Celebrity Look 4 Less – Liv Tyler’s Stella McCartney Polka Dot Mesh Dress

by Juliana on January 27, 2012

I am completely smitten by Liv Tyler‘s Stella McCartney Polka Dot cocktail dress. It is so chic and you don’t need that much to accessorize it, just a sparkly pair of drop earrings, a cute clutch and some classic black pumps. This dress is sexy, but it also leaves a little bit to the imagination with its black sheer sleeves and flirty details around the waist. Can’t wait to wear the look to your next cocktail party? Check out our look for less below!

Real vs. Steal – Stella McCartney Lucia Polka-Dot Sheer Knit Dress

by Irina on November 5, 2011

So who would’ve thought polka dots could be that sexy? Apparently, Stella McCartney did, that’s why she gave us plenty of beautiful fitted dresses with sheer polka dot sleeves for Fall 2011. I love the risqué character of the sheer inlays combined with the playfulness of the polka dots. How friggin’ hot does Kate Winslet look in that dress? But whoah, more than $2k for that bit of dress? Sorry hun, I’m afraid that ain’t quite my price league.

Rare Spot Mesh Bodycon Dress

I would’ve have loved if this Stella McCartney look-a-like by Rare would be a bit longer, but at $80 I won’t complain. Same look but huge price difference!

Real vs. Steal – Stella McCartney Cotton-blend Peplum Dress

by Irina on October 16, 2011

This dress is why I love Stella McCartney because it totally screams my name. This burgundy fitted peplum dress is 100% and I’d so buy it if my budget would allow such a hefty purchase. Which it does not, unfortunately. Sad,sad me!

Closet Peplum Dress

The sadness doesn’t last too long though as there are great Stella McCartney look-a-likes by Closet available and just waiting to save my budget! I’m absolutely in love with the blue version of this dress and now I’m debating whether there’s enough room in my wardrobe for yet another blue dress (I have so many now that it’s getting slightly ridiculous!).

Celebrity Look 4 Less – Charlize Theron’s Green Stella McCartney Sweater

by Irina on September 7, 2011

So how fabulous does Charlize Theron look here? Very, I’d say. I absolutely adore her emerald green wool sweater by Stella McCartney and the ivory YSL Roady hobo, so I decided to recreate Charlize’s shopping look on a more budget-friendly basis. Let us know what you think!

Real vs. Steal – Stella McCartney Maia Cork Platform Wedges

by Irina on May 20, 2011

UPDATE: This post has been updated on May 20, 2011. Scroll down to see the new add.

I’m a big fan of Stella McCartney! Very much like with Prada and Miu Miu I might not approve of EVERYTHING that is shown on the runways, but when I find myself liking something from these brands chances are I really, really LOVE it. Case in point: Stella’s “Maia” cork wedge from last year. Despite the remote resemblance of Birkenstock shoes I am still highly attracted to this wedge. Also, how genius is the pink lining? It’s small details like these that can turn a good shoe into a truly great one. What’s not so great about it? Oh yeah, I forgot… the friggin’ price of $735. Also the fact that it’s sold sold out.

UPDATE (05/20/2011): And here’s another fabulous Stella McCartney look-a-like by Dune for all the UK/European Maia fans. Bonus: everything on their site is on sale right now! These cork wedges here would normally cost £75, but are currently down to £60. Not sure when this promo ends though, so you better order fast if you want to take advantage of this sweet deal.

BCBgeneration “Crespo” Wedge Sandals

Thanks to BCBGeneration, we can now rock our own Stella McCartney wedges for a fraction of the price. Their “Crespo” wedge sandal is an almost identical copy of the “Maia” even though I wish it had the same hot pink lining as the original. But at $89 I am not one to complain. Available in gold, stone, black/white and light peach (shown below).
