Nicky Hilton

Ahhh, this one’s an oldie but goodie. Christian Louboutin‘s Very Privé studded pumps were all the rage among celebs back when I started this blog (can you believe it’s been almost 3 years already?). I really wanted to do a Real vs. Steal-feature on this shoe style but just couldn’t find a suitable alternative at that time. Fast-forward to 2011 and a decent yet budget-friendly Loubie look-a-like has finally popped up…

Twisted Kam-12 Studded Peep-toe Pumps

… No red sole, the platform is significantly lower and the studs aren’t quite as spikey, but for a $40 shoe this pump by Twisted comes pretty close to the Louboutin original. What do you think? Hit or miss?

Darling Nicky, how beautiful you look in your leopard print dress! It’s usually your older sibling being the wild one. But this time, it’s you stealing the spotlight on the red carpet – making all the paparazzi roar! It’s a jungle out there and my, my, my, how you’ve managed to wear this entire look, very well. Completed by these simple black accessories: black platforms, black liquid eyeliner (my secret beauty trick since high school), a fab black clutch and, oh what the hell, throw in a statement cocktail ring and your work (and mine) here – is done!

I don’t know about you guys but I have been enamored with the Chloé Paddington satchel ever since it emerged on the scene 5 years ago. I wasn’t the only one, though, this bag was an instantaneous hit. Along with some sister “It” bags (the Fendi Spy bag and the Marc Jacobs Stam, both of which we’ve covered here on InTheirCloset) the Paddington began to show up everywhere on the arms of fashionable celebrities. I think it was (and continues to be) so popular because of its perfect slouchy shape, roomy interior, and of course that to-die-for hardware. Sadly the Paddington has always been out of my price-range and, due to its popularity, there is really no hope of it ever going on sale.

Baghaus “Madeleine” Padlock Tote

Now granted I don’t have this bag in my hand right now, but just looking at the picture I can tell that Baghaus really knocked it out of the park with their “Madeleine” tote. How soft and slouchy does it look? The longer shoulder handle is missing but otherwise this bag looks pretty darn picture-perfect. Available in a multitude of colors (black, brown, beige, bronze, blue, white and pewter), this bag is guaranteed to get you tons of compliments. Personally, I’m loving the beige and brown.

Real vs. Steal – Brian Atwood Lola Pumps

by Vahni on February 9, 2010

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.

Seeing something as functional as a zipper being used for decorative purposes always makes me wonder what the inventor would say to this trend? Studding and zipping everything has become so omnipresent that I easily forget those elements were originally not intended to be used as decoration. Luckily those times are long gone because otherwise we wouldn’t be able to lust after these gorgeous zip sandals by Christian Louboutin. And wouldn’t this be a pity?
