eBay can be a tricky beast (yes, yes, even members of the madison team were sucked in by the fake Chloe handbags at one stage). But every so often you stumble across a store or a seller who uses the world-famous auction platform as a catwalk, showcasing some seriously sexy finds. This week, we’re loving Cops In Jeans, a vintage emporium with stock sourced by Sydneysider Lucy McNamara. She scrabbles for her finds from pretty much everywhere (“that’s the fun bit!” she says) and is about to launch a spring/summer blitz – so sign up for her newsletter so you can Windows shop as soon it comes in.
Flared jeans! Flared jeans! The day we stop loving flared jeans is the day we stop loving jeans, full stop. It’s so never going to happen. These unworn vintage Lee’s are so seventies and sexy and summer and – buy them! Buy them before we do! Buy-it-now price $199.00
Denim and plaid and everything rad. A denim waistcoat is such an easy item that can rock up pretty much any outfit – but you don’t want to spend a fortune on it, nor do you want something too new and tacky. Vintage will always have cred, and this piece is no exception. Currently sitting at $17.00 plus postage.
What do you get when you cross girly flowers and mannish tuxedo shapes? No, not Boy George. You get this adorable 80s-style mini dress. At $14.50 (currently, plus postage) it’ll be a sweet shot to your summer wardrobe.
