I don’t know if someone over at Fendi didn’t use spellcheck, but I totally desire these appropriately named Desir Silk & Suede Sandal Boots. My God, they’re gorgeous! But I’ve checked my budget for the month (twice actually) and these babies priced @ $796 will not be accompanying me home. But we’ve done some checking and found a great alternative.

Martinez Valero “Oden” Platform Sandals

Uhm… who’s gonna look just as cute as Carey Mulligan (yep, she got my vote), but for about $600 less? You ol’ bargain shopper, you, that’s who! Señor Martinez Valero put some fire into his desire and created a very good copy just for you. No one else, just you – I promise. :-)
