Real vs. Steal – Yves Saint Laurent Baobab Python Wedge Sandals

Roseanne — Mon, 14 Nov 2011 14:00:27 +0000

The Yves Saint Laurent Baobab Python Wedge is a statement piece on its own as it can spice up any outfit. I adore the juxtaposition of the various colors; the olive and orange among the gray python creates a frivolous pattern adding more depth and texture to the overall appearance. Also, the sculpted heel is so artistic and fascinating to look at. These would make a great addition to my closet and perfectly coincide with my love of neutral toned clothing. But as much as I love YSL, I definitely cannot afford these amazing wedge sandals for $1.995. Take a look at the wonderful steal below!

Jeffrey Campbell “For Real” Strappy Platform Sandals

Though a different color pattern, these shoes are definitely hot! With the magenta color and metallic undertone, you are destined to capture all of the attention. The sculpted heel is still very apparent just like in the YSL; the only thing that’s really missing would be the python print and a bit more straps. Other than that, the Jeffrey Campbell “FOR REAL” platforms are an identical match for $134.95. This steal is a sartorial sensation.

Real vs. Steal – Prada Studded Medium Tote

Just in case you haven’t noticed, right now hardware is hot. Studs and spikes are showing up on everything from jackets, to gloves, to footwear, and more. The Prada Studded Medium Tote is the grown-up way to rock this trend and not look like a rocker wanna-be. Gold and sliver studs beautifully outline this supple black leather tote, which is roomy enough to serve as a chic work carryall. Available in black, forest or brown.

Real vs. Steal – Jimmy Choo Samoa Kid Sandals

Irina — Sun, 28 Feb 2010 13:00:22 +0000

Every woman needs a pair of black evening sandals in her closet. The universal and versatile, chic but not too distracting kind of pair. The caged Jimmy Choo sandals below are a great example of said sandals. They can be worn with almost everything in a woman’s wardrobe: the classic LBD, a pantsuit, jeans, leggings… you name it. What a lovely and flattering style, don’t you agree?

Real vs. Steal – Brian Atwood Lola Pumps

Vahni — Tue, 09 Feb 2010 13:00:15 +0000

I’ve got to admit that I’m a bit surprised by the incredible popularity of the Brian Atwood Lola Pump, because it is bold shoe, to say the least. Yet Lola, and the peep-toe version Wiked, have been photographed on almost a dozen celebrities. No wonder why it’s now sold out.

N.Y.L.A. “Bandit” T-Strap Pumps

If you had your eye on Brian Atwood’s no-longer-available Lola, the “Bandit” T-Strap Pump by N.Y.L.A. is an excellent alternative. And at $119.95, you can channel Katy’s femme fatale look or Megan’s rocker chic without an ounce of buyer’s remorse. Available in black leather or cheetah pony.
