Catsuits and long gloves, thigh boots and trenchcoats...these are a few of my favorite things!

Newport News leather dress fetches a nice price
Because they rarely appear on eBay these days, this size 12 Newport News black leather zip-front dress sold for a very impressive $152.50. As someone who sold several of these a few years ago, I wish I had more to sell if they're fetching this kind of price!
Very nicely modeled vintage thigh boots
Sexy Wild Pair boots for only $69.00?!

More Carolina Amato long black leather gloves
It's nice to see that some long leather gloves can still fetch a decent price on eBay.
These size 7, 22.5" long black leather gloves by Carolina Amato sold for $113.50. Considering the gloves were new and still attached with string, someone probably paid a lot less than original retail.
Still, it's nice to know that I didn't overpay when I spent $99 recently for even longer Carolina Amato leather gloves in a more desirable size 8. It's also nice to know that Carolina Amato makes long leather gloves without the wrist opening, which can be an issue with the pair I recently bought.
Vintage Members Only leather jacket sells for near $200!
Whoa, this vintage black leather Members Only jacket sold for a very impressive $192.50!
As it was a size 38, I put in a bid at $68 having no idea that the jacket would sell for almost triple that. The seller said that it was in pristine condition and appears to have never been worn, and from the picture, that appears to be true.
Someone got a classic leather jacket in mint condition, but paid a decent price for it, too!
UPDATE 11/16/2008: Another Members Only black leather jacket in this size, which didn't look as nice as the one pictured above, sold for a very impressive $207.50. I sure wish I had some stock of these jackets to sell because they're fetching very nice prices on eBay!
More nice modeling from an eBay seller
Once again, eBay seller "millstreetvintage" provides some great modeling for this fur cape auction. Although I'm not a fan of the actual item up for auction, the modeling is great with an attractive blonde wearing a beret, long leather gloves, and tight jeans tucked into classic black leather spike-heel boots. The gloves look especially good in these photos!

Donna Karan OTK riding boots sell for $499!
Someone snapped up these size 8 Donna Karan OTK riding style boots using Buy It Now for $499. Interesting, the buyer was from Italy, home to some of the finest boots ever made!
These 23" tall boots are very rich-looking, and just masculine enough looking that I think I could pull off wearing them. Although they look like they could be very comfortable, they have a little Nazi jackboot look to them.
Although they're not my size and definitely not my price range, it's nice to know that there are really cool boots out there like this!
