Re: Your recent acquisition

I'll be in Paris as well. Looking forward to it, despite having to stay about 30min outside of Paris.

whats in the ann bag? belt?

Re: Your recent acquisition



The half-scissor necklace, black/white. In the VB bag is a perfect black dress shirt and the VB issues of A magazine, in the Louis bag a Rick Owens jacket in the same colorway that AKA was selling, but hoodless (the fucker makes the best fitting jackets, what can I say), the gray bag has a Stephen Schneider scarf (really lovely). Will post pix of the actual haul when I get back. And I am still going to Stijl in Brussels - Jesus save me.

Mesh, it depends on how you want to get to Antwerp from Paris - 2 hours by train - expensive, 3.5 hours by bus (I don't know why so long) - very cheap. I say do it - it's such a wonderful experience.

Re: Your recent acquisition

The train between Paris and Antwerp is a high speed train called Thalys. Travel time is approximately 2h10. If you buy the tickets sufficiently in advance (2 months) you'll pay around EUR 100, next departure tickets would be approximately EUR 190. It's expensive, but very comfortable. You can buy tickets online : http://www.thalys.com/be/en/?xtor=51

The bus would take you 5h30 (the distance is 350 km). Tickets are approximately EUR 30-45. You can buy them online at: www.eurolines.fr. You'll have to get a bus really early (at 6 am or so) if you want to get back to Paris the same day. Shops in Belgium close quite early compared to other countries. On weekdays at 18h-18h30, on saturday some are open until 19h. Shops are not open on sundays.

[quote user="Faust"]Fuck the euro - you have to consciously make the decision that you only live once. The VAT helps a little bit, too.

I like your attitude...that's my motto too! Cheers [B]

Yes. Let me know if you want one. I got the black one, but it's really dark gray (there is also light gray). It's 95 EUR.

yes. the belt is just a piece of fabric (no buckle, you tie it), they have them in different colors.
