Before I go down the route of ebay with two designer items, I though I would offer here first. The beauty of this is I will post for free because I will be so grateful not to have to list the items.
The first item is a dress from Red Valentino it has only been worn once. It was used for a shoot and worn for all of 20 minutes as I made the model wear a dressing gown until right before the action moment. I'm an old fashioned stylist like that as I love to keep clothes pristine. For some reason I was given the dress and as I love Valentino I said yes knowing my fat hips wouldn't pass muster with the dress. I have admired it in my wardrobe for over 6 months and now need to move on!!
Red Valentino cocktail dress £105
Italian size 40, UK 8, US 4
Viscose, dry clean only

(price at new £480)
The next item is a pair of beautiful Tods shoes. Left behind after a shoot they have only been worn in doors although the leather sole is marked because the tape wasn't properly applied by an assistant. They are size 38.5 which is a size 5 or 5.5. I don't like to be imprecise but one persons 5 is another 5.5. I tried them on with very thick socks in the hope I could wear them as they as so classy but it didn't work!

Tods patent leather courts/heeled pumps £85
size 38.5, US 8

If you are interested in buying at the stated prices then please email me (as per details on blog).
Wish I didn't have big hips and was a size 5.5. Never mind!
ReplyDeleteOOh how gorgeous but prohibitavely small......I've never actually tried ebay it sort of scares me, I have many friends who buy and sell constantly but I feel it could easily become an addiction too far as I'm a sucker for a bargain. I am lucky enough to live within walking distance of an excellent second-hand designer label shop...mercifully it sticks to business hours!!
ReplyDeleteGorgeous items!
ReplyDeleteEspecially loving that dress!
Good luck with the sale!

I have never got my head round ebay, too much hassle and haggle! Lovely items on sale, too small for me sadly :( My new font is Cherry Cream Soda, I found it on the template designer. If you do a mood board, please do a post it would be great to see how you do one. xx
ReplyDeleteoh-oh-oh I LOVE the dress, but there's NO way it would fit me! I hope that it goes to a good home!
ReplyDeleteAnd the shoes are FAB. I hope you get loads of offers for them!

PS - thanks so much for the 'flush' that you suggested!
Sadly my boat-like-in-length feet would never fit into those lovely shoes. :( Hope they find someone to love them soon, they are delightful!
ReplyDeleteWhat gorgeous things! That dress is stunning. xxx
ReplyDeleteI'm too big all over for either of those beauties but I hope you find good homes for them.
ReplyDeleteBeautiful dress and shoes. I wish that I was your petite size!
ReplyDeletelovely items:)
ReplyDeleteLove your blog xx
ReplyDeleteThe dress is gorgeous, but I think it would end up in the same way in my closet as it did in yours- unused:( I really need to lose weight so I can start buying all these awesome clothes! UGH!
ReplyDeleteDear Kate, you don't have fat hips! xx
ReplyDeleteSize 40 italian IS NOT size 4. Trust me. It's a size 6/8.
