Babyshamble is DUDE, baby!
Yeah...I was confused for a second too until I read his intro. XS, usually wears womens clothes because they're easier to find. Size 43 shoes.
I hope he's a guy.

i got per se reservations for lunch like the day before. now, with the economy being so shit, i hear you can get tables at these exclusive restaurants pretty easily.

I only ate there once (business dinner) and I think they booked 2 weeks in advance. I know one of my friends ate there recently and he got a table for about a week after he called. Shit is really down in ny now so I wouldn't be surprised if you got it fairly easily.

Oh, cool. Thanks!

Very gingerly, I'd think.
To each their own though I'd love to see a fit pic of it in action.
I went to school with a guy who worse skirts and makeup. Somehow, after seeing it a few times it didn't even strike me as weird.

Saw Marc Jacobs this week wearing a skirt. It looked kind of good actually. White shirt, black skirt, almost kilt-like. With black boots and a trench, seemed Ok.

That's Marc's uniform these days. Thought he was trying to procure an eccentricity, like Karl Lagerfeld, but MJ seems to be digging the skirt. I don't blame him either. Can't say I would mind some breeze hitting my legs during the summer.

On that note, the other day I saw a heavily bearded man walking down the street in a white tee shirt and an ankle length tie-dye skirt - one a hippie would wear - with some dirty trainers, and for some reason, it didn't strike me as odd at all. In fact, I found it completely natural on that man. My (lack of) reaction puzzled me, and still does. Maybe it is the way you carry yourself.

ROFL..

I'll take it as a compliment that half the page is discussing my gender. I am a GUY yes :) I wear a lot of women's clothes because they fit me better but also, it's cheaper than trying to find rare 42/44 pieces which appear on Yahoo JP on the 100,000+ side :)

The women's clothes I wear are usually more subtle and are not feminine at all, but this Junya coat is more on the extreme side compared to the rest of my items in my wardrobe, but it was so nice I had to take a shot at it :)

I mean, look at the Rick leather I bought, yeah it women's but you can't really tell the difference when I'm wearing it. WAYW pic soon...ish :)

Just wear any tee or tank, either matching tone or white. The jacket is so outstanding, I feel like the simplest thing underneath will work.

Yeah my thoughts too. Clean and simple.

i actually find a lot of todd lynns stuff is very unisex, fits closer to the body - higher armholes. Im alll for it.

Owens NYC spring/summer sale?

I am planning on being in NYC at the end of the month and was thinking about picking up some owens leather. When do his spring/summer sales typically start and what is the typical % off. I guess I should also try Barneys and the like...

[Test]

I'm under the impression the RO store never puts leather on sale.

[Vikeid]

when i was in palais royal they said that the leathers never go on sale. dunno if he meant that they always sell out or that they dont want to mark them down. dont know if the same applies i ny, but maybe.

i have a similiar question, when is the best time to go to paris if i want to be there when the sale start? mostly l'eclaireur and ro store im interested in i guess.. ?

[Babyshamble]

eluxury just had a major sale on leathers, like $1000 reductions, one was even $1200. Might be available in your size, but none in S or XS :(

[JetLag]

Usually the sales in Paris starts on the last week of June.
