well, i got my first pair and i am pretty satisfied. fits tight, but even if i managed to close all buttons including the clasp i think i couldn't have gone a size under (i'm a 29 in apc ns, got a 30 in 19cms).

just one thing : they're a little bit longer than expected, so should i get them shortened? if yes, how and by who?

I took my latest pair to a tailor, he shortened them and narrowed the leg to suit my relatively skinny calfs. Having owned a pair prior to that I just didn't want to deal with all the excess fabric so I had them shortened to 34 inches as they come standard in 36.

From my experience the vast majority of men's leather shoes look their best after a few weeks use, they have got to be broken in just like a car or a pair of speakers.

Any good tips on a fresh 50-100 dollar hotel located no further than a 30min walk to places like central park, empire state building of 5th avenue?? BTW how do tourists get around in NY, using bus, underground or cab??

Achieving something you never thought you would.

there are always horror stories, but keep it in perspective and realize everybody has to start somewhere.

Well said, and unfortunately the myth is very true. I have a buddy who interned at a magazine with a degree in journalism from one of the best institutions in the world. Sadly for her part she ended up with manual labour taking care of very small tasks despite the fact that she was willing to do more and take more responsibility. People people poor attitude is something else she had to put up with every day.

The road to glamour is long and only those really dedicated and passionate about what they do will make it.

Those are some sexy high top that looks top quality unlike the Lanvin copy-cats seen in stores like Zara.

As I haven't had time to follow X factor properly, I tuned in on their website to catch up. Take by complete surprised the episodes on web are no different than watching them on freeview as they contain 4 bloody commercial breaks with no possibility of skipping them.

^^

I second that. Does anyone know where I can get one and for how much??

I depise it. Nothing abuses a pair of jeans like putting a cheeseburger sized wallet in the right back pocket. It looks very bulky too. I hardly put anything in my jeans pocket as I got a bag that stores my camera, wallet, Zune and other items.

I have the possibility of getting hold of tickets for the Dior show but I can't attend since I'll be preparing for my final exams:(

I don't see the reason to wear women's fragrances when there are tons of sweet smelling unisex fragrances out there. Gucci Envy Me, is my favourite women's fragrance and the way it smells I can't see how a heterosexual man could possibly wear it.

I'll be watching Love Actually tonight.

That's one very transparent dress, but her face and makeup gets a thumb up from me.

My new pair I posted a while ago. Got them slightly altered by my retailer as I couldn't stand the excessive length, they are 34 inches long. As I have very skinny calves I managed to get the calves on the jeans narrowed a bit though I didn't want to do it excessively since I'm not the type to wear super skinny jeans.All I want is a decent degree of slimness. My waist is really 30 but my thighs are like python snakes and are a little buff as I have an athletic background.

What are whore H&M is. Another designer already? The Brits will obviously love this although the designer is so bloody random most people will have to google and wiki the dude to get an idea what he's about. He's got loverly summery designs although Missoni would have been a more exciting choice.

What a way to dig up an old thread. Either way I don't wear fakes for the sole reason that the quality is horrendous and execution in most cases is terrible compared with the real deal. Besides that wearing fake stuff makes me feel cheap and bad.

fuck - i'm going to be in london for the month of january. am i gonna freeze my ass off?!?

seriously. i don't deal all that well with cold... (from hawaii and working in HK now.)

It depends. Overall the winters in London are very mild. Right now we are unlucky to be caught up in mad cold temperature but by mid January temperatures increase gradually ushering us into spring. You could walk without a jacket during the second half of January this year. It shouldn't be cold to the point where you cannot spend time outdoors.

anyone check that new kanye and luda? shits got leaked as usual

Got Kanye's album this morning. If you like Love locked down then you'll be blown away from by the Album. It sounds like no hiphop or R&B album on the shelves. Kanye has really produced something unique here, this album is an instant classic. Sales are going to be mad as the album will also attract those who generally don't listen to rap. I love the drums playing in every single song.

Not my favorite Jean, Don't like the material that much...but it is what it is.

Dear Chris, Please sell me your Ann D. shoes.

I've never seen those before. How much are they? What's wrong with the material, isn't it the same as the ordinary Dior denim?

quick update. Just added the new Unisex Skinny Standard to our line.

We’ve been secretly making this thinner version of our classic Standard belt for a few months now, and have finally added it as an official release to our line. Measuring 1†in width, it’s a great alternative for those who have pants with smaller belt loops.

Those are some very nice belts that should look terrific with any pair of jeans plus a white shirt tucked in. Well designed but yet simple.

I agree this season is much better than the second half of the previous season which was lukewarm.
