Sequins + X ( x meaning anything) = FABULOUS! I adore sequins! It’s such a girly fabric. Even at my age of… grown 
, I can appreciate the glitz & glamour of it all. C’mon, who doesn’t need that in our otherwise ordinary lives? That’s why, at first glance, this sweet sequin dress by Alice + Olivia put the biggest smile on my face. The price tag however? Not so much. I can’t say it’s overly expensive, but when a girl can save a few duckies, why shouldn’t she? So if sequins is your name and glamour is your game, check out our alternatives below.

These heels by Casadei are nothing short of fierce, a perfect blend of minimalistic steel with curvaceously constructed leather. If these shoes were inspired by a piece of furniture, I’d guess it was the sultry Barcelona Chair by Mies van der Rohe. Only thing is, the now sold-out pair cost almost as much! But of course, we always have another option, so see for yourself what an amazing deal we found below.

HOT DEAL: Use code “AF15SHOE” for 15% OFF all reg. priced styles! Ends 3/31/2012.
Walk with confidence with these gorgeous look-a-likes by Chinese Laundry, which are just as dangerously sultry as the original design. They’ll be perfect to wear with this season’s leather leggings or a fitted pencil skirt, just keep your top feminine and choose a softer fabric to help balance out the shoe’s edgier feel. Add one other architecturally-inspired accessory, such as a bold metal cuff, and brace yourself for endless compliments!

I’m always happy to see celebrities wearing accessible fashion, especially when they’re hitting the red carpet. Selena Gomez did just that by opting for a Balmain-ish ASOS black frock ($146.54) which she paired with a pair of steep Giuseppe Zanotti chiffon sandals ($850) at the GRAMMY Nominations Concert a few days ago. Well, you can’t expect a celeb going budget fashion head-to-toe I guess.

A few days ago Selena Gomez was getting her hair done in Vancouver, Canada looking cozy and stylish in a faux fur wrap jacket by bebe. Love the knotted tee, the buckled boots and the fact that Selena chose to go with an affordable look. Gotta love budget-conscious celebrities!
