dude I wouldn't stress about it. melb uni has to run extra classes or change the venues of the existing classes to accommodate all of the students they have enrolled, it's just surprising that their administration is so shit

[Tyro1]

holy shit, yesterday total writet off... missed work, spent all day in bed.

[DJI]

damn T, sorry to hear that man. you any better today?

[Tyro1]

yeah on the mend, actually out of bed...

[034936]

hey great pickups DJI. hows the fit on them? they look extremely slim in the body.

[DJI]

thanks man. they fit very long and slim, nice fabric too. only thing I don't really like about them is the neckline is quite wide, however I was only planning on wearing them layered under other tees anyway.

[034936]

how much did they set you back, if you dont mind me asking. from japan yeah?

[DJI]

yeah they're from Japan, rrp was just under 6K yen each.

Guys, where can I get black military boots, slim type, not those chunky shit. They don't look good on me as well as erm, desert boots, like Clarks.

Desert boots like these: http://www.onlineshoes.com/productpage.asp?gen=m&pcid=1460

[DJI]

no idea dude, your best bet would probably be finding something online. imo desert boots are some ugly shit...

[Pandemonium]

checked out claude maus today, they just got some new basics in:

- double layer cotton/cashmere s/s tees in black, grey marle and white for $210

- double layer cotton/cashmere l/s tees in black and chocolate for $255

I'll probably pic up the s/s in white and black, and the l/s in black but want to try them on when I'm in casual jawns first.

[Tyro1]

D, is the body length on the s/s the same as the l/s?

[034936]

are the double layer long sleeves connected at the hems like RO long sleeves (twisted/sewn assymetrically?) or are they more like the con double layers.

[DJI]

they look to be the same length as the new l/s tees, they're a very similar cut to last seasons tees but they have a slightly higher neckline. they're still a u-neck but not quite as deep, pretty much perfect imo.

[DJI]

are the double layer long sleeves connected at the hems like RO long sleeves (twisted/sewn assymetrically?) or are they more like the con double layers.

they're separate with a back seam (can't remember if the new ones had a front seam).

[Tyro1]

Yeah, they only connect at the neck and armpits.

Damn D this is really tempting, but I just have to hold out for sale price or at least a few paycheques. But love the l/s I have so I must grab some at some stage.

[DJI]

I'll probably pick them up in the next week or so, the good pieces never make it to sale in small. really happy with the changes to the design though, perhaps my feedback to the SAs got passed onto Rob haha.

[melvin7]

I'm gonna give them a call tomorrow and order some stuff ;D

Need to get a pair of jeans for my sis' bday. Looking to get the girl's equivalent to the men's black lizzy jeans. Just unsure of the size though.. is size 27 = 8? does anyone know by any chance?

and if i normally wear CON S, and M in claude maus printed tees, what size should i get in the double layer s/s? prolly order some while im at it.

[Tyro1]

I'd probably get the same size as you do in con basics

[DJI]

I'm a size XS in CON and an S in claude maus (it's the smallest size they make haha). the claude pieces run a fair bit slimmer than CON though so I'd recommend an M melvin.

[Tyro1]

I tried on a large and xl in the l/s cotton cashmere and got a large. (I wear large in con). I feel like if I had got a x large in claude cotton cashmere it would feel to loose after an hour of wear. .

[DJI]

I guess they are rather stretchy, might be better off sizing down then.

[Tyro1]

Yeah I guess it depends. There wasn't a massive difference between the sizes I tried on. New season may be different also.

[DJI]

they did feel slimmer to me than last seasons, I didn't need to twist it that much to make it reasonably fitted in the body.

[melvin7]

kk cheers for the help guys. would rep if i could!

[melvin7]

called and ordered.

got the double layer s/s in size S (spoke to amara from the store and she also recommended me to size down)

my sis' jeans, and also did an impulse buy on the achilles midtop grey..

FUCK.

[aloysius]

haha

how much did you pay for the mid tops?

[melvin7]

the mid top was $340 inc shipping.

i dont have any decent light colour shoes so i thought i'd cop.

kinda regretting it now that they've taken the money out of my account lol
