Everyone loves a bargain and hence Ebay is such a popular place to shop. You can find just about anything your heart desires- designer wear is usually quite heavily reduced on the Internet and hence there are many stylish women sitting behind a computer, browsing through millions of gorgeous garments. However, if many fashionistas all have their hearts set on the item you want, then you have to bid even higher to get what your heart longs for. Sometimes, this is not practical…
Recently, I discovered some beautiful (and expensive) things on Ebay, however I could only look but not touch.
Every lady needs a pair of elegant and timeless heels from Salvatore Ferragamo. I already own a black patent pair. They are leather inside out and are so chic. I have baby-sat two puppies who shared similar taste in shoes as I and they managed to each chew the bows on my shoes. My Ferragamos are still wearable but they look grungy now…hence my gaze drifted to Ebay to replenish them. These minty flats are very cute, but I do not think they are genuine…
Jimmy Choo is the ultimate accessories luxury brand. Everyone wants to own a pair to strut their stuff around in. I found a sweet Jimmy Choo bag on Ebay. This bi-zipped tote is quite wearble and the leather looks buttery-soft. The starting price was already sky-high though.
These shiny Sergio Rossi brogues are incredible! You could almost admire your reflection in them! I would wear them with skinny jeans and a boyfriend blazer. They are a fantastic shade and I love it how the laces are in the same colour- metallic peach =)
Now this YSL bag is to die for. It is from the current collection. It is modern version of the Hermes Birkin and in my favourite colour! This carry-all would be seen on the wrists of first-ladies as well as on women who like function and style. You can imagine how many bids this bag had…the winning bidder is certainly one lucky lady.
I am sure that most Ebay-oholics have Christian Louboutinson their lust short-list, who does not love the red-lacquered soles! I saw these cute patent tuxedo style heels recently. Even though they are super hip ( love those tussle laces) and they seem to come in a genuine shoe bag and the box, I just do not trust Internet sellers sometimes… They just look a little too shiny and did you notice that the heels of these shoes are not shown? If they are genuine and I was the seller ( I would not be selling them), I would take photos of the soles!
I have been heavily influenced by the youngest and richest fashion blogger Jane Aldridge of Sea of Shoes. She owns 3 pairs of these Ann Demeulmeester lace boots- ion white, tan and black. I saw the black version on American Ebay. I was very tempted…however because I think it may be dangerous to purchase expensive shoes without trying them on first. I tried finding them in shops around Melbourne, but I had little success. They are a show piece and will forever be in my memory.
I cannot believe how she can walk the tiled streets (outside Louvre, Paris) in those heels! I would either trip and break an ankle or get stuck in the grooves and lose a heel. I would not want anything to happen to my stilettos! It seems that material-cutting is quite trendy this season for shoe designers. These shoes have an extra few inches thanks to the tiny platforms under her soles but they do not qualify for ‘platforms’. But surely there is a rule against texting whilst wearing 6 inch heels.
A classic with a twist. This is the most covetable Burberry trench in the trimmest cut and the twist is in the material: beige washed-leather! On ya, Christopher Bailey! It is highly versatile. The shade flatters any skin tone and the cut slims every figure. Its butter-soft leather means ultimate comfort but you will need to befriend a good leather dry-cleaner. With an astronomical price tag, you would want this coat to last forever…
Here is a grey cashmere 
Charles Anastase, a French-Armenian fashion designer is responsible for this vintage-inspired, wool velvet-trimmed coat. His clothes are described as ethereal and nostalgic and it’s not difficult to see why this coat, in particular, has stood the test of time. I am sure that it is qualified for an heirloom. Anastase is a big fan of the 19th Century Victorian silhouette. His garments embrace the femininity of the era and each piece illustrate his mastery of exquisite tailoring. I must admit, I am a lover of chic and conservative style as what is covered up can sometimes be even more demure and sexy. We could modernise the look with skin-tight jeans and tousled hair. This warm coat will beautifully suit the slender figure of one of Anastase’s celebrity admirers : Keira Knightley.
I can see the First Lady in this heavenly number. If See-by-Chloe was around a couple of decades ago, Jackie Onassis and Grace Kelly may have fought over a size 8 version of this wool coat. A classic cut, this coat is sure to polish up any lady’s wardrobe. I am pleasantly surprised by the sophisticated look of the coat, even though it is from the daughter label of Chloe. I love the scalloped pockets and the matching collar. How chic, how Parisian, how Chloe! Add an embellished brooch and some Chanel flats and you could be the next Audrey!
I absolutely adore this black
