Ebay...long time no shop.

Lately Ebay, these days, is ridiculous. I find great stuff and I literally get outbidded by 10 cents in the last 5 seconds. Now that's just not fair, now is it?! I gave up on Ebay after my last 3 encounters for the past month in a half. I realized Ebay was getting too trendy and everybody was catching on. The sellers started upping their prices and amateur bidders bid early so the price is higher in the end. It sucks.
Last night, I subconsciously went on Ebay(after about 6 week getaway). I found soo many great boots for my sized 11 cro-magnon foot...and also two great vintage dresses! What is so great also is that they are priced super low and nobody has yet to bid on them. Let me not get ahead of myself. I'm usually successful at getting shoes on Ebay: 1. because nobody wears a size 11 and 2. I know certain keywords to type in to find my favorites. I do some hard searching to find perfect items I most likely won't be able to find in New Orleans. One boot ended last night with no bids, but now it is relisted. I'm gaining some sort of hope back.They are pretty plain but i can see them turning some of my outfits out, being the final piece to making my outfit look amazing. Here are some things I watching right now on Ebay.



I love the texture of these boots. the owner says they are quite flaky on the inside. I duno if i could deal with that. i already bought a pair of boots from ebay that is flaky and kind of sticky inside. TRUE VINTAGE!

I love these boots...simple, navy, able to fold down.

These are the boots in which I could see turning any of my outfits out. I love creme colored boots!

Oh yes! Finally a pair of cute combat boots mixed with a great gatsby fringe. the best of all? In my size and high top!
These red ones are my number ones for now. I must have them! i need them in my life.

So I have a love/hate relationship with this dress. I love the florals and ruffled sleeves and material looks nice. But i dont know if it will be flattering on me or possibly to matronly for my taste? I feel like i can make it modern somehow. but how?

I love the neckline of this dress..the dress is a mix of nautical and 80s.
