eBay WTF of the Day: Bad jean jacket #3

Filed under: Clothing

Ach! Too! Busy! Cripes! Eyes! Burning!

Be careful with denim, people. This is an example of where a simple crime against denim could lead to total outfit mayhem. We don't care what you're wearing under that jacket; we take one look at it and we're having a seizure on the floor.

This jean jacket from Josephs-colours-sells on eBay is a Coldwater Creek from the underacknowledged realm of "trying to look like your mother and doing it wrong."

eBay WTF of the Day: Bad jean jacket #2

Filed under: Clothing

WTF? This is so obviously wrong.

It's like this. The jacket was too long so they decided to cut it. Then, while they got ready to cut it, they had seven martinis and decided it would be really funny if they just cut some of it off. We can just see this being a good idea at like, 3am:

"Yeah, you know...like coattails...but on the sides...of this denim jacket...with three quarter sleeves and an awkward, sideways belly-flap."

But that idea should have been trumped in the morning.

eBay WTF of the Day: Bad jean jacket #1

Filed under: Clothing

Totally unjustifiable.
It must be fall. Get out your bad jean jackets.

Here, on sale from Cerry5354, we have a green satin disaster. This is like a castoff from that scene in Return to Oz when Dorothy had to touch everything that was green to bring Oz back to life or something, I don't know, I was only half watching by that point because that Rock dude really freaked my shiz out. And the flying moose box. WTF, moose box? Anyway, all the stuff that was green in that scene was like, really awkwardly and sort of aggressively green. Like this jacket.

Also, can we take a moment to appreciate the fact that Dorothy was played by Fairuza Balk? Thanks.

eBay WTF of the Day: Padding for all eight of your breasts

Filed under: Accessories, Swimwear and Lingerie, Flatter Your Figure, Style Lies

We call this Seriously? It's like a display of shoulder pads for Russian nesting dolls.

This set of pads to make your breasts look bigger (both in swimwear and bras!) is weird. There's something about the hot pink background, too. Very modern art. Very...teeth. Or unpainted fake nails. Or thirds of porcelain teacups. Or something.

Breast padding? Well, it's certainly not the first thing that comes to mind. Still, the listing says: "Make you a cup size Bigger Bra Pads."

Do they work? Probably. Will it look natural? Maybe. Will it feel weird? Definitely. WTF? Hook us up with some socks. This is America.

eBay WTF of the Day: Give me four bucks for whatever this is.

Filed under: Handbags, Accessories

Weird."Weird little cheap handbag" is the title of this eBay listing by Solsticedreamer.

We don't really know what to say here. It's sort of unremarkable, yes, but the title is so aggressively blase...it kind of cracks us up.

Here's what Solticedreamer has to say about the "weird little cheap handbag:"

"Looks hand made, maybe out of bubble gun wrapers? I mean it has a funny shiny look."

eBay WTF of the Day: En garde, shoe!!

Filed under: Haute Home, Accessories, Shoes

En garde, shoe!!
Hello! My name is Manolo Blahnik! You killed my father! Prepare to die!

We freaking love it. It's a shoe horn sword.

Dforceit is selling this terrific shoe horn for $9.99, and it ships from "Wild & Wonderful West Virginia." We have a feeling we would like Dforceit very much.

Some other things Dforceit has for sale:

eBay WTF of the Day: MAJOR TRENDS vest

Filed under: Clothing

I hail from the planet Zaag. Really? We're gonna have to call a WTF all over this zippered vest.

First of all, seller Goodbuybarry has listed this item as "UNUSUAL METAL MASK! Black & Brown WOOL Vest SZ XL." Really? Is the metal mask what sets it apart? We think the most distinctive thing about this vest is that it looks exactly like a Star Trek uniform.

And the mask? Just makes it look more like a Star Trek uniform. Okay, not exactly-exactly. This will have to be deemed a uniform for someone from a planet we just made up called Zaag.

eBay WTF of the Day: Another armadillo purse

Filed under: Handbags, Accessories

Neatly buckled armadilloWTF? Suddenly, we keep running into armadillo purses on eBay. This one is made from actual armadillo, look.

Making_ends_meet_2008's armadillo bag really met its end, unlike our last armadillo purse.

We don't know whether it's better to have an armadillo-shaped armadillo bag or a football-shaped armadillo bag. We just don't know. Is it weird to make a purse out of a texas pest?

eBay WTF of the Day: More ludicrous pants

Filed under: Clothing

Circles and squares carefully arranged to cause seizuresRemember these ludicrous pants?

Well, here at right, we have another pair. These pants are made of insanity.

Why are people making pants out of insanity? When do you wear these? Do you just wake up some mornings and go "you know...I think it's crazy pants day!" Is that a joyful occasion, or one of fear?

Click here to see the listing. Seller Eastorlandoauctions keeps it simple: "Be casual and look fabulous!"

eBay WTF of the Day: Lilac leather loo roll

Filed under: Clothing

Leather: UR DOIN IT RONGSo, this is weird. It's sort of...Star Trek for your mother, in lavender leather. Lilac leather. Leather of an unusual color. Rsoaks wants you to have this "Unusual stylin' Lilac Leather Jacket" because it is too big for her.

This is our favorite quote from the listing:
"Note: When I purchased this, it was from a home where there was smoking. I can't really smell it anymore."

Great. Thanks for the non-committal warning/reassurance/warning (?).

The weirdest thing about this is that it 100% shapeless. No waist, no collar really; it's more like a convenient opening so that you can see. If you zippered it all the way up, we imagine you'd look cylindrical, like a lavender toilet paper roll with arms. Made of leather.

That's a weird look, guys. WTF?

eBay WTF of the Day: Jacket skeleton

Filed under: Clothing

It's missing something.This is the jacket that haunts you in the middle of the night.

Boasting "black leather" and "detachable sleeves," this is the ghost of the black leather jacket you threw away. It is coming back to haunt you.

"I bought this jacket in the 80's for $250.00," boasts seller design1943.

eBay WTF of the Day: Angelina Jolie doll gives us the creeps!

Filed under: Celebrities with Style

Girl Interrupted?
Holy Jolie. This is the creepiest look-alike doll we've ever seen. Artist Noel Cruz stripped the factory makeup off a regular doll and painted it to look exactly, exactly like Angelina Jolie.

The clothes cost extra. The clothes cost extra!

The doll went for £2,000 to a private bidder. (Surprse, surprise.)

WTF?

eBay WTF of the Day: Anachrontastic parachuting corset

Filed under: Accessories, Clothing, Swimwear and Lingerie

Anachrontastic!WTF? Look at this thing. The other side laces up. It's a parachuting corset.

Anachrontastic!

Everything here has two meanings. Even the seller's name, Freakatchoo: "Freak at you" or "freak" and then a sneeze. Yes?

More about the corset:
