Ebay-tastic!

Have you ever gone into a little obscure shop, one that looked like it wouldn't have a single thing that appealed to you, but you did it anyway?

Sometimes these little boutiques/ shops really are what they seem to be, but other times you find something fabulous that you have to have.

For me, that's what its like shopping on Ebay. If you know what you're looking for, you'll be just fine. But if you're just searching for something new, you're going to have to dig. I actually found my favorite pair of shoes on Ebay.

They're not really available anymore so I can't find a picture as an example, but they're beautiful black platform slingback heels. The top of the shoe has faux ruched leather that comes to a slight point. They were $30 and that included shipping. I honestly get compliments on them all the time - strangers have even stopped me to ask where I got them.

Anyway, if you know what you want, you can find them easily. Go ahead, type in the search box "Christian Louboutin shoes," or "Jessica Simpson shoes," and you won't be disappointed. (With the Louboutin's - I mostly just stare. I couldn't purchase even if I wanted to.)

If you go onto Ebay and search for "Naughty Monkey," you'll likely pull up beauties like these:


Ones that make you picture outfits like a work suit with these babies for a pop of color. Or maybe you can put them with a little black dress. I love the houndstooth.

But sometimes you go on there just looking for something new. The lovely part is that you can narrow down your search easily by style, color, size, etc.

I happened to search for wedges. And I found these fun shoes:



Then I looked for some platforms and thought these were just adorable:



But then you also find something like this:



For which there are no words. Just....no words.


Also: please visit the plethora of hooker shoes if you're in a fanciful mood.



One thing's for sure: Ebay is always good for some quality shoe entertainment.
