Target gets into some nice over-the-knee boot action for $50

Target gets into the over-the-knee boot action this season with this intriguing pair of Xhilaration boots for $49.99, on sale this week for $42.49.  Unfortunately, they're only available online as I'd really like to see these in person or at least on a model.

Kudos to the copywriter:
Long, lean and super sexy, the Xhilaration Women's Nate Over the Knee Boots are going to make you a true standout in a crowd. More than just over the knee, these thigh high womens boots really take it to that next level. The unembellished, simple black boot is extremely slimming and it leads the pack of todays hottest trends. This is the look you want to adopt and make your own before someone else beats you to it. You're going to look amazing.

They're getting good reviews and they look like a decent boot for the price and the style.  However, I found it interesting that "Tall gal shopper" actually thinks these are leather!

The style reminds me of the Jeffrey Campbell "Militant" boots ($99.99), and considering those are not real leather either, the Target boots are a much better deal.  The matte material on the Target boots also makes them look more like real leather than the Jeffrey Campbell boots.

Both pairs appear to be based on the no-longer-in-production Stuart Weitzman "Hilo" OTK boots, which I own and are my favorite low-heeled boots.  Although I'd never pay the original retail price of $650, these appear occasionally on eBay.

Diane von Furstenberg leather opera gloves for $101 at TheRealReal

It's good that these Diane von Furstenberg long black leather opera gloves on TheRealReal.com were way too small at a size 6.5 because I would have snapped them up.  They were priced at $125 and with the site's current 20% off promotion, would have been a deal at $101 plus shipping.

These gloves feature very simple, classic styling with only a small gold-tone logo stud at the opening for detail.  They're an impressive 21.5" long and silk-lined.  Even better, the condition was listed as "Pristine, with tags."

As they were already sold when I searched for "gloves" on the site, someone else knew a good deal when they saw one!

Kenneth Cole has my favorite boots on sale!

The Kenneth Cole online outlet has some of my favorite boots on sale.  I've been watching the "Bon Bon" style for awhile now as I think it's the perfect black leather dress boot - sexy stiletto heels, trendy rear zipper, and nicely pointed toes.  The only thing that has been holding me back was the $350 price tag.

Well, as part of its Presidents' Day online outlet sale, these boots are now a deal at $79.99.  Shipping is a little pricey at $15, so pad your order with something small (I recommend one of Kenneth Cole's nice wallets) as shipping is free for orders over $100.

On my way back to the site to place my order now!

EXPIRED DEAL: Lauren Urstadt black leather opera gloves for $99 on Gilt

I'm bummed that I missed the sale on these Lauren Urstadt black leather opera gloves on Gilt. I definitely would have snapped up a pair for $99.




These appear to be very well-made and the perfect length for wearing extended past the elbow or scrunched below the elbow. The elastic at the wrist is also a nice touch.




Very nicely modeled, by the way! They really rock the look of the "little black dress!"

Some very nice Robert Rodriguez leather pants at Amazon.com

I am in serious lust with these Robert Rodriguez skinny leather jeans, from Amazon.com of all places! Even more tempting is that there is one pair left, and they're my size. Somehow, I can't part with the $219.60 Amazon wants for them, even though they were originally $595.00. I think it's that $200 price point, as at $150-$175, I'm pretty sure I would snap them up.

They look great modeled with pumps and I can envision wearing them with strappy sandals and tucked into boots as well.
