What are you wearing today?

[faust]

Man, so many nice outfits, but I have to say my fav is probably droogist's junya top outfit. So nice. Maybe I'm biased .

I actually had relatively interesting (I mean this objectively (I think) and entirely non-boastfully) outfits on at the weekend because it was cold:-

Sat.

Junya bright blue mountain jacket
Faded olive carpe diem sweatshirt
dark 45rpm jeans
beige cons

Sun

Navy CDGH+ coat with pink buttons and pink doublefaced interior
Navy polyester garment dyed polo top by CDGH+
White CDG Shirt tee
same jeans as above
Grey and pink CDGH+ trainers.

Very nice, Johnny, especially the Sat. outfit I want to wear a coat too! Hell, I want to walk one block without soaking in sweat, is that too much to ask for? When will this madness stop??!!

 

[Johnny]

Thanks Faust. I feel sorry for all you fashion conscious NYCers!! All I wore in the heat in Provence on my hols was jeans and a tee shirt, and I got sick of that quite quickly!

 

[helena]

oh dear - have you tried using a water spray faust? I found that helped a lot.

I had a fashion crisis yesterday.

saturday I wore

*navy l/s top - petit bateau
*burgundy jersey tiered top with large round jersey rose in the centre of a very deep v - isabel marant
*skinny blue jeans - paul & joe
*pointy burgundy flats with cream stitching - marni
*burgundy duster coat - ? from Urban outfitters
*royal blue messeger bag with blue/white striped thick strap - bally

 

[softgrey]

Water spray? No, but I like to walk right through the sprinklers on people's lawns on the way to the subway (yes, Manhattanites, people in Brooklyn have lawns, how about that? ).

Johnny, at 90% humidity here only lunatics wear jeans, so you were lucky in Provence

On topic:

Black mercerized cotton polo shirt - Prada (old faust's closet )
Khaki flat front pants without front pockets - Margiela
Same ol' shoes (I need new everyday shoes) - Collection Privee

 

[helena]

faust - sounds nice! get thee out & buy a bottle of avene or evain spray....NOW!

 

[softgrey]

haha faust...
the other day my super had the hose out and was washing his car, so i asked him to 'hose me down'...

he basically made a 'sprinkler' for me to walk under...
yes people...we are desperate over here...!!

(Plus must try to get hands on that Isabel Marant burgundy jersey thingy...wasn't in my boutique here... )

is there an Isabel Marant shop in Holland? if so where?

 

[droogist]

Thanks Curious and Johnny.

scandinavianchic - smart outfits as usual; I really like that necklace you posted a while back...

Mettchen - very cute, and a nice color scheme to boot.

tangerine - I was imagining something a li'l different when you said ballet shoes! Still, it's a great outfit.

softgrey, that's just lovely

breathoxygen - You look adorable! Great t-shirt and great jeans.

utopia - I second softgrey: jeans! Picture pleeze...

QuirkyCool - Both good outfits, but that dress is just gorgeous on you.

Johnny - sounds like 2 amazing outfits. (Have you posted a pic of that pink-buttoned Comme coat before? I'd like to see it...)

helena - very nice, the marant top sounds very pretty

Whew. Today:

Black tank
Black shirt w/beaded tie on one sleeve - Ann Demeulemeester
Black skirt w/cutout at hem and chiffon underlayer - Hussein Chalayan
Black motorcycle boots - Ann Demeulemeester
Settingless pearl solitaire necklace

 

[QuirkyCool]

is there an Isabel Marant shop in Holland? if so where?

Nope...but there is a boutique here in Rotterdam which has two locations,one of which only stocks Isabel Marant

It's called Van Dijk.So if you're ever over here...

 

[faust]

Hey that's a nice outfit Faust. Faust 'n' Prada?!

well, i put a disclaimer . I don't WANT to wear it, I HAVE to.

 

[faust]

softie "hose me down"

<faints after seeing droogist's outfit>

 

[QuirkyCool]

Droogist...once more.....WOW!!!!!!

 

[droogist]

I'm so jealous...have you guys noticed that I'm all in autumn clothes? This weekend I nearly turned on the heating,but then just opted for an extra comforter...

I know, it's been f-f-freezing! I had the same idea as you, but as it turns out, I didn't even have the option - my heating broke over the weekend! I didn't even have hot water. Damn Dutch weather. (And damn Dutch refusal to fix heaters on Sundays...)

edit: thanks faust and Quirk!

 

[helena]

droogist - you look fantastic. I also tried to give you karma for the last outfit which was gorgeous too - I like how your clothes always seem very graphic in cut and colour. would you agree?

quirky - thanks I'll bear it in mind - what about Amsterdam - any stockists there? ...well maybe i'll start a thread in shopping....

 

[helena]

its the same here in Scotland - its been autumn for the last two weeks now....hence my fashion crisis yesterday - summer/autumn? autumn/summer?

 

[droogist]

Thanks helena. I would agree indeed, my taste is clothing definitely runs towards the geometric. Sometimes I get bored though - I had a little clothing crisis of my own this morning and ended up ransacking my entire closet before finally falling back on the same old, same old.
