eBay Ninja: Steve Madden Haviland Boots


Steve Madden Haviland Boots


A little known fact about me? I AM AN EBAY NINJA. No joke. I can bid with the best of 'em. Seriously, I can't even begin to tell you all about amazing deals that I've scored. Out of all of them, this may be my finest. I was in the market or a nice pair of affordable black leather over-the-knee boots. The key word there is affordable. I would love a pair of Stuart Weitzman 50/50s, but I don't have an extra $600 laying around. Finding over-the-knee boots has been a struggle since I have such skinny legs. A Google search led me to these.

These are from last season, so they were only available on ebay. The Ebay Gods were smiling down on me, because I easily found a pair in my size. And the starting bid was only $20!!!! They're real leather and retailed for about $150+!!! Eventually, I ended up winning them for $41!!! WIN!!!

Overall, I'm very happy with them.They were in near-perfect condition with only a couple scuff marks.The leather is nice and soft, and I love that they have a little 1 inch stacked heels. I'm tall, so they only come a little over my knees. They're super comfortable and I can wear them all day with ease. Though I read that these are great for skinny, lil' chicken legs like mine, they were still too big. They sag a bit when I just wear leggings or tights, but they're fantastic with skinny jeans tucked in. So happy I have these to get me through the winter months!

Thanks to my days as a fashion intern at Teen Vogue, I've mastered the art of running all around New York City wearing heels. These are the perfect boots for this season and I'm in love with the whole "girly hiking boot" trend. Hoping to find these under my Christmas tree!
