A change of season means a change of style. It's the perfect time to update your wardrobe with the newest fall trends and freshen up your home with some cozy and cute finds. This year, it’s easier than ever to add a new spark to your everyday life, thanks to model and style icon Karlie Kloss and her most recent collaboration with eBay.
If you ever thought eBay was only for buying and selling secondhand pieces, Karlie’s new Unboxed collection is going to blow your mind. Using her knowledge as an eBay shopper herself (plus her amazing taste), Karlie has curated an assortment of home, tech, and fashion items, which are now available for purchase here. The collection includes items from famous designers like Nate Berkus and reliable brands like KitchenAid. You can preview many of Karlie’s picks in her eBay Unboxed video, below.
In the video, Karlie is prepping for a dinner party with friends and turns to eBay for help getting her apartment — and herself — party-ready. The video concludes with Karlie asking if she's forgotten anything, and fans can actually make suggestions via Twitter. You can share the tech, home, and fashion items you've been wanting this season by including the hashtags #eBayUnboxed and #Sweepstakes and by tagging @eBay in your suggestion Tweet. If that wasn't cool enough, Karlie and eBay will send 10 lucky participants the items they suggest, as a special thanks.
