So I think this is the first time, after more than 3 years of writing this blog, that I feature a sneaker here on In Their Closet. Of course, it couldn’t be just any ordinary sneaker for this occasion, no, it had to be a “fashion sneaker” naturally, the most popular one being the “Bekket” velcro sneaker by Madame Isabel Marant at this time. Personally, I both like and hate them; I’ve never been too fond of sporty looking shoes, but these exude that cool kid vibe and how clever is the hidden built-in wedge? Genius.

Ash “Cool” Suede Lace Up Wedge Sneakers
If you’re looking for Bekket coolness but for a budget price, try these suede sneakers by Ash. They do have a few differences, but overall share the same look and the hidden wedge. Available in black & white, taupe & white and pink & white (@Karmaloop).

If you consider yourself an avantgarde rebel of fashion or truly related to Sarah Jessica Parker’s cinematic twin Carrie Bradshaw, then these Nicholas Kirkwood sandals are for you. Although I’ll pass; these are a little too much (ok, way too much) for me in terms of both design and price. These… uhm, shall I say I-bet-they-have-a-wonderful personality heels (wink, wink) go for roughly $1.200! But have no fear you rebel without a cause and/or those without a lot of cash, we’ve done our homework and found an awesomely priced alternative!

Life is funny sometimes. A few days ago one of our readers, Corrine, mailed us and asked whether we were able to identify a pair of nude open-toe pumps Miranda Kerr was wearing to an event recently.
As a shoe addict, this was not a difficult task and I instantly recognized the stitched pumps which were Miu Miu. The nude version was already sold out everywhere, so I tried to find some good alternatives for Corrine, but no real luck. That was until yesterday when I found the perfect pair of knockoffs for the black patent version.

Victoria Beckham was the first to sport the cute Miu Miu peep-toes back in March. The lovely Drew Barrymore wore the slingback version in red to Live with Regis and Kelly and Victoria’s Secret angel Miranda Kerr is wearing her nude Miu Mius to almost every public event she attends at the moment.

BCBGeneration “Doriel” Stitched Pumps
Look at these Miu Miu knockoffs by BCBGeneration. Don’t they look almost identical? I accidentally stumbled upon these yesterday when I was randomly browsing the web for something totally different. So glad I found these. They look amazing for knockoffs and they even have the stitching on the heel which I LOVED about the Miu Mius.
Other color options include black, grey, plum and taupe suede at some retailers and at $110/pair they will save you quite a bunch of cash, too! Yay!

After hitting the digital shelves of NET-A-PORTER
a few months back for a price of 500 €, these Burberry Prorsum ruched platform pumps went like hot cakes and now are completely sold out.
Miranda Kerr vs. Kate Bosworth – Burberry Prorsum Ruched Platform Pumps
Miranda Kerr and Kate Bosworth apparently share not only the same taste in men (Orlando Bloom), but also in footwear (Burberry Prorsum). Both women donned these ruched platform peep-toes being completely decked out in Burberry.
Miranda was the first to wear these eggplant-hued heels to the GQ Man of the Year Awards 2008 in September 2008.
Kate rocked the same heels in a gold feathered Fall 2008 ensemble when she attended Fashion Group International’s 25th Annual Night of Stars one month later in October.
Seems like Miranda and Kate weren’t the only ones falling for the ruched Burberry platforms. Socialite and Reality-TV star Kim Kardashian also got her hands on the heels. She dressed them up with a one-shouldered fuchsia dress and kept it casual with leggings and oversized sunglasses.
