SOLD Red Marni Woven Belt








Congrats Angelina!


This is the final listing for this belt.

I bought this great authentic belt from a trusted Marni reseller on a well-known auction site, but I've only worn it once. Due to my recent weight gain, it no longer fits. Since I don't think it'll fit any time soon, it's up for grabs.

measurements: length- 29", width- 1 1/4"

details: I'm sorry, I have no idea what the material content of the belt is, and the original tags are long gone. The buckle appears to be either plastic or enamel.
condition: like new

paid: who knows? I bought it several years ago

price: $50 + $10 shipping/handling to Canada, $15 to the US. I will ship the belt in the original Marni Dust Bag.

Paypal only please.

Listing end date: April 1st, 2010

[SOLD] Rachel Comey Marcy Clog Sandal (Beige) Size 7






It is with an exceedingly heavy heart that I part with these Rachel Comey beauties. Although I love them, they are too big for me... Super-soft leather, wood sole (but surprisingly lightweight!) and very, very well-made. They are perfect for spring (or now, if you have nice weather), especially with the huge clog trend that's going around. They've only been worn gently once or twice, and are basically perfect except for some faint marks from where my feet were (but you won't see them when they're being worn anyways).

Sizing-wise, they seem to run true to size or a little large, which I think is normal for Rachel Comey. I normally wear size 6.5 consistently, and these were big enough to be uncomfortable. They have a 4" heel with a 1" platform, very comfy, height-wise. Sadly, I don't have the original box, but I can ship in another shoebox if preferred.

Paid: Around $350+tax

Asking: $165 + $10 shipping, $15 shipping if you'd like them in a box.

March 11.

[SOLD] mike & chris kaden wrap dress size medium

 

a cute wrap dress in military green made by mike & chris. it's from their holiday 2008 collection. it's been worn once by me & (sadly) it does not fit me now. the dress wraps around itself and is fastened by a fishhook clasp (see below). also there is a very slight color fading, but it is where the cloth wraps and is not visible when you wear it. it's really not a problem but since it is a "fading" I thought to mention it.

armpit to armpit: 19.5"-20"
length: 37"-38" (measured hanging)

it was retailed around $300. I bought it for $150. 
sale price: $60 + $5 shipping
listing ends 3/10

Orange Mociun Mask Tee




I first encountered Mociun on my honeymoon and have been hooked ever since. At the end of each season I stock up on her amazing t-shirts. This Orange Mask tee is from my latest order and was just literally removed from the wrapper and tried on once. I was a little ambitious in the sizing and find it to be a touch tight so I'm letting it go (lest I be thought of as a Mociun hoarder). It's perfect for the upcoming spring.

Materials: 100% organic cotton
Style Description: short-sleeved t-shirt. Perfect with some jeans and a cardi or jacket
Measurements:
bust: 16 inches. Please note that this is the scoop-neck version of this t-shirt not the crew-neck (which tend to run large) This t-shirt is true to size.
Condition: Brand New

Paid: $15.20 on sale
Asking: $25, which includes shipping to Canada & USA. Paypal only
Listing end date: March 31st

Paid: $160

Bought these
2 years ago while lusting after the Chloe oxfords, but have worn them only a couple of times. Sadly, I realized I'm not a heel person (or at least not a 4" inch heel person) though they are pretty good knockoffs. They do show some wear and tear, however, from city-walking. Hope these can find a better home outside of my closet!

Lauren Moffatt for Urban Outfitters "Hudson" boot, size 9.5






Low boots with cutout details and studs by Lauren Moffatt for Urban Outfitters in a special collaboration. Style is "Hudson." 100% leather. Size 9.5. I'm about a 9.5/10 and this fits. If you're either size, it will work. If you're on the 10 size, it's a little roomier in the toe box due to the pointier tip. Looks really great with leggings, but note that if you wear socks, you can see them due to the cutout, so if you don't want that, just wear dark socks or go barefoot (in warmer weather of course). Worn once.

Why I'm selling: Much as I love the studs and details, I'm a little stumped on making this work for my own everyday, work wardrobe. Please take advantage :)

Price:
Retailed for over $180 at Urban Outfitters. Bought new. Yours for $80 + $5 shipping (if in the U.S.). PayPal preferred.

Listing ends: March 7.

Patent Boots by Goldenbleu size 40/9.5






Super hot, black patent wedge boots by Goldenbleu. Size 40/9.5. Wore these three times but never got the mileage I expected to and they were just a smidge too small. Bought new. Style name is Waverly Wedge Calf Mid-Boot. You can still see the boot here, albeit is in a non-patent, for reference and to get the level of detail.

About the brand: Goldenbleu was an independent company based in San Francisco that made beautiful shoes and bags and were written up everywhere for their quality and style. Unfortunately they went out of business last year.

Details:
* Leather upper * Wood sole * Shaft height measures approximately 9" from arch * Boot opening measures approximately 12" around * Heel measures approximately 3 1/4" * Made in Italy * 6 buttons up each back for a punk/Victorian kind of feel

Price: Originally retailed for $773.95; too ashamed to say what I paid for it but I will say not full price. Yours for $100 plus shipping if in the U.S.

Listing ends: March 9. Please leave your e-mail address in the comments; PayPal accepted.

[RELIST] TOM FORD Black Round Sunglasses



Quick shot of what they look like on me:


I'm selling my pair of amazing big round black sunglasses from Tom Ford.. I loved these so much, bought them on sale for around $215 at Aloha Rag (originally $360) and wore them for one summer before putting them away. There is one minor scratch on the back of either lens where the arm hits the lens when folded, but otherwise they are in great condition. They come with the original case and box.


Asking $80 $75 plus shipping. Listing will last for a week, with exceptions below...

After contacting every single person who left their email address on my last post and hearing back from no one, these are back on the market! Please email me directly at onthedoppel (at) gmail.com with your interest! If any previous commenters would like to claim the sunglasses all you have to do is email me back.
