Your recent purchases

[bestial]

Just got a black Rick womans-tank from luisaviaroma, nice raceback in viscose

Very, very much too small for me and my GF don't want it, so if anyone wants to buy their short, thin GF a nice christmas present, or if you yourself is tiniwini, you can have it för €100 +shipping. Sz 38 (yeah, ordered a bigger size, but they where out so just wanted to try), else I'll send it back to them.

Chard Sharp - A dvd on stacking decks, false shuffles, trick deals and other fun things to do to win at any card game (esp the ones where money is involved....) Pretty soon I'll be able to go Christmas shopping for all my friends and family!!! ::insert muhahahaha::

[maldoror]

ouu ouuu! How is it? What are the quality of the illustrations like and the general size of it? Sorry to be so inquisitive it's just this was the first bellmer book I could find that had photographs that were larger than a business card and now I've had a taste for bellmer and I want more more more...

honestly I'm kind of conflicted about the book. it's a nice object (nice edition, with, e.g., the endpapers done in black velvet) and the works on show are not things I've seen elsewhere, but the quality of reproduction is not the best and, honestly, for the most part neither are the drawings. the size of the reproductions is fine, but the photography is not the sharpest and colors don't seem correct, the latter of which is not a significant issue because they're drawings, but it still bothers me a bit. this is all to say: it was a great gift, but I wouldn't have bought it on my own.

my guess is that, unless you're a bellmer completist, the book you have probably renders this one null.

Sadly... I have an extremely addictive personality that causes me to be an everything completest... I have 23 24 BLOODY discs of 'The Cure' for example. But I'm working on it. I think I can thank Gary Numan for that. When I amassed 3.45GB's of pure Gary Numan I realized I had/have a problem.

But thank you so much for your thorough review! I'll try to take your advice and be happy with the one I have for now! Actually no... I need one more Bellmer book just for the SZ Bible thread; One of the marquis de sade stories as illustrated by Bellmer. Now that would be a fun entry! haha

Got these muthas in the mail today, very nice

[Sophi Marie]

Hmmm I haven't purchased any thing new this days. I purchased a new Levis skinny jeans last month.

[snafu]

they are nice and cool how you can fold them down compared to how stiff the originals are
browns have my size bu i think im holding out to get super cheap if i get lucky

[Gunjah]

yeah, got them myself, they are really nice, can be worn like originals or slouchy or anything, really great boots !

[Arcane]

Haven't played around with them a lot yet but I figure they're very versatile. Them being suede is also very nice and adds a great effect to the slouchieness (color wise...)

I'm having a boring time so I snapped a pic with them worn for those interested.

One of the marquis de sade stories as illustrated by Bellmer

during college I held down a job in book preservation services at the library, which gave me special access privileges to the rare books collection. among my various abuses of these privileges was tracking down an original illustrated edition of justine (which I had previously seen behind glass at moma's desire unbound show).

I was also able to spend a good deal time with an early, serialized printing of une semaine de bonte.

good times that I look forward to revisiting should I ever become rich, or else take an unexpected career detour into library sciences.

Just had a look at the ones on Brown, and they look a bit different, more like the original stiffer ones. Are u sure they're the same?

Sounds like an amazing experience!

I LOVE un semaine de bonte! Used and abused it many times for different purposes.

Anyone recommend something similar? Not to derail the thread...

If familirar with Une Semaine de Bonté, one should know the rest ;)
