A timeless black leather pencil skirt by Emanuel Ungaro

This gorgeous Emanuel Ungaro vintage leather pencil skirt sold for $39.99.  Listed as a size 4 but the measurements seem larger - 27.5" waist and 27" length.  I especially love the slim silhouette and the belt loops.

This would look stunning paired with black leather boots and a crisp white blouse!

One of the nicest leather skirts I've seen on eBay in a long time.




Vintage North Beach Leather trench coat sells for $340

The vintage Michael Hoban "North Beach Leather" trench coat was listed with a Buy It Now price of $339.99 but sold for its Best Offer price.  I wish eBay would reveal these Best Offer prices, but they don't.

Although a small size 3/4, this coat appears to be in excellent condition and nicely photographed on a mannequin.  It's one of the nicest leather trench coats I've seen for sale on eBay in quite awhile.

This coat features classic double-breasted styling with adjustable wrist straps.  Oh, and it looks stunning with the wide collar turned up.  Very spy chic!

The seller indicated it was from her personal collection and was only worn a few times.

Leather trench coats appear to be coming back in style and this one is definitely a very well-made investment piece which should last the lucky winner for years to come!






A vintage pair of boots with holes in them sells for what?!

File this one under "Are you kidding me?!"

An eBay seller listed these vintage OTK boots with a starting bid of $200.  I was sure she'd have to relist them with a lower starting price...but I was wrong.  These boots got three bids and sold for an amazing $411.00!  Why I'm so amazed is that the boots have holes in them - serious holes!

Yes, this looks like the mouth of a catfish!



Yes, they're a popular size 10 but it appears that someone has a fetish for "well worn" boots as the seller described in her auction title.

From the seller: these boots should have been thrown in the trash 25 years ago lol. they might be fixable. but more for the collector I think. this boot style was made by two lips in the early 90's. very rare today, they are just about all gone now over the years.

Otherwise, the boots were nicely modeled with leggings.  


Interesting, as there were apparently two different modeling sessions as in some photos, the model is wearing solid grey leggings and in others, patterned grey leggings.
