Wow what a big step! Hope everything is going well for you out there.



I hadn't bought anything... until today. I saw this sweater when it first came out, decided I wasn't sure how it looked over your bum, so passed. Then I saw the sleeveless one modelled and it looked different and better over the bum, it was scrunched up a bit so made it nicer. I also realised that it is reversible. So I went back to NAP to buy it and of course it was sold out... so I have been stalking every site that sells RO trying to find it, checking NAP for any returns, and nothing. Then today I had a look at it again on ShopStyle and it showed my size available so I grabbed it and got the last one. They must have got more in. I hope I like it as much as I think I will...

There is also a DRKSHDW cotton jacket I am obsessed with, the only website that has it is Antonioni and they don't have my size :( If anyone sees this anywhere in an XS please let me know!!

Hey deb -- post some modeling pics of the sweater? So hard to see on the monitor -- it looks like it has some nice texture.

DC -- I did sneak over to the MyHabit sale and put things in my cart, looked at them, then went and looked at juniper bushes and bear grass and ... out that was that. Being good for now. Then again -- if Yoox had the drapey silk dress with dots in my size instead of a 6, I'd be toast. They have 15% off til March 31st everyone!

Munda, thank you. We are very close to having all the wrinkles ironed out -- it feels like a dream, frankly. Sometimes I don't know what the heck I'm doing but it just feels so right

Is anyone buying any of the shimmery pieces from the spring show? I haven't actually seen them in the flesh, yet ....

I'm late now, but was this the US site? I don't remember seeing much RO on the UK site recently.

Both sites. They mostly had FW2012 stuff, lots of capes and the like. They were all items that have been on the site for ages, but didn't sell so if you didn't like them before the sale you didn't miss out.

I've been planning to get RO biker jacket for quite a long time and now, with extra 15% off, I just couldn't resist. I hope it will fit, so excited :yahoo:I am very curious how this metallic leather looks IRL, anyone owns it?

So, I've been toying with getting a vest/gillet and think that a metallic leather would be a nice addition to the wardrobe. I wear mostly neutral colors (browns/greys/blacks) and think a pop of subtle bling will be a good addition versus a flat color. So, what do you think of platinum, grey or bronze?
Would love your opinion(s).

Just for reference, my leather RO's: classic biker in Resin, Sailbiker in Dark Dust, Green waxed cotton with blistered sleeves (have no idea of the name) and a winged back vest in black.

Well it came, and it doesn't fit :( It's an XS and is actually too big. The sizes are so weird sometimes. It was sort of ok around the chest but then baggy around my waist. The laddering effect was quite cool, though I probably would have been worried that I would get it caught on things. I didn't take a pic as it looked kind of silly on. haha

Oh well at least that £350 goes back in my wallet!!!

Welcome and congrats on the jacket! I like that one, it's metallic but not too in your face, a nice colour. I haven't seen that particular one in person I don't think. Let us know what you think when you get it!

Oh I see, I usually just look at the Just In stuff, so if it wasn't new I guess that's why I missed it.

I like the one clarkda posted and also
think a metallic grey would be good in your wardrobe. The platinum might be too blingy?

I've been thinking of a vest myself, this is going to sound dumb but I didn't really think of them as being worn zipped all the way up with the collar all scrunched around your neck, I saw a photo of that recently with a black blistered and thought it looked great. I didn't realise they would sit like that. Though I am still not sure what I would wear it over, it always looks good with something sleeveless underneath but can you wear them over sleeves? I guess long sleeved things would look ok but short sleeves? What do you guys think? For those of you that have them how do you wear them?

I dont wear my vest often, but i usually go very neutral with it, black grey or white, i never wear it zipped as its tight over my pecs. Its just a cool layering piece.

Just a random question but what other brands do you guys love? Personally i love similar brands like ann demuelemeester, julius, damir doma etc but i also go completely different like i also love missoni, chanel (when i can find mens pieces), gucci and valentino.
