Hey Faust, nice to come after you! ..hahhhaaahhaa... One phrase, so many meanings.. Sorry, couldn't resist. I know you love it...

[MikeN]

Is that the old one you were talking about the other day in another thread?

[Faust]

Hey Faust, nice to come after you! ..hahhhaaahhaa... One phrase, so many meanings.. Sorry, couldn't resist. I know you love it...

Yes, of course, although I would have preferred to come after you.

Mike, yes, that's the one. Merkuri, here is the closeup, but not a very good one, I'm afraid. It's a very intricately made jacket. Parts of it are made of wool, parts of nylon, parts cotton, parts leather, and parts of knit wool. It's especially interesting to see how Rick combined the cotton and the knit wool on the collar - pretty intricate work.

[MikeN]

Where'd you get it?

[merkuri]

cool. the placket seems reminiscent of the "suit of armor" leathers from stag with the removable panel. is that from 06? seems like a good find indeed.

[Faust]

Yes, from 06, IIRC. The back is also cool, the knit bottom stops at the sides on the back and the center is entirely cotton, reminiscent of the panel on biker jackets. Also has the huge back pocket where I carry a book when I don't feel like carrying a bag around and a leather band around the neck with snaps.

Mike, I bought it at Barneys.

Nothing is sexier to me than wearing a man's over-sized, rumpled button-down shirt. Luckily, Ann makes them for women, and cuts a mean version at that. This one is from her Blanche collection, a limited-edition capsule which re-creates one iconic item from each of her last 10 seasons.
