    Current dead-end jeans in a really amazing fabric. Worn 2-3 times, in almost new condition and comes with rice bag and tags. These are black, my photos made them look much lighter than in real life, the photo of the inner tags shows the colour best.

    Label Under Construction Slant Seams Screen Printed Knit
     
    Size 52, fits a 48.
     
    Model: 21YMTS194
    Colour: 21/19-9
    Material: 100% Cotton - CO131 FP 
    2013SS
     
    My favourite design by Luca in terms of colour and screen printing effect. Amazing fabric, even though it's 100% cotton, the weave makes it feel more like a light cashmere blend. Sadly just a bit small for me.
     
    It's this exact knit here so you can see fit pics and exact details and measurements of the actual piece:

    Devoa Tailored Wool Blazer.
     
    Size 3 from 2011-12FW.
    Model No. - IJK-CW8 CLR. CHRCL
     
    Body: 100% Wool, Lining: 100% Cupra
    Made in Japan.
    Colour: Charcoal
     
    Really great blazer from Devoa, the tailoring is just impeccable.
    I bought this from Zekka with the plan to wear it for more formal occasions but it just doesn't get any wear.
     
    In excellent condition and comes with garment bag.
     
    Description and fit pics can be seen here:
     
    The sleeves on this iteration was much longer than other Devoa blazers as can be seen on how long they are on the model above. So I had them shortened by my tailor and had her keep the original cuff shape.
     
    The result was great and can be seen here:
     
    The sleeves now measure 66cm, about 2cm shorter than my size 3 Ramie blazer:
     
    The sleeves are just slightly longer than formal suiting, where as the Ramie is quite long and casual.
     
    Fits a slim to true 48.

    I have 178€ in credit for PNP-Firenze, don't mind keeping it around but don't really have use for it at the moment so if someone plans on buying something from PNP soon they can save a few €.

  3. I'm currently watching Shingeki no Kyojin, Blood Lad and Naruto Shippuden, I know Naruto Shippuden may not be too popular around here but I've been following it since Naruto and just kept up with it.

     

    Blood Lad is surprisingly good coz I find it really funny, I normally watch anime for action/adventure so it's quite refreshing for me.

     

    I really liked Sword Art Online, definitely one of my favourites.

    I thought  Suisei no Gargantia was interesting and promising but ended quite short and all of a sudden.

    I watched Devil Survivor 2 The Animation coz I was bored, kinda average but I liked the theme song lol.

     

    Anyone else watch X-Men the anime version? I'm a big X-Men fan so I decided to watch it. I think it's pretty good, also the series was pretty short so worth checking out if you have time.

  5. Another place worth mentioning is The Atlantic in Crown Casino for their desserts.

    The dessert menu changes a bit but there's always some amazing desserts.

     

    Marco Pierre White’s Valrhona Chocolate Tart with Prune and Armagnac Ice Cream

    This is my second favourite dessert, my biggest regret is ordering this to share lol, I/we always order different desserts for the the table to share so everyone can try different desserts. After having this I told myself I need to come back and order this for myself, but unfortunately they took it off the menu shortly after :(

    IMG_1315.jpg

     

    Peanut Butter and Jelly Sandwich.
    Raspberry jelly, valrhona chocolate, salty peanut fudge, croissant ice cream

    Raspberry Tart

  6. Bistro Vue, as mentioned above, another of my 3 favourites, great food and amazing desserts, including possibly my favourite steak dish and dessert.

    (Mamasitas is always really dark so I don't have any pics from them.)

     

    French onion soup with beer, topped with gruyère

    David Blackmore Full Blood Waygu bolar blade cooked sous-vide, truffle risotto, corn

    Even though it's a secondary cut, cooking it sous-vide makes it so tender it's probably my favourite steak dish, although I must mention I've never been to Japan  :P

    Slow cooked lamb shank

    IMG_1327.jpg

     

    Tarte Tatin, my favourite dessert, which really surprised me as I'm usually more of a fan of chocolaty, cheesecake or creamy cake type desserts. But this was just so good, delicious crispy caramelised base, the combination of apricot, vanilla and custard was just perfect. A must try for anyone in Melbourne.

  7. Ok some personal favourites in Melbourne.

     

    First up is Golden Fields, the cuisine is "a personal interpretation of chef Andrew McConnell's favourite Asian eating experiences".

    So I think it's a modern twist on Asian classics. This is one of my top 3 favourite restaurants in Melbourne, along with Mamasitas and Bistro Vue.

     

    Duckfish, salmon roe, scud chilli, ginger & lime

    537320_10151434525827053_845934891_n.jpg

  9. I really love Quest Protein bars.

    http://www.questproteinbar.com/

     

    I only place an order once every few months if they release a new flavour or something because their shipping prices are really expensive.

     

    But I recently just found and Australian stockist.

    http://lowcarbcentral.com.au/low-carb-shop/low-carb-protein-bars.html

     

    Seriously recommend banana nut muffin, chocolate peanut butter, cinnamon roll, white chocolate raspberry, choc chip cookie dough and apple pie.
