How the heck are you? How's life in AZ? Please do TELL……

HELLO - am such a ditz.....meant NM......... LOL!

Very funny -- my friends do that all the time. With AZ in the news for all manner of silliness I just give them funny looks like, really, and you think I'd buy a house there?

We spent 1/2 of January out there, split between our house and a farm in Taos. Bought my first ever pair of cowboy boots and come home to Tom Ford spewing them all over Fashion Week and touting his Santa Fe heritage.

I am ... not shopping much! But don't think I'm not trolling about.

To whit -- a few nice pieces on MyHabit in the Designer wish list closet -- the killer thin and wonderful goat hair cashmere sweater I adore (and paid retail for, shoot me) I should just buy one on sale to balance out life, and a few decent jackets -- go look >>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>

I miss everyone! Will try to get back more often so it isn't like deja vu by the time I respond to a post!
 
Some really luscious looking leather -- I've always liked the browns/rusts


The leather is beautiful, of the mens collections currently in store theres a mesh and leather tank that i like but im not sure i will pay full price for it, i've been cheating on RO with tom ford and chanel menswear of late but this weekend im going to get some new rick things

Ps nearly time for new womenswear collection to walk in paris!
 
I recently had a nice discussion with another member here about the Princess Cut Bomber/Biker jacket and thought I'd share with all my comparison in case anyone else is looking to see some detail shots of this style. Here are a few pics of a recent acquisition compared to an older similar model RO to liven things up in our thread:

Just purchased a 2013 Island Princess Cut Bomber/Biker in black blistered lamb and am comparing it to a (2007?) Gray leather one. I have no idea what the fabrication is - it's labeled LP, but it's texture is almost 'spongy' compared to another LP I've got.

PRINCESS LINE
The older one is seamed at the top and the bottom and the newer (black) one is seamed from top all the way to bottom


WAISTLINE DART
looks like the older one has a curvier, corsetty cut (sorry, I am having trouble turning this photo around... so it may be upside down)


BACK
I think it's probably the leather quality but the blistered lamb has a pressed look.


Love these both; they are not much alike! the black one fits more snugly and looks more formal (and is more warm) than the gray which is way more casual.
 

it feels very classic RO to me, no? at least the first half. I feel like there are jackets and other things we've straight up seen before, like that croc piece on Hanne Gabe (look 3). or is it just similar?

nonetheless I love it. I love the sneaker boots and that new color (look 14+) is basically giving me a heart attack.

considering how many Rick Owens jackets I've acquired in the last two months I have zero business buying anything for at least ten years, but I will have to have a jacket in that
plum/wine/burgundy.

on second look you know why it may all be so familiar? I feel like there are shapes that have been used in menswear before that have been adapted for the ladies.

Yes they look familiar because the last menswear used the same shape. I found this picture of natalya bogacheva rocking an amazing rick owens look, the mink/croc jacket is getting my heart racing ImageUploadedByPurseForum1394283388.236680.jpg
 
Hi. I'm looking at a sheerling jacket. The tag says Gleam A/W 10. I'm assuming it's from autumn/winter of 2010? It also says art RP 6709/LSH montone corto var 0021. Just wondering if anyone knows the meaning of this and also if this was a good collection? I have a lightweight jacket from the spring/summer of 2013 which I love. I have a chance to get this for under $1000 which I think is a good price...? Any advice, help, info would be appreciated.
 
Impulse buy..... One late night ... Broke my ban ... Hope its worth it !! :)
Suede wedge boots - tried the ankle wedge boots last year but those didn't work for me ... Let's see how this one goes

You're right. I've just decided on getting another jacket then.

I'm a little confused. What's the difference between the clean biker jacket, the classic biker jacket and the naska biker jacket? From the pictures, they look the same? But the price is quite different.

Also, the code is LT, what leather is this?
 
Barneyswarehouse is having a pretty awesome sale, i basically threw my ipad against the wall because i missed out on getting a 6k shearling jacket in my size for 700 dollars..... But theres some shoes and stuff for women with an extra 20% and a mens suede brown biker jacket for 500 if people are interested.... Also yoox is doing 10-20% off some rick items too
