Sadly, it doesn't get cold enough here for gloves, BUT those are pretty enough that I could be tempted to buy a pair and stick my arms in the freezer .
Wow, the Marni jacket sounds fab! I just realized I have 3 jackets (one Marni actually) and 2 coats with 3/4 sleeves! Maybe I need two pairs of gloves!
Kroquet, a trip to Europe this Winter may offer the perfect opportunity to justify a pair
the jacket is pretty reasonably priced too. i think i'll take it with me to london at the end of september/early october.
off topic, but do people notice that designers have dropped their prices? for example, prada cotton shirts were $800-1000 last season and are $500-600 this season. no such price drop for bags, unfortunately.
ebruo: are you following The Ashes? i'm listening online right now.
Hi Apey_grapey, I'm afraid I don't follow cricket, but the boys in the office are obsessed. I am a tennis fanatic and an avid Nadal supporter. Can't wait for next week's ATP tournament in Montreal, when Rafa is due back on the courts!
I think the main reason for lower prices for you guys across the pond is the stronger Dollar this year.
We in Britain continue to suffer- last year's Capri holiday would have been 35% more expensive this year. Blow-up plastic pool in the garden it is then
this summer has been fun when it comes to sports watching: french open, wimbledon, tour de france, and the ashes. maybe with nadal having the summer off recuperating, he'll be able to go deeper at the us open. i've seen him play twice. i saw his match against david ferrer in 2007. that was a brutal sad loss. nadal's knees were so bad, he couldn't push off on his serve, but he played on. the match didn't finish until 1am.
