    Does anyone have pictures of their Barker Blacks?

    at the request of jimmyoneill, here are some various Barker Blacks, some of which I have sold recently, including rioni's pair above. Archdale Wingtip - Antique Chesnut Calf Wolfe Bit Loafer - Pewter Calf (it's really more grey than this, the flash brings out the brown undertones)...

    Crisis of Conscience and New Year's Resolution

    My resolution is to not shop at all for clothing and non-essential items in 2009, put some of that money in savings, and spend the rest on charity. I am one of those persons who has a good income and a fairly secure job, and I feel like it's time for me to give even more back. I am sharing this...

    Brand new Kiton store to open at Saks

    Sorry to throw cold water on this thread, but you've got to wonder about the intelligence of this decision. Job losses are occurring by the tens of thousands per month, and those (including myself) predicting a turnaround of this trend are saying that such is still several years off. Only 2...

    What clothing/shoe store/chain/brands would you like to see go bankrupt?

    With more than 500,000 jobs lost in the U.S. in November, I don't want to see ANY enterprise in this country go out of business. It affects all of us as well as our communities when stores like the ones mentioned in this thread close. Please don't confuse frustration with impolite or snooty...

    An Incredible Sale at Saks!

    first of all, employees rarely get 30% off at these types of dept stores. second, they have a strict rule against abusing employee discounts for anyone besides themselves and their family. if you did get one to help you with their employee discount, either he/she is reckless or they did not...

    An Incredible Sale at Saks!

    you mean total 279 for both shoes, or 279 each?? For both pairs! This was the Saks at Mazza Gallerie in D.C. I'm going back tomorrow.

    An Incredible Sale at Saks!

    Today I snagged a pair of Ferragamo suede motorcycle boots and a pair of A Testoni suede monk strap shoes, $279 for both! Also, added a Brioni sportcoat for $600, 3 Armani sweaters for $280, a Jill Sander sweater for $85, and Etro and Dior shirts for $150. This is not a joke!

    2-Day Sale at Neiman Marcus

    @ Leslierc Does you NM stock Lobb monks ? I saw 4 styles of Lobbs, but no monks. Saw a beautiful pair of Kiton monks at 40% off (originally $2200).

    2-Day Sale at Neiman Marcus

    I visited the NM in D.C. (Mazza Gallerie) today and purchased a Brioni sport coat, a pair of Oxxford trousers (both 30% off), 2 NM brand cashmere pullovers (also 30% off) and a pair of Prada brown suede chuka-style hiking boots (40% off). There were several styles of Kiton and Lobb shoes on...

    Banana Republic Aero Leather Knock-off

    Not a knock-off. That style is "classic" and has been produced by any number of manufacturers for years. Folks I grew up with in NYC in the 60s usually got theirs at Alexanders.

    Alexandria VA - clothing solutions

    Welcome to the "neighborhood"! I live in Silver Spring, Md. and work in Arlington, Va. In my opinion, the "best" dry cleaner in the area is Prestige, which is on Georgia Ave. near the intersection of Seminary Rd. in Silver Spring. A hike, yes, but if you have anything that's really nice and want...

    I'm a 34 chest. Where can I buy suits?

    Try Ralph Lauren "Black Collection" suits. They begin at 36R and are very much on the slim side. Many are on sale right now at RL stores.

    Morgan Freeman's Suits in Wanted

    If anyone here saw Wanted, do you know whose clothes Morgan Freeman wore? If I had to guess, I would say either Isaia or Borrelli based on the cut and fabric. A so-so movie, but gorgeous clothes!

    Can I help you? is annoying

    I don't mind being asked if I need assistance when I'm shopping particularly since I've noticed recently in a lot of stores, such as RL, Saks, and NM, that additional sizes of certain items are sometimes not on the selling floor. Personally, whether intended or not, I consider a "may I...

    D.C. Neiman Marcus - Last Call!

    Good Last Call suit selection at the Neiman Marcus at the Mazza Gallerie. I snagged a solid brown Kiton and a gray shadow stripe Brioni.

    Isaia shirts

    "Slim" as opposed to "fitted", I agree.

    RL Sale Begins May 15th

    In case anyone is interested, the 12D Grants in black that my salesperson had shipped-in to the Chevy Chase store for me didn't fit (too narrow). I left them there on Saturday.
