lowered price to $295USD

Beauty & the beast: part when beast is dying, with belle holding beast on her arms and the last petal of the magical flower drops. Awwww.........

Meet joe black: when pitt and hopkins walk away from the final party to the end of the garden. Very touching scene. And also when Forlani looks at Pitt in the eyes during the end.

Serendipity: cant remember which scenes, but i remembered it as a pretty touching movie.

5. ''Strip" bleu clair waxed jeans. The holy grail of all dior homme jeans. Only released in limited quantity for the strip period and discontinued ever since! If you guys wanna invest your money, this is it:D!!!

on the calf area of the back jeans, under the honeycombs, theres two "U" like distressing, this extra details is only for the limited bleu clair from strip!

wax coating is even found inside the jeans!!!

although some of you who has been into the dior brand for a longer time would probably know this, that the wax coating first released during luster was very thick and rich. Current ones are thin and nothing compared to the luster and strip period! This is why the dior purists are always talking bout the good old days of luster and strip!

These wax bleu clair are the rare color thats has been discontinued for good. The black and the dark blue ones are still re produced ever year (although of lower details!).

Tagged a size 29, in new condition, probably worn once or twice. Asking $1100USD. A bargain it is!

4. Distressed claw mark jeans. From ss05 collection. These are the basic items from dior homme, so its reproduced every year and do not go on sale. But one thing i do notice is the quality of the fadeness and the details that are lacking, from the currently released ones. Please look at the pictures and you will know what I mean:)

notice the 'claw' mark is not as straight as the currently released ones, shows that this is hand applied!

Tagged a 29. Made in Japan.Hem is 19cm. Condition, like new. Probably worn once or twice. Asking $400USD. A steal:)

3. votc suede boots, size 42.5eu. Will fit those who wear size 10 to 10.5us size nikes. Almost all of the models wear this for the votc runway. A classic boots that will be perfect for winter!

Condition is new. Asking $400USD. Again, if you know bout dior homme, no boots is priced around what Im asking for. Boots usually go for around $800 to 900! Grab this bargain:)

2. Solitaire corsage. Hedi's first collection for dior. Hand made delicately in France, by the famous Lesage (who do coutures for Chanel). With a leather strap thats dangling down, here the runway pic to have a better idea how its supposed to be worn:

Condition is new. Asking only $380USD, for such a rare item.

Okay, gonna head up to HK for this holiday, need to sell some stuffs that I barely wore, to fund for some new stuffs when Im there. So if you see anything you like PM me, its for a good cause, gentlemen!

1. dior homme votc red & black t shirt in size S. Even though Hedi no longer work at dior, hes still found wearing this classic t shirt he designed back during 2004 fall/winter. Heres a couple of pics of Hedi wearing it at a concert and his young american exhibition.

infamous 'bee' logo discreetly placed on the black border, a very nice touch!

leather epaulets, a nice detail that is no longer found in current dior tees.

Condition is like new. Asking $250USD. First come first serve basis:)

Speaking of proxies, is there anyone out there that could help me sell some stuffs on Y! JP or ebay? someone with a good feedback reviews, of course. PM me if anyone can help out:)

Still available!

who the fuck votes to abstain.

free-jay.

Going to HK next week, gonna check out the Lanvin (which would be on sale there). Let me know if you guys need anything you need me to pick up. But please make sure you guys already know the ref number, sizing that you need etc. As I'm going for a holiday and just doing this for favors for you Lavin lovin freaks. PM me with your wish list and I'll let you know whether I can find it or not.

Some of you actually pay for these samples?:eek:

They gave me like a bunch of samples (2ml) of The different Company for free, and I cant remember the other ones they gave me.

ME!

take5 would be way better than any store in the united states.. way cheaper after they reduced their prices last october theyre vey competitive to rakuten prices now.. theyre like 15$ more from a rakuten store when you get from them using a discount card good luck!

They ought to have a similar price, seeing that they cut their middleman fee and went straight to the source now(seeing from pics you posted).

Do you have their address, I only remembered their old address. How do you actually get a discount card? and what do they stock btw?

If I could only recommend one to anyone, anytime...it would be the greatest perfume every made...Mitsouko by Guerlain. Its perfect for any man or woman, its not too expensive, available everywhere, and although created in 1919, never dates.

Perfume is like music...if you love it the first time you smell it, chances are you'll overdose on it and get sick of it. Something that strikes you as interesting at first, but slowly moves to the top of your list will last much longer. Mitsouko is like that...strange, interesting, and possibly off-putting at first, but always grows on you.

gimmegimme, i think you are offically the powerhorse of this fragrance thread with your knowledge:D

Im quite interested in this mitsouko you recommend., however on the link you provided it says its for women? is this something unisex like ck one?

Where can I find these in HK to try the samples before pulling the trigger?

are you going to visit SE?

No, I'd probably order them online. I might visit take5 in HK this holiday though:)

what size of skull 5010 black should I get if I wear 28 mij dior and 27apc ns? and whats the best method of soaking these?

I just tried "The Different Company" and I must say its like nothing Ive ever smelled before! My favorite are the bergamote and rose poivree. But the price point is way above the standard major brands like Chanel or Dior.

the xx-005 is made by pure blue japan, hence pbj. they have some of the nicest, slubbiest denim ive ever encountered, especially at such a low price point. from the jeans youve listed, i could tell ypou wanted something slim. id totally avoid april 77 as well, since almost all their jeans have a % of elastane in them. a77s are probably the only jeans on your list that should be labled second class. the rest are very nice. edmond is just stupid and fat, and doesnt know what to do with his money.

anyways, flatheads are also nice. they are known for theyre legendary fades that form rather quickly due to the fact that they are rope-dyed (the core of the warp is left undyed by indigo). ironhearts are made to be heavy, and indestructible, but reportedly dont fade as nicely. i dont know how the sugarcanes are since they are rather new, but sugarcane is known for their attention to detail.

pbjs and sammys arent carried at self edge, but they do have them at BiG.

just go to self edge and ask kiya to help you. hes very knowledgable, and will point you in the right direction.

Thanks, Red. Yes, I do know that april77 are nothing compared to these other ones.

Oh, I want to get a slim, black raw jeans that will have nice fade. What do you suggest?

I wouldnt go as far as saying hes stupid and fat, I guess hes just trying to say what hes into thats all. While you on the other hand, are listening to what Im looking for and attend to my need. +rep for that:)

those are fake

you could probably achieve that look by sizing up one

and those would be the grey jeans... but fake

I like the styling, even though its all fake. Is that a fake Hare hi top that Hare fake from Raf Simons?

those are fake

you could probably achieve that look by sizing up one

and those would be the grey jeans... but fake

Are these the overdrives though? why need to size up, wont they stretch?

I was hoping that I could get some subtle design ones too, rear pocket wise. Nothing with the peach that edmond posted, or one that scream "Im a bad ass cowboy!" or "im a japanese wanna be". Hope this make sense:p

I want some slim cutting jeans but not something thats spandex tight. I'm kinda bored with dior jeans and apc, thats why I thought I should try these other brands that are stocked by Kiya (with the exception of the april77).

what brand is pbj-xx005s? and I hope someone could explain to me whether I need to soak them (and how to soak them) or not, since Im still a newbie with this soaking thing.

I also hope that it'd be black raws, since its a fresh look. I use to wear lots of indigo ones, but I still got the apc one and a levis one. So I'm hoping to get a black raw. But if you got any reccommendation for any raw indigo ones, I can always get another pair:)
