{SOLD} NEW Lina Rennell Halter Swimsuit





*first photo courtesy of Beklina

This is a custom swimsuit by Lina Rennell in pink marble print, brand new with tags.  The cut is amazing--great paneling details on the sides, and the fact that shorts are attached adds comfort to the mix.  I love the retro style and think being comfortable in a swimsuit is a must.  Halter neck for adjustable fit in the top half of the suit.   Never been worn.  Perfect for the upcoming summer, or a spring time getaway to a warmer climate!

Note: the suit you'll be getting is pictured in photos 2-4 

Suit is a size L
Best for 8-10 or for someone who wants a roomier fit
Made of lycra with mesh lining.

Asking $50 with US shipping included.  PayPal only.  Contact nikoshkopa{at}gmail.com with questions or offers.  All offers will be considered.

Vintage Military Knickers *reduced*


Pair of vintage military knickers purchased during a drip to Minneapolis at a great little boutique.  They've sat in my closet for many months, so I think it's time to pass them on.  They would look great with tights in the winter/fall months.  100% wool, irrespective of buttons.  In great condition, though missing the little laces that were used to tie the hems closed, but this is easily replaceable.  Also missing the button on the left back pocket.  Front closures are complete and features front pockets.  A rare and funky find.

Waist 31"
Length 29.5"
Inseam 18"

Asking $40 with US shipping included.  PayPal only.

Awesome pair of slingback lace-up sandals by eco-friendly brand, Coclico.  Features very cool slit leather and ebony wood platform.  Feel free to switch up the laces for a pop of color!  Worn twice and in great shape, except for a spot of liquid on the top of the left shoe.  Not very noticeable, and may be able to be removed.  Style descriptor is "Chinera coat/Parma Ebony".  Wonderful neutral color that goes with pretty much everything.  Wear with tights in cooler weather, and bare feet in summer.  Very comfortable.  Will be shipped in original box.

Size 39 and best fits 8.5-9
Footbed is approximately 10.25" in length

Rachel Comey Chadwick, sz 8, EUC







I bought these from an Ebay seller who said she used them once – seems
to be an accurate description.  Never worn by me except to try on
inside the house.  No flaws detected on the shoes except slight
scratches on bottom.  Note – I “sanitized” the inside of the shoes
with Lysol (I usually do this when purchasing pre-owned shoes) and in
the process a couple of Lysol drips  “ran” onto the bottom of right
shoe leaving a long skinny “watermark” in two places at bottom of
shoes.  This does not affect the look or functionality of the shoes at
all but I thought I should mention – keep in mind that if the shoes
were worn on wet pavement, they would also incur the “watermarks”.
These are beautiful but I’ve decided they are a bit too high for me.
Asking $120 (includes shipping)
