North Beach Leather military dress and jacket
Great modeling on this classic vintage North Beach Leather military style jacket and dress.
This size 5/6 dress and jacket combo sold for a deserving $300.
Marni long black leather gloves
Italian leather trench coat sells for $610!
This previously-owned Bottega Veneta black leather trench coat received 22 bids and sold for a very impressive $610.50. This Italian-made trench was a size 42 and looks to be very well-made of buttery soft leather. I especially like the wide leather tie belt.
Nice pictures, but it would have been even nicer to have seen this modeled.

A leather catsuit for $26?!
I find it hard to believe that this real leather catsuit modeled after Sienna Miller's "Baroness" character in the GI Joe movie only sold for $26.00, or that the seller let it go for so little. The seller stated that it was custom-made for the girl in the photos and they didn't like the way it fit.
Obviously it didn't include the armor, the gloves, boots, belt, or prop guns. Still, for a custom-made leather catsuit, this was a steal at $26.00!
Of course, I have to wonder if this costume was made for roleplaying, Comic-Con, or Halloween? And as the suit was modeled outside, what do the lucky neighbors think?
Neiman Marcus black leather trench coat
This Neiman Marcus black leather trench coat was very appealing except for a ripped pocket. The styling is classic with clean lines and I'm sure the Neiman leather is buttery soft. This would look stunning paired with black leather boots, matching gloves and a beret. The collar is also nicely sized and could be worn turned up for an extra mysterious look.
This size medium coat sold for its Buy It Now price of $99.00.
A deal on used Stuart Weitzman "Hilo" thigh boots
Even with some light wear and water spots, someone got a deal on a great pair of Stuart Weitzman "Hilo" thigh-high boots in a popular size 9 for $187.50. I also appreciated that they were nicely modeled, too.
Finally, I think the seller's recommended style tip would make for a great look: Stylist Tip: Wear these boots with a tunic top and leggings for a sleek and sophisticated look.

Vintage Wild Pair black leather thigh boots
Rare light brown distressed leather thigh boots
Even in a small size 7, eBay boot seller securepay.llc sold these rare light brown leather thigh boots for a very deserving $202.49. These are styled like classic vintage Frederick's of Hollywood thigh boots, or possibly even Wild Pair. Besides the rare brown distressed leather look, I especially like the nicely pointed toes and very sexy spiked heels.
Needless to say, they look great modeled with fur, leggings, a plaid skirt, and of course, jeans. The seller said they were used mostly for photo shoots.
