Giuseppe Zanotti must be one of the most talked-about designers here on this blog (closely followed by Christian Louboutin and Christophe Decarnin for Balmain). I know you might be bored with this kind of brand overexposure and I am thoroughly sorry if you are, but I can’t help it. I just LOVE his shoes. I obsess over and dream about them. The steep price of a real Giuseppe Zanotti shoe however is nothing but a nightmare to me. Not everyone was born with a silver spoon in the mouth, Mr. Zanotti!

Have you already started shopping for fall already? Crazy how fast summer went by, huh? As much as I love summer and all the nice features attached to it (e.g. warm weather, beach days & floaty summer dresses) I am just as much looking forward to fall. I love autumn weather, cozying up in warm wool coats and looking très chic in suede boots. The Christian Louboutin boots below would be a great addition to my shoe closet, but paying more than 1k for shoes does not really fit in my budget.

Michael Antonio “Macey” Ankle Booties
These ankle booties by Michael Antonio instantly reminded me of the Louboutin ankle boots though the buckle on these does vary slightly. The shape and overall look however is clearly inspired by the Loubies. Best thing about these booties here is that they are very budget-friendly at $54.95 and they come in 5 different colors including black leather (shown below), black suede, red suede, grey suede (my favorite!) and tan suede. If you haven’t invested in a good pair of shoes suitable for autumn weather, you might consider buying these.

Rihanna has worn a multitude of fabulous things last week and I wanted to give you all a small update on her latest fab acquisitions. I loved her black Alexander McQueen killer zip up booties which she wore to Fred Segal on June 02, 2009. A few days before, Rihanna looked incredibly sexy in a one shouldered Alexander Wang LBD. On that same day Rihanna also sported a casual outfit by pairing a white Brian Reyes vest together with a blue MiH Jeans skinny jeans. Keep on going, RiRi!
