Vintage Italian gray leather OTK boots sell for $150

These vintage gray over-the-knee leather boots sold for their starting bid of $149.99. These nicely modeled boots were a size 9 and made in Italy by Mignani.  The seller stated the boots were 40 years old and "from the era of the original thigh-high boots."

These boots feature an interesting tie/bow detail in the rear as well as the ability to be worn cuffed. The wooden stacked heels almost remind me of vintage Dingo boots.







Rare Italian black leather thigh-high boots sell for $199

Originally listed with a Buy It Now price of $275, the seller relisted these boots with a significantly lower Buy It Now price of $199.  These were listed as rare black leather thigh-high boots, size 40 /10 US, made in Italy.  Nicely modeled, these boots were new with box.

There was some really nice detailing on these, from the nice almond toe to the split at the top of the shaft, which allows them to be worn cuffed as well as flexibility behind the knees.













A deal on Anne Klein boots, nicely modeled

For $19.99, someone got a deal on these nicely modeled size 8 black leather dress boots by Anne Klein New York.  While they pair very nicely with skinny jeans, these would look equally great worn with a pencil skirt to the office.

Vintage Wild Pair chap boots sell for $625!!!

These vintage Wild Pair chap boots sold for an unbelievable $625.00!  These size 8.5 boots were the classic Wild Pair "buck" style.  The seller also admitted they'd been exposed to smoking in clubs and at home.

This is quite possibly the most I've ever seen any pair of Wild Pair boots sell for...and pictures weren't even that great.  However, I will agree with the seller that these boots are "ultra rare."

 


These stunning Gianvito Rossi over-the-knee black leather boots sold for a deserving $780.  These "new with box" boots were listed as a size 37.5.  These boots were worn one time and came with the original box, dust bags, heel taps, and vendor info card.  The seller stated that these came out in Fall 2015 with an original MSRP of $2,010!

These boots have been on my "wish list" for about a year now, but I haven't come across a pre-owned pair in my price range.  I especially like the pull-on styling which gives them especially clean lines. The spiky heels and pointed toes just add to the sleekness of these beautiful boots!

Dressy enough paired with a pencil skirt for a day at the office and stylish enough worn over skinny jeans for a night out!

Long black leather opera gloves found at a Goodwill store!

eBay glove seller "junkonsale" sold these Fratelli Orsini long Italian leather opera gloves for an impressive $126.49.  This auction also had an impressive 28 bids.

These size 7 gloves were silk-lined and measured 22.5" long.  The seller stated they were found at a Goodwill store.  In all of my thrift store shopping, I have never seen a pair of gloves this nice!  No doubt the seller made a nice profit!

On Amazon, these gloves are currently selling for $215.95.

Stunning Gianvito Rossi black leather OTK boots sell for $1,000

These Gianvito Rossi black leather OTK boots with stiletto heels sold for their Buy It Now price of $1,000. The seller stated that these brand new in box size 39.5/9.5 boots were bought directly from net-a-porter.com for $1,790 and came in the original box with dust bags and inserts.   These were listed by boot seller "livefire" who continues to show their excellent taste in boots!

These boots have been near the top of my wish list for awhile now!  I especially like the clean lines, stiletto heels, and sexy pointed toes.  That and the luxurious leather makes these pretty close to the "perfect boot" style for me!  These would look amazing at the office paired with a tweed pencil skirt as well as a night out on the town paired with skinny jeans and a black leather jacket.























As an added bonus, the seller posted several online photos of these stunning boots being modeled!
