They're here!





After more than a week of waiting, the Raf Simons x Fred Perry shoes are finally here! Decided to get the size 8 (US) instead and they fit like a glove.

Many thanks to the kind people at Opening Ceremony Online for giving me the exact measurements of the shoe which helped me a lot in deciding whether to get them or not.

Beautiful!!!!

My blazer arrived last week and....it was a wrong colour. I ordered navy but they send me grey. I have to send it back.

ALPHABETICALIFE said...

Damon:
They are - not very comfortable though. Ouch! I hope they send you the bomber jacket without any problems this time. Btw, enjoy the festival!

I have the same pair...and the ankle hurts!!! I'm trying to break them in...

ALPHABETICALIFE said...

QUIETLYLOUD:
Yes, the ankle part surely does hurt! I'm trying to break them in as well too. My feet got banged up pretty badly the first time I used them.

while we're on the topic of shoes.. maybe you can ID these that Mr. Lim is wearing:

I can't figure it out.

Those shoes are from his own label..i think it's the upcoming A/W collection and they are a collaboration with Christian Louboutin. LOVE it!
