I find the CON viscose gain about an inch in length after wearing them for about an hour.

i'm sure this has been covered recently, but who does the best value drop crotch leggings or sweats around here? Something on the slim side?

Also, I snaked 2 tickets to RAFW courtesy of Oyster Mag....

re: CON white viscose tee - might be a defective piece D? where did you buy it from? can you return it? doesn't sound right. I also find CON's sizing can sometimes be inconsistent. One of the tees that i own is significantly shorter/tighter than the others (they're all size S).

Too true mel. i noticed that the older season XS tee's were slightly longer and wayy better fitting than the new ones which looked wackly oversized on me.

are those tickets for all the shows?

yeah con's sizing is all over the place. have mediums that fit like smalls, and smalls that fit like mediums.

whack.

[TTT]

I have a 'medium' minus the orb tee which fits like an x-large. I know its meant to be oversized but it sits way off the shoulders.

need, winter, shit.

cannot, afford.

need, bargains.

thing that's weird is that I have 2 tees and 2 singlets from the same season that fit differently. eh, as T said they'll stretch anyway.

Ivan if you want something that's reasonably warm then the CM ones are your best bet. bassike, nathan smith, and assin's in house label have drop crotch leggings this season but they're super thin.

Anyone know where to get CdG frangrence in Melbourne?

[melvin7]

have you tried myer T?

they've started stocking them late last year (at least in sydney).. thought it was a weird move:confused: they have the whole collection too - man 2, unisex 2, cdg play, etc

Anyone know where to get CdG frangrence in Melbourne?

[jcotteri]

Not sure if they do yet.. Assin though should by now?

[Tyro1]

haven't seen it in chiodo or assin, though they have the 6 scents. Haven't looked in myer though, will take a look. Cheers.

[DJI]

I don't think Assin does, trying asking at Chiodo as they may be able to order it in for you.

[Ivans On High]

I need to sell me shit to justify the CM sweats and some drkshdw jeans, so one day only Aussie buyer discount on my geller stuff. PM if you're interested.

[fenrost]

sorry for this random question but since this is a melbourne thread.....

does anyone know where to buy carnivorous plants around the city?

not that i have bugs in the house but... just some fascination of it. lol.

[DJI]

lol, bunnings maybe? any nursery should have them dude...

[choice_genes]

re comme scents in melbourne, try mecca cosmetica too. they have a store right behind chiodo in fact...

[jcotteri]

assin in Sydney has them.. sorry

[DJI]

just get them to send some down T, they usually only take a day to get stock from the sydney store.

[Tyro1]

I wouldnt mind being able to smell some of the fragrances again. I'm tempted to get the monocle hinoki, which is relatively cheap at 55 pounds. I think CdG 2 Man would be about $150-200 here?

[Deiv]

Yes $150 according to Assin's online store.

[Tyro1]

Mecca cosmetica (and Mecca in myer) stocks CdG. They have 2, 2 man, 888, 53, 71, white, 3 and two of the luxe ones. Just had a look, might have to grab some 2 man soon.

[Ivans On High]

50_Lions, you look like my bro.

[wept]

at least you didnt say 50 lions looks like your mum :eek::eek::eek:

[DJI]

would +rep if I could 50, you make that CM bomber look good (fits like a leather potato sack on me haha).

a quick soak and drip dry of those white CON basics stretched them over 2", they no longer look like drapey uniqlo tees .

[melvin7]

hey 50 are those CM lizzy jeans? might be the pic but the colour on yours look a bit faded..

I am yet to pick one up. will i need to size down?

nice waywt though. would also +rep if i could!

[DJI]

mel you need to size down 1 or 2 for CM lizzy jeans.

[oceanv1ew]

^ Yeah I got my CM Lizzy from Pitbull, the smallest they had was in 30 ... Definitely need to size down.

[50_lions]

Thanks guys, yeah they are CM lizzy but like, unwashed haha. Have had them for about 7months and haven't washed them. That being said I will wash today as it's getting a bit gross now, i'm not sure i it will go back to black or what.. will see what happends.

As for sizing, they are 32, and when I tried them on I could hardly move. Now the waiste is really loose but the legs are still super tight. I was thinkin of getting a 34 tailored back to a 32 waiste as I can sometimes feel my blood pumping around my knee area :-s

[melvin7]

what size do you wear in CON jeans oceanview?

if the JR jeans are a lil too tight for me D, what would u recommend me? 29?

might do a phone order soon.
