Cynthia Vincent on the Cheap(ish)

I'd never given this much thought, but as I was going through my clothes the other day, I realized some of my favorite, most-worn, and longest-lasting pieces are from designer Cynthia Vincent (I've actually owned one of her black dresses so long that it's nearly gray now). Because I'm greedy, this revelation made me want more clothes from CV, which, of course led me to eBay. I came across four stunning items: This silk leopard-print top (perfect under a blazer); this funny little bird blouse, which would be excellent right now with a long cardigan and trousers; these gold shoes, which basically yell out "holiday party"; and a perfectly elegant, very Julie-Christie-in-Don't Look Nowcape coat.

Make sure you get the real deal when buying designer on eBay with these quick tips.
