Going to pop back up to Dublin on Wednesday anc check out a few sales.
Same
I'm so excited to go shopping... Especially in Urban Outfitters. That shop is like Heaven!
I checked out some stuff on their website last night ... Tried to buy a lot of it but there was a problem with their check out service, for some reason ... Probably just as well... I was about to hand over a small fortune!

So... Much... Wrong...
I really can't stand UO...Give me a shout when you are in town Faj. Might have time to grab a coffee.
I will of course, good sir. I'll most likely be back in the city early enough in the morning - Are you any where near Abbey St? A Boards head opened up a lovely little cafe there, serves fantastic stuff.0 -

Other than the fact it's overpriced, I love it!
It's mentally overpriced! Does stuff come down in the sales much? I have only ever bought Cheap Monday jeans there and thunderbirds coasters for my coffee table (!) but nothing ever fits me there:(0 -

Quite a bit, actually
Sale stuff starts from about 30% off (Can be up to about 70% off) ... You can definitely get some decent bargains!
Students get 10% off in there too.0 -
Whats the name of that place and where is it? (Middle Abbey, Lower Abbey?)
Middle Abbey St - It's called Third Floor Espresso, and he sells some cracking coffeeI love Urban Outfitters!!!!
I'm about to head on over to interwebby UO and make my credit card sad! It has the best homewares ever!
Bloody hipsters :pac:0 -

It's still nice to have the little bit off non-sale items anyway though 0 -

Despite the fact you're no longer a student!
The discount in shops is one of the only things I enjoy about being in college now!

Nice! When's it valid until?My student card is vaild for another 3 days... \o/
Use it! I don't think you can use it online, but you can make the most of it on Wednesday in Dublin!
Loads of places offer student discount.
Topman have 15% off at the moment ... Not sure if you'd consider buying anything in there, but it's a heads up, at least 0 -

I really don't like ordering clothes online - I'd much rather head in to someplace and get the full treatment - get doors opened, proper measurements, trying on trousers unfinished so they'll fit perfect, and a "goodbye, sir" on the way out :pac:
I'd be waaaay too disappointed if something I ordered online didn't work out - At least if I'm in the shop, I know what I'm getting!
For a lot of stuff I'd agree but Hawaii is a long way to go just to buy 2 or 3 new Aloha shirts. I'm older than Minecraft goats.

You can use you Student Travel Card in Boots now! I was excited to learn this! 10% afair. Got dark red dye so hopefully later I'll have lovely new hair
Hit the sales today, town was bonkers. Tip for anyone purchasing in BT... there's no queues in downstairs menswear 0 -

That's because it's sh*te down there...
I was very disappointed when I popped down a few weeks before Christmas.
Yeah I had a quick look around, it just seemed like the same stuff over ad over again, regardless of brand. And a load of Diesel and CK boxers!
But the bloke on the till left the security tag on my lovely new bag Super! 0 -

Goatie, bit of a question here for you...
Thought I'd ask on thread, so more than myself can benefit! Hope you don't mind!
Friend of mine has bought a black suit and he's looking for a shirt to go with it. I suggested classic white, but he wants something a bit more colourful. What would your ideas be? 0 -
I've not been around the sales. I'll go into Lewins tomorrow and get a dozen stock shirts. They usually do 3 for €100 or some deal like that. That will get me through the year for day to day wear. Then I'll go for a wander and see who is selling what. But, tbh I don't like the shirts that most outlets are stocking these days.
Where's Lewins in Dublin? Didn't even know they had a branch over here!
Ditto.I don't do 'Slim Fit' :rolleyes:
I can send you on a few links to what's going on in London when I get back over.pikachucheeks wrote: »Goatie, bit of a question here for you...

If you don't mind another opinion;
What's the suit for? And is a solid black, a black pinstripe or a black micropattern?
I'd see a black suit as fitting into very certain occasions, now, some folk would disagree with that, but it's just the way I'd see them.
I'd agree with starting with a *good* white shirt - nice collar and double cuffs, no shirt pocket, then buy some nice cufflinks - Bring your colour in with the tie then.0 -

Lewens is on South Anne Street, between Grafton St and Dawson St. - Near the La Cava winebar (so recommended for a platter and a half carafe) I'm older than Minecraft goats.

He's wearing it for New Year's. A few friends and he decided they'd wear suits and be formal! As far as I know, it's a solid black suit and he wants to inject some colour with the shirt and tie.
I suggested a white shirt, because it's classic and looks well. Then I suggested a black shirt and red tie ... but that could be a bit too My Chemical Romance! :pac:On the plus side, black is a neutral colour and so the whole colourbox is yer oyster. He can wear anything he likes with black. Just be sure to accessorize properly with the tie etc.
I'm at a loss, what to suggest to him, to be honest. I know black goes with anything, but in my head ... black and white go perfectly and black wouldn't look right with more 'novelty' colours like pink or yellow. And it clashes with blue, apparently :P
Maybe black suit, deep red shirt and black tie? ... Or maybe I'm failing miserably here! 0 -

:O I think I have to go shopping.
Has anyone seen any halfway decent boots anywhere lately? All I can find are boots that are either open-toe, over the knee or covered in buckles and studs. I'm looking for a pair that'll keep me dry on the way to college but still look lovely ! I had a grand pair from Dunnes that lasted me a year but finally gave in after 2 months of walking in the rain.
Also someone decide whether I want black or brown boots! I can't make up my mind at all.0 -

Cremo, they're lovely looking! Maybe have a look in River Island? I don't know what their mens shoes are like these day but an ex got a pair very much like them a few years ago.
Yeah I think you're right about the brown boots but I can have a pair in each colour right??
I love a pair of lace up boots, I've wanted them ever since I was a kid. Something like this without the seam at the front or something like these with a lower heel so I could wear them daily without dying. I love the second pair, I think they're just beautiful.
I'd completely forgotten about Buffalo and I'd never have thought of fat face at all! I'm sure your boots are beautiful in real life. I think buckles like that are fine, just some of the ones about look awful. 0 -
