two-toned

I'm not sure what it is about the red shoes navy tips combo, but I like it. From above, a rare appearance of two-toned suede and wool Rachel Comey Barbaro boots in a size 9 (so tempting) -- I think her older shoes like these are a bit more adventurous/quirky -- with a starting price of $99, 1 bid and nearly two days left on eBay; and current season Dieppa Restrepo patent leather and leather oxfords at Creatures of Comfort for $209 (was $299. . . hopefully they'll drop further).

New Year, Old Leopard

Times change but my desire for a few key leopard pieces remains the same. Spotted on eBay are both the iconic Chloë Sevigny for Opening Ceremony angora cardigan I have posted about before, this time in a size large (in unisex sizing) with a starting bid of $99, zero bids, and three days left; and the Rachel Comey leopard-print silk skirt from seasons past in a size medium and a starting price of $50 with zero bids and less than a day left, or a buy-it-now option of $100. I also really like the knit blue leopard dress from Conifer, on sale for $187 (was $474).

Best Skirt

Someone buy this skirt! Rachel Comey silk and wool knee-length skirt in a brownish orange basket weave print for $40 on eBay with 1 bid and only 11 hours left. I have this same skirt in another color and it is awesome. Mine is a medium, so I think the small would work best for a size 2-4.

Top

I like this xs Rachel Comey top currently on eBay for $74.99 with no bids and nine days left (and a buy-it-now option of $95; I think originally $345) -- seems good for work or play. There's also a size large dress in a similar Rachel Comey print at TwentyThirtyForty.net for $213 (was $426).

Pink Clogs

Rachel Comey pink clog sandals on eBay with zero bids, a starting price of $29.99 and a buy-it-now option of $80.

Red Clogs

If you like red, clogs, Rachel Comey and are a size 8.5, you are in luck; these clogs are $90 (were $320) at Beklina. There's also a new pair on eBay right now in a size 8 in bone at $24.99 with 1 bid and 5 days left.

Two-Tone Dresses

On eBay. From above, Mociun silk and stretchy dress with the amazing topo print, size large (but seems to run small), at $45 with one bid and one day left; and Rachel Comey size small silk and wool dress at $40 with zero bids and one day left (and a buy it now for $85).

Sale on Sale at Beklina

Online eco-friendly boutique Beklina is offering an extra 30% off sale items with code a30saleonly. Apparently it will only run for a very short, undisclosed amount of time. I like this Julie Park tunic for $63 (plus shipping and possibly tax, though was $220); this Shabd silk scarf for $63 (was $145); and these Rachel Comey sandals, in size 8.5 only, for $126 (were $375). All photos from Beklina.

Rachel Comey Shoes

More tempting season-end sales: Rachel Comey Sir Barton red suede booties in a size 6 (I have these in nude, and they are the most comfortable boots ever) $163 (were $341) at Revolve with code TULIP; and navy slingbacks with gold heels in multiple sizes $125 (were $357) at Creatures of Comfort (whose sale also just got ratcheted up to 70%).

Sale at Bird

 

 The sale at great Brooklyn boutique Bird just went up to 75%. I like this silk and linen Rachel Comey top for $89 (was $370) and these TENOVERSIX black suede quilted booties for $129 (were $320). I'm sure it will all go fast.

Dress

Amazing patterned dress by Rachel Comey on eBay for $200 (probably originally around $500?) with zero bids and 4 days, 10 hours left.

Short Wedge Boots

From above: perfect black leather boots by hard-to-find Copenhagen-based (of course) shoe company D. Co, $235 (were $310) if you buy a $75 voucher worth $150 from Refinery29's Reserve by Christmas to use at CHARLIE & LEE before January 31, 2012; over-the-top Rachel Comey green suede boots with a navy heel for $306.60 at Gimme Shoes (were $438); and Minimarket woven checked leather boots at the Outnet for $184 (originally $460 -- and also in black and red leather for $199, down from $399, at Urban Outfitters). I can't decide if they'll look as good on as they do here. Thoughts?

Black Friday Goes Fast

I was contemplating buying these Rachel Comey patterned tie-up booties for $149.95 (were $518) from Anthropologie when I saw them on sale after midnight last night, not realizing they were actually $75 (!!! - extra 50% off all sale items until 11 am today, and 25% off until Sunday; note that discount is taken at register, so it will be another half off the initial price you see) but this morning they are gone (though these lace up sandals, not really my style, are still around and reduced from $358 to $49.98!!!). I guess you have to move fast with Black Friday sales. Check out a fairly comprehensive list of sales on Salebite, though it is missing 30% off sales at Dusen Dusen, Pour Porter and Tobi.

Boots

The first of what will surely be several posts this season about Rachel Comey boots on sale. I am seriously considering these marbled barbaro booties for $239 at Forward (originally $341), available only in a size 9. Code "Tulip" takes an extra 10% off, bringing the price to $215.10.

Back in the Saddle

I just got back home from a month of traveling and will resume aprovecharse henceforth. I also just bought these purple patent leather Rachel Comey penpal boots from the online store 11th Moon, which I only know about because of the great 50% off deal they have going now through the next week on Refinery 29's Reserve. You buy a coupon from Reserve and then apply it to anything on the site. Spend $75 and get $150 and so on -- these boots (originally $375) were $112.50 (though if I had bought the $150 coupon instead of the $75 one and bought something else too, they would have been $93.75).

Rachel Comey Dresses

My membership in the Rachel Comey fan club continues unabated. "Flippant" dress on sale for $178.50 (was $357) at Creatures of Comfort. Three more beautiful Rachel Comey dresses are even more marked down right now at Tobi, with an extra 10% off through today with code SUMMERSALE.

Rachel Comey Sale Roundup

Still pricey I know -- but speaking from Rachel Comey obsession experience -- you probably won't regret it.
