I'm starting a new feature here on the blog called "Real Deals." These are items that sold for an unbelievably low price. Also, these are often items I would have bid on had they been in my size.
These vintage Italian OTK boots have some of my favorite features in a pair of classic boots. I especially like the tall, narrow stacked heels, the nicely rounded toes, and the fact that they can be worn cuffed or uncuffed for two different looks. Although they do show some wear on the soles, the seller indicated that these were in mint condition. I only wish the seller had provided a few pictures of the boots being modeled, although they are a very small size. Although these didn't sell on their first listing, someone got a real deal on these size 6 boots for their opening bid of $29.99 when they were re-listed!
I know from personal experience that Andrew Marc leather coats are very well made and usually feature buttery soft leather. I also know from experience that they usually run large. I've bought and sold a few Andrew Marc leather coats on eBay because they ended up fitting much larger than I'd expected. That said, maybe I should have bid on this Andrew Marc black leather trench coat in a size Small. Quite possibly the lowest I've ever seen an Andrew Marc leather trench sell for, this one went for $12.99! Needless to say, this trench would look great paired with the boots above!
Another deal on a women's black leather trench coat in an extra small size 3/4. This vintage 1980s leather trench by J. Walden sold for only $9.99. Although not the leather quality of the Andrew Marc above, I like the classic styling, especially the large collar. The rear flap detail is interesting as well. At 44" long, the length is perfect for wearing with knee-high (or taller) boots!
Finally, these Casadei designer black leather knee-high boots with nice spiked heels sold for $19.99. I'm not sure what kept me from bidding on these Italian-made size 9.5N boots, maybe because I thought the spiked heels got a little too wide near the top. Also, the seller said they needed new heel tips.
