i haven't gotten mine yet. mine's in transit in new york along with my guidi bag. i'll hopefully get it tomorrow or saturday. i hope the large works out for you.

regarding purchases, with the help of my dad, i just put down a deposit for a condo in chelsea. won't be finished until next year at some point, but it's exciting nonetheless!

Whoa! Congrats! Are you in NYC already? Whereabouts in Chelsea (Chelsea today has become a sloppy ink stain spilling well over 23rd st in the north)

Purchased two photography books:

• http://www.amazon.com/Street-Nylon-B...7279040&sr=1-2

I know Nylon can feel a little bit too hipsterish but there are some goodlooks in there.

Ok, so I will give the shearling another try, thanks ddohnggo. It better fit, dammit.

Did anyone else get theirs yet?

I got mine too, ordered a size L in black, fit is proportional to Winston's (i.e. 21.5" pit to pit for large). Maybe the greys were cut smaller?

Here's my haul for the past month or so

RO shearling

RO wide collared cotton/leather jacket

Lanvin bicolor cashmere/silk sweater (even at 75% off I felt guilty)

Also:

Nicolo Ceschi Berrini cotton linen jean-cut trousers

RO thin creased cotton jean-cut trousers

RO milk longsleeve tee

drex, that v is amazing

I'm assuming reg price around 1.4? Any morein52?

Re: Your recent purchases



is that RO wide collared jacket from the current f/w season? it looks very nice.

barneys had the lanvin vneck on sale, but it was a bit too snug for me. wish it fit. but at 75% it's still so fucking expensive!

Reg price was $1140 at Barneys Boston, it was pretty much the last one they had. They had some nice jackets left though, like the tux jacket that Fuuma picked up and the military jacket.

Re: Your recent purchases

i think i tried on that exact same sweater! i didn't like how it fell on me, which is the reason why i didn't get it. hopefully it fits you!

Thanks, it's from fall 2006 (I'm a cheapskate, don't think I ever paid retail on anything really...). Yeah, the v-neck was a tough decision, at 75% off it's still as expensive as reg. price in other labels, haha.

Re: Your recent purchases

I got a Lanvin pearl necklace for Mrs. Faust. It was supposed to be her Birthday present, but I couldn't resist and gave it to her already [:$][G]

Actually, Chelsea extends to just below 34th Street and always has since I moved here over 15 years ago. It's just that people popularly refer to the area from 14th to 23rd as Chelsea, but above 23rd is Upper Chelsea, until they give it a new monicker.
