This berry-colored tulip dress by Alice + Olivia received a lot of celebrity love in the last few months and while I agree that it’s a nice dress, I really don’t think it justifies the heavy price tag (even not the 30% OFF sale price) if you consider how much of a simple dress it is.

Alloy Chiffon Tulip Dress
If you covet the dress above, but don’t want to spend that much as well, Alloy has a great alternative for a lot less. The downside? It’s available in black only.

Faith “Liddle” Peep-toe Sandals
UPDATE (10/31/2009): Just stumbled upon these “Orlan” inspired t-strap sandals by Faith UK and had to include them for our UK/European readers. They even have the signature red sole. Yay! Available in black and purple suede.

Nine West “Palomino” Sandals
If you are looking for the same style without the hefty price tag, these t-strap peep-toes by Nine West are a great alternative if you want Louboutin 4 less. The heel on these is not as high and they don’t have the double platform, but the overall look of these shoes is almost identical compared to the real deal. They retail for $89 which is quite affordable and come in a multitude of colors including black, brown and purple suede as well as black and brown leather.

A few weeks ago High School Musical star Ashley Tisdale was spotted out and about in LA looking all business in a black Free People shift dress which she accessorized with her lustworthy Alexander Wang Coco Duffel bag, oversized black Chanel sunglasses and nude Louboutin peep-toes. I love this look and would don a one to one copy to wear around the office!

Last year at the 60th Primetime Emmy Awards Eva Longoria stunned on the red carpet in a gorgeous fringed mini dress by Marchesa. You gotta love Marchesa’s attention to detail: just look at the intricately bead-embroidered bow! I adore this dress, but am not anywhere near at being able to afford a $6.000 dress.

Marchesa Ombré Fringed Dress
Well, I might not have a knockoff of this dress at hand, but the awesome guys at theOutnet.com managed to get this dress at the most amazing price. Believe it or not, but they are selling it for 75% OFF! Now I am well aware that even the highly discounted price is by standard means still very pricey, but I just had to feature this amazing deal (and more Marchesa deals will follow shortly…) for all those fashionistas with bigger shopping budgets (you lucky gals!) who love a great deal and are looking for an extravagant little something to wear to special occasion (a wedding maybe?).

These sandals by Sergio Rossi are certainly chic and all, but to be honest, I wouldn’t shell out $670 for them even if I had that kind of shopping budget. Would you? If for some reason however I would stumble upon a great inspired-by pair, then why not?
Sergio Rossi “Narrow” Zip Sandals
($670, SOLD OUT)
P.S.: Available in blue and khaki at Zappos
for discounted $314.

Nine West “Maxeeme” Sandals
If you’re like me and cringe at the thought of spending so much on a pair of shoes, Nine West has a great alternative. Their Sergio Rossi knockoffs are spot-on and the only noticeable difference is the heel which is straight on the Nine West sandals. They retail for budget-friendly $68.95 and also come in dark red & dark blue.

BCBGeneration “Levona” Sandals
If you’re willing to spend a few extra bucks to get a little closer to the Sergio Rossi sandals, these zip sandals by BCBGeneration are also a great look 4 less alternative which will cost you less than 1/7 of the originals price. However, Zappos has only very limited stock on these, so you better be quick to order.
