In Fergie’s Closet – REISS, Joe’s Jeans & Fergie

by Irina on December 6, 2011

Here we have yet another posterbook example of fabulous airport fashion. Look how Fergie is rocking her flaming red REISS blazer (currently on sale; hint, hint!) with white skinnies by Joe’s Jeans and a floral print blouse, also by REISS, underneath. She could’ve done better in the shoes + bag department, but overall I like this look a lot on Fergie!

by Irina on April 12, 2011

I’m so infatuated with the leopard print trend, it’s getting ridiculous. This is the third time I am writing about leopard print shoes, but all these great styles keep coming and coming and I would be a bad, bad fashion blogger not to let you know about them. So here you have it: a new batch of gorgeous leopard shoes. Let me know what you think. Have you already bought some leopard shoes or do you rather skip this wild trend?

Real vs. Steal – Givenchy Open-Toe Wedge Booties

by Irina on March 23, 2011

UPDATE: This post has been updated on March 23, 2011. Scroll down to see the new add.

For the last couple weeks I’ve had quite the passionate love affair with Givenchy. It really hit me out of nowhere because I remember being totally underwhelmed by the S/S 2010 collection first, but now I’m starting to warm up to the collection (minus the conehead hats, they’re still a big no). The footwear range of this collection was bold; Riccardo Tisci’s ultra-high chunky platform wedges certainly weren’t for the faint of heart. And while they’re not something I’m seeing myself rocking anytime soon, I still admire them for what they are: pieces of wearable art that is.

Jeffrey Campbell “Dipper” Open-Toe Booties

Come on, you didn’t really think Jeffrey Campbell would miss the chance to come up with their own Givenchys for the masses, did you? Say hi to the “Dipper”.

Joe’s Jeans “Lilly” Wedge Booties

Did you know Joe’s Jeans does footwear besides… jeans? Well, now you know and apparently they like getting inspired by high fashion brands as you can clearly see their “Lilly” wedge booties have quite a few Givenchy references. They basically just rounded the edges and called it a shoe. Also, do you happen to notice the almost twin-like similarities between the JC “Dippers” and these “Lilly” booties? Makes me wonder if they’re just a rebranded version of the JCs but with a higher price tag?!

Trouve “Trina” Wedge Sandals

Another great alternative to the real Givenchys are these budget-friendly wedges by Trouve. They’ve been tamed in terms of look and are not as extreme as the Givenchys, but this makes them a lot more wear- and manageable. Available in black or nude.

ALDO “Gersten” Sandal Bootie Wedges

Finally, let me present ALDO‘s take on the Givenchy wedges to you. The “Gersten”. The streamlined look and the lower platform makes this shoe probably the most wearable Givenchy knockoff out of the 4 and it’s also the cheapest Givenchy look-a-like at $100.

Real vs. Steal – Givenchy Multi Strap Wedges

by Irina on March 14, 2011

UPDATE: This post has been updated on March 14, 2011. Scroll down to see the new add.

How kickass are these shiny multi strap wedges by Givenchy? When I first saw the footwear collection for the S/S 2010 collection I was unsure if fast fashion chains would answer the call by replicating these extreme almost fetish-style shoes. But surprisingly a lot of them did and we’ve had several of the Givenchy shoes available for those on a lighter shoe shopping budget.

Steve Madden “BONNDD” Wedge Sandals

UPDATE (10/27/2010): Apparently Steve Madden liked these Givenchy wedges so much they had to make a second, cheaper alternative. Good for us broke Givenchy lovers I guess. Available in black, blue, cognac & blush.

Joe’s Jeans “Unforgettable” Wedge Sandals

UPDATE (09/05/2010): This is the 4th Givenchy knockoff I’ve come across in a matter of 2 weeks. Seems like people love Givenchy right now. Joe’s Jeans who are now also making footwear have copied Givenchy in the past, so it didn’t come as a surprise that they’ve done it again. Available in black leather or grey suede.

Jessica Simpson “Tito” Wedges

Isn’t it amazing how you can get Givenchy style for 1/10 of the originals’ price? Thanks to Jessica Simpson you can wow the crowds by opting for these almost identical Givenchy look-a-likes. Totally amazed by this shoe line.

Heel of the Day – Joe’s Jeans Diva Platform Sandals

by Irina on June 25, 2010

Isn’t it amazing how a brand called Joe’s Jeans whose main focus lies on denim makes such remarkable and outstanding footwear? We first wrote about a pair of their shoes just recently in a Givenchy Real vs. Steal post and now they’ve managed to astonish me yet once again with the fabulousness of their shoes. This sky-high “Diva” platform has something Fendi about it, but I think I actually prefer it over its designer pendant. Everyone knows I love a platform because they make a really high heel so much more comfortable and this specific one here reminds me of Charlotte Olympia who is a great shoe designer. Another bonus: the nude color. I’m officially in love (I often am I know)!
