Notes of a shopaholic

Friday, April 18, 2003:

Today I purchased two pairs of pants (one cotton gray-green glen plaid, the other velour-effect jeans) from Ted Baker, for a total of $109.80 at Bluefly. I'm always tempted, when placing an order with Bluefly, to get a good deal of stuff to defray the $8 delivery charge. I'm guessing I won't want both--but I'm very curious about 'velour effect' jeans.

The Moschino Cheap and Chic jacket I purchased on Ebay is too small. How complicated is it to size men's jackets? Why would a Hugo Boss jacket fit so differently--we are not talking about nuances of cut, but dramatic differences in size. This one is going back on Ebay...

Ties (and logo t-shirts) are the spam of on-line shopping. Bluefly has about five pages of Zegna ties today before you find a few new jackets from Ted Baker. Do people really spend sixty bucks on ties? Why?
