Black Halo is not the most creative brand when it comes to innovative design. All they seem to do every season is to either change the hemline, color or fabric on their best selling dresses and voilà a new collection is born. Their formula works however! Good thing their collection consists of classic, timeless designs, so lack of creativity is subsidiary and hence can be forgiven.

LuLu’s Jane Siegel Dress
Try this Black Halo knockoff by LuLu*s if you are looking for a similar dress. As you can see it’s almost a 1:1 copy and the price is just awesome at $33 (this is less than 1/10 of the original’s price). Not too shabby for a knockoff, right? This dress could be one of your key items this fall and you can either dress it up or tone it down with a few simple accessories.

I wouldn’t call Fendi one of my favorite designer brands, but when I saw these adorable white wedge sandals arriving at NET-A-PORTER
a few months ago, I knew it was love at first sight.

Fendi Metallic Suede Wedge Sandals
($840, SOLD OUT)
Shiekh Audrina-09 Wedge Sandals
These “Audrina-09″ wedge sandals by Shiekh are obviously inspired by the Fendi wedges above though these miss the metallic inlay on the wooden style wedge. However, they are still a great alternative if you are looking for a similar style and they also happen to be discounted right now. Other color options include black and brown (my personal favorite).

Finding a good pair of jeans is one of the toughest quests I have ever been confronted with as a shopper. It’s so hard to find a jeans that you feel comfortable in AND which looks good on you. At least for me. I always restrain from buying jeans online, but these Balmain biker jeans would be clearly an exception if they weren’t out of my budget.

Balmain Biker Zip Jeans
($1.887, MyTheresa)
Bebe Zipper Moto Skinny Jean
UPDATE (08/28/2009): Found another Balmain skinny jeans knockoff by Bebe.

Bebe Zipper Moto Skinny Jean
($99, Bebe)
Bebe Stitched Knee Skinny Jean
Bebe was once again heavily inspired by Balmain. This jeans is not a knockoff per sé because the stitching on the knees differs slightly and the zip detail is on the outside, but it’s obviously an attempt to recreate Balmain’s iconic rocker/biker jeans.
