Selling on eBay

Hi friends, I have a bunch of stuff for sale on eBay, why not grab yourself a bargain?! 

My listings.

Creeping around

Shirt: eBay $15, skirt: Cotton On (via op shop) $6

Shoes: 'Creeps' (by Lipstik, bought at Betts for Her) $89.99

As you can see, I'm not a fan of ironing my clothes.

Have to do my creepers up real tight, like a goober. Narrow feet = need shorter laces. 

Happy Wednesday!

Doc Martens for sale!

Hi lovelies,

I'm selling a pair of ladies size 8 Doc Martens. Black, near new condition, just a few scuff marks from the handful of times I've worn them. Need to clear some room in the wardrobe for new Winter shoes (creepers, boots, etc.)

Check out my eBay listing and tell your friends!

DIY baby

I've always been a fan of customising my clothing/shoes/accessories to make them look the way I want and also stand out from the things other people are wearing. When I was in high school I sewed buttons on to my Converse hi-tops (win), spray painted t-shirts (not so win) and sewed op shop jeans to make them skinnier (win).

Lately, my customising efforts have gone as far as cutting skirts to make them shorter and not hemming them as I'm too lazy to visit my Nanna to use her sewing machine. Last night I actually achieved something by putting star-shaped studs on a plain pair of boots I bought from Cotton On for $10.

I bought two types of studs from eBay - stars and cones - and also plan to buy a shirt or two so I can cover the collar in cone studs. It's easy, you just push the spikes through the fabric and fold them down. A bit sore on the ol' fingers (could have used a thimble) and a bit fiddly but fun nonetheless.

Ta da!

 So it's nothing dramatic but the studs definitely dress up a very plain pair of boots. And considering I already have a similar pair of brown boots covered in pyramid studs (not DIY, bought from eBay) I didn't want to go over the top.

What do you think?

New pics and op-shop goodies.

Heyo, yes it's been a while but I am happy to report I have some new photos/outfits to show. The setting is far less exciting than I imagined (behold, my loungeroom), but I was struck by late night/early morning motivation. Here are the results:

T-shirt from Supre, skirt, shoes and belt from Salvos.

Tank from Salvos, skirt from Factorie.

Shirt from Jay Jays, necklace is a hand-me-down from Aunty.

Shirt from Jay Jays, pants (with matching belt worn as a necktie) from Primark, shoes from eBay, belt from Salvos.

Vest from eBay, skirt from Savers.

New watch from Live and wristband borrowed from my sister.

eBay update

When I can't shop at Marion (because you can't work and shop at the same time, unfortunately) I come home and shop online. It's a terrible and costly habit but I simply love owning things. Hence, my latest eBay situation:

Currently bidding on and hoping not to lose to last-minute poachers (cowards, all of you!):
 

Super cute vintage romper, currently $6.50.

I lost these shoes at the last minute (they would have cost me $10 + $7 postage:

 So I took revenge by spending slightly more money and buying these outright ($29.99 + $11.00 postage):

Still waiting for my clogs in the mail, but they are coming from China so I am trying my best to be patient.

In the meantime...

Just bought these babies off eBay for $40 (free postage). I got them in black but a less sensible version of me would have bought the gold.
Seems everyone is doing Jeffrey Campbell rip-offs at the moment, which is great because I can't afford the real ones. Rubi are selling Lita knock-offs which (devestatingly) did not fit me, so when in doubt, I turn to eBay. And, voila!

 

eBay win

I finally won something on eBay! After many last-minute losses, which made me very sad, I will soon be the proud owner of these loverly boots:

I saw boots very similar to these at Globalize at the end of Winter last year, just before I went overseas. The pyramid stud has been around for a while and getting a bit...old...shall we say, but there's something about it I just can't go past. I'm all about the leather and studs and like to think I look like a bad-ass rebel chick each time I step out of the house, so these boots are perfect for me.
