    i am 5'9 and a bit less than 140 lbs

    @sunglasses question, i have been wearing a pair of original helmut lang's that are based on the wayfarer design. i've owned many other glasses and would recommend (since finding original helmut glasses is hard) cutler and grosses and certain linda farrows,

      some shades shop off melrose, dont remember the name, had a nice pair that fit me - u could pretty much wad the sunglasses up in your hand and they would bounce back to shape - dont remember the name of the place or the company who made the glasses - might have been dita or mykita...wish i could remember.....anyway, thanks for the recommendations.

        It must've been Mykita or IC berlin. I've a pair of Mykita's which are indestructible. Sat on them. Twice.

          I have a 39" chest the last I measured it and I wear that moto in size 2. definitely get the size 1.

            thanks alot for the confirmation, just to make sure, how are you measuring your chest/ what is your weight/height. Ive heard a few of people say that the size 2 is 18" pit to pit.

                  Yes, BLCKMRKT has indeed closed, unfortunately.

                  Apart from JUS, which I find boring, NK (Nordiska Kompaniet) carries "Acne, Belstaff, C.P.Company, Carhartt, Comme des Garcons, Dover Street Market, Givenchy, Helmut Lang, Hope, Junya Watanabe, Local Firm, Marc by Marc Jacobs, Marc Jacobs, Martin Margiela, Nikolaj d'Etoiles, Oliver Spencer, Paul & friends, Pringle, Raf Simons, Rick Owens, Thom Browne, Trickers, Visvim, Y3" in a store called Paul & Friends on floor 2. Quite boring as well, unfortunately, but it's what we've got here.
                  Nathalie Schuterman carries for example Lanvin for both sexes.

                  I usually go out to bars or gigs (i.e. I don't "club"), and I highly recommend checking out Mother - a club run by Gavin Maycroft dedicated to showcasing the finest underground music from all over the world. He relocates to new venues all the time, but usually, there are almost no week-ends without a Mother event.
                  There is a really great bar called Berlin on Skånegatan 71 in Södermalm. Small as fuck though. Another one, called Landet is located at Telefonplan, LM Ericssons väg 27. Somewhat off, but really nice. Occasional great gigs, too. You can dine at both places, but I haven't done it, so I can't say whether they are good or not in that regard.
                  A spectacular bar is Gondolen at Stadsgården 6 (in an external lift called Katarinahissen). Great view and a little bit classier than the previous two suggestions.
                  For dining only, as a vegetarian I personally recommend Lao Wai at Luntmakargatan 74. Real Chinese food, as it is in China.
                  I don't know any restaurants with good "Swedish" food, since most of it is based on meat, although Nystekt strömming - the herring wagon - is located on Södermalmstorg and serves fresh herring in various ways.

                  I feel I can go on for ages about everything from architecture (my field) to which side of the escalator you should stand on. If you want more (perhaps more alternative) suggestions, just send me a PM.

                      As long as you always stand to the right in the escalators you'll have a great time!

                        • Guidi womens boots

                          Does anyone know where I could get these Guidi boots for women (back zip, reverse leather)? Since they are so hard to find, I'm thinking about ordering them custom made from Lazzari Web. Would someone here know about their pricing on the custom made Guidi boots? If so, please PM me. Thanks!!

                              Does anyone know what brands these are? They look quite interesting so I'd like to know more about them.
