Finally upgraded my trusty leopard loafers that I’ve over-worn, which persuaded me that the cost per wear would make these CL beauties a justified investment. I wore these shoes on my birthday in this post.
These loafers have been sold out for years, so here are my strategies for hunting down elusive items:
- Set alerts with search parameters on luxury consignment websites like eBay, Vaunte, Shop Hers, LXR & Co., and Vestiaire Collective. Then, you’ll get an email of items filtered by your desired size, style, and condition.
- Look for key words in sales on Gilt, Ideeli, Rue La La, My Habit, and Hautelook. Google promo codes from Retail Me Not before you purchase.
- Shop discounted past seasons on Yoox, Barneys Warehouse, Last Call by Neiman Marcus, Bluefly, and Outnet. They frequently have sample and additional sales.
Shop similar items from this post:
My last amazing bargain find was found at Crossroads Trading Co. on the 50% off rack. A 100% silk Joie patterned blouse for $10. With the tags still attached. Love these loafers, btw!
Oh my god those shoes are amazing! And I love your blog I am so glad you commented on mine I have now discovered yours 🙂

Thank you for this Carolyn! And great find. Leopard is a killer staple that I don't yet have. Why?

Awesome loafers! I haven't really tried to by anything that's off the market yet. I would love to score the Celine gold and black oxfords. Maybe I'll give your tips a try. 🙂
