Real vs. Steal – Alexander Wang Fabiana Metallic Patent Leather Cape Sandals

by Juliana on January 25, 2012

If I ever want to add a dash of sex appeal, I usually reach for a pair of sky-high heels and instantly I feel transformed. But these Alexander Wang Metallic Sandals are in a league all their own. They are one part mysterious and two parts siren, and how gorgeous is that metallic rose gold? Unfortunately, they are completely sold out, but you can snag a similar pair for a fraction of the original $495 price tag. Check out the steals below!

Real vs. Steal – Alexander Wang Hanne Ankle Boots

by Irina on January 4, 2012

UPDATE: This post has been updated on January 4, 2012. Scroll down to see the new add.

While Alexander Wang‘s Fall 2009 collection didn’t impress me much in terms of clothes I must admit I am quite fond of these buckled pointy ankle boots which were also a part of this collection. The other shoe styles were a bit too masculine for me, but the “Hanne” boot had just the right amount of edginess and badass punk. Sadly, they are also quite pricey at more than $1.200 a pair.

Qupid Plot-05 Buckled Booties

UPDATE (01/04/2012): I didn’t really think I’d stumble upon any more Hanne look-a-likes, but Qupid came out with a very Wang inspired version for under $40.

Jeffrey Campbell “Morrow” Buckle Booties

Jeffrey Campbell knows how to satisfy a fashionista’s craving for top notch style but without the designer price tag. His latest style incorporates an almost identical version of Alexander Wang’s Hanne booties mixed with a Camilla Skovgaard sole.

If you are looking for a cheaper option, ALDO has a pair of boots which look heavily inspired by Alexander Wang’s Hanne booties. The buckles are silver and differently arranged, but the look and feel still screams ALEXANDER WANG!

In Kristin Cavallari’s Closet – MINKPINK & Alexander Wang

by Irina on October 29, 2011

So in terms of fame, talent and celebrity status Kristin Cavallari might be totally irrelevant and overrated, but I have to admit I do like the way she dresses. For example, I love the look Kristin recently sported while making her way to the LAX airport. Big shades, carrying the iconic Rocco satchel by Alexander Wang, black skinnies paired with suede high heel booties, an oversized cardi and an animal print snood to cozy up with when the overenthusiastic A/C starts blowing your way on the plane. Casual and comfy yet still totally stylish. A+ for travel chic!

Real vs. Steal – Alexander Wang Anais Loafer Pumps

by Velicia Hill on October 20, 2011

I have to admit when accessorizing with jewelry, I tend to go for silver. And these Anais loafer pumps by Alexander Wang are no exception. A beautiful shiny yet matte loafer with matching tassels that will look awesome with an all red ensemble or, of course, with the always proverbial play-it-safe black. But at $650, I’d rather take a pair in silver plated, please. ;-)

Topshop “PLANET” Flared Heel Platform Moccasins

Well, what planet are you on? Um… a cheaper one that’s selling this very cute “Planet” platform by Topshop! Absolutely loving the exaggerated platform and the fact that it’s available in black and silver for under $200.

Jeffrey Campbell “Zealous” Wedge Pumps

OMG, this knock-off is my favorite! I’m jealous of any chick who has this wedge and overzealous writing about this hot “Zealous” heel by Jeffrey Campbell. OK, it’s not the cheapest knock-off we’ve ever discovered, but a wedge like this must be in your fall lineup. Available for $169.95 in awesome fall colors: silver (as seen), black & bronze (paired with rich browns & oranges will be hot). At least the fashion style tips are FREE!

Real vs. Steal – Alexander Wang Rocco Mini Duffel Bag

by Celine on October 5, 2011

UPDATE: This post has been updated on October 05, 2011. Scroll down to see the new add.

You know how I know we’re good? Because we never forget a shoe. Or a handbag. Or a face. OK, so not the last one. Back in the old days (you know, 2005) the fashion world saw the introduction to the “It Bag” – a bag that became every starlet’s must have accessory. One day, readers (stay with me), Mary Kate Olsen was spotted carrying a gorgeous black, studded bag that no one could identify but that everyone immediately wanted. A year later the bag (eventually attributed to the talented, Alexander Wang) was made available to the public. It was then known as “Coco”; it is now known as “Rocco”; I can afford neither one.

Street Level 78080 Studded Duffel Bag

UPDATE (10/05/2011): Found another good Rocco knockoff by Street Level. It only comes in taupe, has 2 added tassels and it is also faux leather, but the price of $68 makes up for this.

BagInc “Alexa” Studded Leather Bag

UPDATE (04/26/2011): I just stumbled upon this fantastic and virtually identical Rocco look-a-like by BagInc. Love it! It’s a little pricey, but a) it’s made of real leather for once and b) they offer free shipping on orders of $99+ (they ship worldwide). Plus, you can get 10% OFF your entire order with our exclusive coupon code “INTHEIRCLOSET“. Yup, that’s how much we love you! ;-)

Wet Seal Stud Bottom Satchel

I have to be honest, the last time I shopped at Wet Seal I was looking for something to wear to the school dance (in other words, it was 1998), but by golly perhaps Wet Seal deserves another look! Their Stud Bottom Satchel is a pretty darn great dupe of the Alexander Wang bag. True, it’s not made out of leather but I know there are vegans among us who actually prefer that. For a measly $24.50 this is a hot bag to add to your arsenal. (Note: if you’re having trouble locating the bag on theWet Seal site, click on the link below and enter the style number – “42178118” – into the search field).
