When I saw Stephanie Pratt dazzling in her black sequined LBD at the Ninja Assassin premiere back in November I remember thinking that her dress would make a great New Year’s Eve dress. I was quite surprised to find out this dress was by Topshop and hence reasonably priced.

Our Rating: 




Oasis All Over Sequin Dress
Of course the Topshop dress sold out before I could even think of purchasing it. But imagine my delight when I stumbled upon an almost identical version for almost the same budget price. Oasis‘ version looks just as great and the only difference is that it doesn’t have the exposed zipper in the back which I kind of prefer actually.

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.

Have you found your favorite summer shoes yet? Peep-toe slingbacks are perfect summer heels as they look summery by default and keep your feet cool in the hot summer sun. Christian Louboutin‘s “So Private” slingback platform pumps are ideal summer shoe candidates if you can ignore the price for a moment.

The Highest Heel “Precious-101″ Platform Sandal
I stumbled upon these Christian Louboutin look-a-likes a few days ago and thought they would be a great alternative to the real Louboutins. The upper finish is grosgrain canvas instead of black patent leather, but the cork heel and the shape of the platform pump look almost identical. The slingbacks come in 3 different colors: black as shown below, bubblegum-pink and white. They’re also on sale right now, so place your order before they run out of your size.
