la femme nikita?

i'm going to segue way here, from sart event at Andrew McConnell’s recently opened Cutler and Co, to dining in Melbourne (sidetracking from our love of high end Jap and Euro goods)...

So, does anyone eat out much? I'm trying to more and more. Most recent meals that have been good have been:

Von Haus (relaxed casual (W/D)ining.

Rumi (amazing middle eastern food, up the road from me)

Mo Vida Next Door (the more casual version of the impossible to book Mo Vida)

I really want to check out:

Helenic Republic (another one in my neck of the woods, apparently really good greek food and a great dining experience)

Cumulus Inc another AMac restaurant on Flinders Way

Will return soon to:

Cookie always great thai style seafood and other favourites (like the fried chicken)

Yu-u one of the better Japanese casual dining restaurants in Melbourne

Anyone have any good reviews / tips / favourites?

My last trip to Melbourne in November was a bit of a culinary excursion, some of the places I went to (in 4 days):

Movida Next Door

Cumulus Inc

The Press Club

The European

Gills Diner

Shoya

My favourite was Movida, the eggplant chips and ox tongue were the standout dishes. The Press Club does a great 4 course lunch on the weekends, the desserts can be boxed for take away if you get too full (like we were). I also wanted to try Seamstress and Flower Drum but missed out.

Where abouts online?

I've got a pair of YMC's, you can find them online for about 250AUD

would anyone be able to recommend a place where i could get some nice dress shoes?

what is your criteria? something with a slim profile? how much are you willing to spend?

do you guys think it looks alright with a white button up shirt? gots a formal occasion sat night. http://img91.imageshack.us/img91/8394/img8254medium.jpg

Looks ok for going out but I wouldn't wear it for a formal occasion. Need something more classic.

^ that jacket is pretty dope but I'm not a fan of the shoulder zip

I think it fits pretty true to size, I'm glad I ordered the S and not XS

I couldn't decide whether to order the varsity jacket in XS or S...I ended up ordering it in S, let's hope it fits.

I dunno how the prices at the webstore are so expensive, the pricing at Incu is pretty reasonable...eg $149 for a crewneck sweatshirt

I read in the sun herald that acne will be opening their flagship store in paddington during May. I think that the brand makes some nice basics so I'd be interested to visit the store once it opens.

Hows everyones easter break going?

stayed at home mainly...trying to save some money so didn't go away anywhere. speaking of which has anyone gotten their stimulus payment yet??? i'm still waiting on mine...

shit's expensive 320 euros

Does your job require you to wear a suit? What is your budget?

Herringbone is your best option, go to their store in Circular Quay as the QVB store is tiny and won't have the entire range. Otherwise I would suggest Paul Smith suits which are stocked in Incu and David Jones.

Up for sale are Dior Homme white hi top canvas sneakers. These have been worn but are in excellent condition with plenty of life in them left (I'd rate them 8/10 but check my pics). I wear US8.5 in chucks for reference. No box but comes with dust bag. These are from S/S 2007 when Hedi Slimane was still designing. Asking price for 160USD shipped worldwide.

Asking price is SOLD. Practically brand new, only worn once to try on around the house. I still have the tags somewhere in my room. Paypal accepted

Measurements for size small:

Pit to pit: 18.5 inches

shoulder to shoulder: 17 inches

sleeve from the shoulder seam to the wrists: about 25 1/2 inches long.

length: 25 inches

I will post my own pics later tonight. Borrowed pic from an old superfuture sale thread:

usually a bit cooler ~20 celsius. what brings you to sydney?

new summer stuff on website

for those wondering about the varsity / bomber jacket - price is 220 euros (and almost sold out). Much more expensive than I thought it would be, I was expecting around the 170-180 euro mark. Anyone handled it in person?

is the apc varsity in stores yet?
