Nicely modeled vintage Dolce and Gabbana boots sell for an impressive $399

Even in a small size 36.5 (US 6.5), these tall black Italian leather boots by Dolce and Gabbana sold for a very impressive $399.  Especially impressive as these were the knee-high version of these boots and not the OTK version.

This style rarely appears on eBay, but when it does, always seems to garner some interest.  I've always liked these boots, especially the super sexy pointed toes and stiletto heels.

Although the seller indicated these came with the original box and dust bags, she didn't post photos.  For as many times as I've seen these boots appear on eBay, I've never seen them with the original box and dust bags.

Finally, they're very nicely modeled with the print dress, both sitting and standing.  A great work or holiday party look!  And a special kudos to the seller for posting the maximum 12 photos allowed on eBay - a nice assortment of modeled and unmodeled photos.











Guess by Marciano tall black leather boots fetch a very impressive price

These Guess by Marciano tall black leather boots sold for a very impressive $234.50!

These "Marilla" style boots rarely appear on eBay, and combined with being a large size 10, it ended up being a popular auction.  I especially like how soft the leather looks on these as well as the pull tabs on each side and the sexy, spiked heels.

The seller also stated that these were tall enough to be over-the-knee.





An even more impressive price on Ann Demeulemeester extra long lambskin leather opera gloves

Whereas a recent sale for these Ann Demeuelemeester extra long lambskin leather opera gloves sold for $299, this pair sold for an even more impressive $325.

Designer gloves seem to sell especially well during the holiday season, and this pair was no exception!

This size 8 pair was listed as NWOT and came with the original dust bags.  The stock photo is nice, but it would have been even nicer to see these modeled by the actual seller!

Prada long Italian leather opera gloves sell for $200

eBay glove seller "junkonsale" sold these Prada long Italian leather opera gloves for their starting bid of $199.99.  These size 7.5 gloves measured 23" long and have an unusual button closure at the wrists.  Most mosquetaire gloves I've seen have multiple buttons or snaps.

These appear to be in very good condition and should make a fine addition to someone's glove collection.

An impressive price on Ann Demeulemeester extra long lambskin leather opera gloves

eBay glove seller "junkonsale" got an impressive price on these Ann Demeulemeester extra long lambskin leather opera gloves for $299.99.  These size 7.5 gloves were listed as "new with defects" due to a separation of the stitching near the thumb.

These stunning gloves measure just over 27" long and came with their original dustbag and tags.







Report Signature Fairfax boots nicely modeled

A popular eBay boot seller sold these size 8 Report Signature 28" Fairfax black leather thigh-high boots for $149.99.  Although I've never been a fan of these boots, I can appreciate the nice modeling, especially paired with skinny jeans and a sweater dress!

Carolina Amato black leather opera gloves sell for $300!

eBay glove seller "junkonsale" sold these Carolina Amato long black lambskin leather opera gloves for an impressive $299.99

These gloves are a size 8 and measure 22 3/4" long.

The attention to detail on these designer gloves is very nice and they're in great condition.  No wonder they fetched a really nice price!



Vintage Dolce and Gabbana boots reappear after a long absence on eBay

It was a very pleasant surprise to see some of my all-time favorite boots reappear on eBay after a long absence.  These are vintage (1990s?) Dolce and Gabbana, only the knee-high version instead of thigh-high.  Even better, they were nicely modeled.

The listing is appropriately titled "Tall Black Dolce and Gabbana Leather Stiletto Boots Size 36 1/2."  They're only listed with a Buy It Now price of $449.99 with pricey $17.99 shipping, although the seller is accepting offers.

She goes on to describe them as "Gorgeous Italian leather boots. Soft leather lining.  Boots come with the original box and the dust bags. Very good looking. Shaft upper circumference is 14".  Total height is 21".  High heel is 4".  Made in Italy."

As someone who has owned this style, she's right, these are "gorgeous Italian leather boots" which are "very good looking."  I really wish she had posted photos of the original box and dust bags as I'd like to see what these boots originally came in.  A photo of the box would also be nice if it showed the original retail price!

Still, she provided some excellent still photos as well as modeled photos.  They look great paired with this print dress, which would make a stunning, although distracting, work outfit!  I can see a sales clerk at a high-end department store wearing this look, or an executive assistant, or even a hostess at a nice restaurant.























The seller is obviously into high-end boots as she currently has listed three other pairs ($149 Miu Miu, $249 Gucci, and $679 Yves Saint Laurent!), but none nearly as nice as these!
