Forever 21 has many collections - Twist and Intimates, to name a couple - but none that are vintage-inspired . . . until now. Boutique by Forever 21 is all about that antique touch - elaborate embellishments, soft feathers, and dazzling sequins. Plus, with higher quality fabrics, it all looks authentically secondhand. The new line hasn't hit the racks just yet, but here's a sneak peek to woo you.

If you require gloves but hate not being able to type on your iPhone while wearing them, fingerless gloves are a happy medium. These Crochet Knit Purple Fingerless Gloves are super cool, no? I dig the rich color and the way they scrunch.

If you do too, buy them now for $6.99; there are three available and they also come in gray, black, and white. The auction ends Tuesday, Nov. 17. Good luck!

Am I seeing correctly? This gorgeous Vintage Gray Suede Jacket, size small, is only $15? I'm so tempted to bid on it but I have way more jackets than I can keep up with. I can't stop staring at the soft suede and the slightly poufy shoulders. And yes, I used PicClick to find it!

The current bidding price is $14.99 and the auction ends on Wednesday, Nov. 11. Good luck and happy bidding!

Congrats to FashionSheSays!

You must have noticed the tweed rage these days. Everyone is wearing it in some form. I loved Olivia Palermo's tweed H&M shorts so much, I got the matching jacket recently. While most tweed jackets are cropped, this Vintage Gray Stone Tweed Coat, size small, is equally chic. It looks good open and closed, and the black piping and big buttons are super cute. Especially if you live in cold climate, I suggest bundling up with this tweed-tastic piece.

The current bidding price is $10.99 and the auction ends on Thursday, October 22. Good luck and happy bidding!

The eBay Way to Tackle Fall

EBay and I are constant companions. She has been my go-to for awesomely unique vintage finds for years now. I have to admit though, she's not easy. Finding that one-of-a-kind piece always takes research and patience. I did some heavy duty searching and found an arsenal of amazing pieces to keep you fresh this Fall. Fingerless gloves, a cool slouchy beanie, and a faux fur vest are all on the menu. Tackle time.

All these extravagant red carpet affairs have me dreaming about fancy accessories. Wouldn't this Vintage Black Mesh Chain Purse look amazing on the arm of vintage-loving Zooey Deschanel or Rachel Bilson? I like that it's antique and modern at the same time. You can wear it as a shoulder bag, a clutch, or crossbody - it looks good all ways.

The current bidding price is $9.95 and the auction ends on Tuesday, Sept. 22. Good luck and happy bidding!

Blake Lively's cobalt dress got me dreaming about cobalt jewelry. I thought, how amazing would it look to pair an understated LBD with a bright cobalt necklace? So I set out on a search and discovered this treasure: Vintage Cobalt Glass Dangle Necklace. As you know, vintage modern jewels are hot right now, and this definitely fits into that category.

Now that we've differentiated between Winter and Summer plaid, let's dig in. This Vintage Plaid Full-Skirted Dress, size xs/s, has fun written all over it. I love the color palette, as well as the girlie skirt. Now imagine how much cuter it would be paired with a cool tan belt and gold baubles. In a few months, throw on black leggings for Fall/Winter wearability.

The current bidding price is $9.99, and the auction ends on Thursday, August 20. Good luck and happy bidding!

Mixed metals are all the rage these days and these gold and silver studded boots, size 6.5, further prove it. What draws me to them is the juxtaposition between the cowboy-style boot and the punky studs. Two dissimilar worlds fusing harmoniously - fabulous. Plus, they look super comfortable and would look darling with a femme floral dress.

The current bidding price is $24.99 and the auction ends on Wednesday, Aug. 12. Good luck and happy bidding!
