I’ve been keeping tabs on Berlin store Apartment ever since an old search for Les Chiffoniers leggings led me there, and I’ve always favored their buying eye. But nothing, and I mean nothing, could prepare me for this belt (Below), by the store’s namesake label. I want to play with all ten buckles. For hours. Is it a waist belt I wonder, or is it meant to be worn high on the hip? I wish I was holding this damn thing in my hand instead of looking at this ungratifying picture of it!!!!
These Rick Owens boots (Below)? Look. At. The lines. I bet they’re comfortable too.
Their website deserves praise for being both dingy and sleek simultaneously. And judging by the evidence (Below), these qualities reflect the physical store’s interior as well.
Hmm…so if I think this through, the Rick Owens boots may be almost three times as expensive as the antique (white velvet!!) couch I bought today, but they’re also about $500-$1000 less than catching a roundtrip flight to Berlin this week. So- if I choose to do my traveling vicariously through the footwear, does that technically constitute a bargain?
