    the sale online is real bad :sick:
    they never have anything good on there. just trying to get rid of the stuff they dont want. the good items are usually always sold out once u click on them.

    The silver Helmut Lang hi-tops could look good...I'm not sure I could pull them off myself...

    The men's selection,for once,is better than the women's. They've got a Bernhard Willhelm scarf(last I looked,they did)that I'm having convulsions to have. :blush:

    Yea, it's pretty bad. The winter sale at Barneys New York a couple weeks ago was much better and with larger discounts.

    HI SEAN :flower:

    IF ONLY I COULD !!!

    Have you TRIED to get ANYWHERE by train , at this time !

    I cannot afford to fly down from Manchester and I don't fancy driving down in my little Seat Arosa auto - the 4 to 5 hours there and back would be horrendous !!! Even with the new M6 motorway bypass around Birmingham !

    Incidentally , do you think that the sales are worse for bargains this year ? I remember times when you have really been spoilt for choice , whether it's Bond Street , South Molton Street , Sloane Street , Brompton Cross or even, dare I say it , Oxford Street !!!

    I remember a time when L'UOMO REGINE , of blessed memory , was full at sale time of the most gorgeous CLAUDE MONTANA leather jackets and trousers , bought in for the sale from Ideal Cuir , and all at the most amazing reductions !!!

    Since you are the LONDON FASHIONISTA ' par excellence ' , do give us your overall impressions of the sales in London that us poor souls ' UP NORTH ' don't have a cat in hell's chance of getting to !!!

    Yours , in anticipation ,

    KIT :cry: :cry: :cry: :cry:

    HI APOC ( pace Issey Miyake ! ) :flower:

    Listen up Chuckybabes , SURELY ( which prompts the reply - ' and don't call me Shirley !!! - the old ones are always the best ! GEDDIT !!! )

    SURELY you cannot afford to indulge yourself at Browns' sale after buying that white Gucci trenchcoat and those white shoes !!!

    Still , you could be one of those entrepreneurs who is actually ' rolling in it ' and you drive a Porsche 911 . Am I right or am I right ???

    My regards for the New Year ( and don't od on Dsquared2 !!! )

    KIT :innocent: :innocent: :innocent: :innocent:

    Does anybody know what's going on with Pineal Eye? They're website has been taken down and is being used for a search engine/web site builder. It hasn't closed up has it?

    HI SCOTT :flower:

    Perhaps someone actually based in London could confirm or deny this ?

    If it has closed , WHAT A LOSS !!!!

    Overdrafts were invented to be taken out :innocent:

    Maybe Pineal Eye's website wasn't profitable enough and they decided to go for high-street retail only?

    THANKS A MILLION for the info , SEAN :flower:

    It's good news , as I feared it had folded . There was a report on WGSN that a large number of shops in Milan will fold this year , due to the recession , and I thought that THE PINEAL EYE had suffered a fate worse than death , for the same reason .

    You are a real good scout , keeping an eye on everything for us , down there in the metropolis .

    KEEP UP THE GOOD WORK !!!

    regards KIT :heart:

    i remember being in the browns sale shop and practically bouncing with joy when i found the undercover "scab" trousers but then trying them on and making the realisation that no amount of pigging out would get me to fit into a medium!

    Many thanks Acid and the rest :flower:

    If I were to go to Europe in March I was planning to make a visit to London and of course that shop was on top of my agenda.

    Mind you,they never updated the site although I was holding on to a glimmer of hope. They probably just lost their server and are designing a new one.

    Do they have a nice flow of customs?
