So we received quite a few reader requests to find a knock-off of the uber-glam Bridget strass-adorned lace booties by the legendary Christian Louboutin. These were designed by Monsieur Louboutin for Marchesa’s ethereal Spring 2010 collection and perfectly reflected the brand’s affinity for feminine details like lace and embellishments. Month after month passed by and no knock-offs were in sight. I began to think that copycats à la Madden & Campbell shy away from this particular style because of the complicity of this shoe – the fragile strass & the delicate lace – details that’ll look incredibly tacky and wrong if done cheaply. But – lo and behold! Today was one of those rare lucky days…

Anne Michelle Obscene-14 Embroidered Heels
UPDATE (08/04/2010): I really didn’t think it would get better than Dollhouse’s Tano, but look at these floral embroidered Loubie look-a-likes by Anne Michelle! Wowza! They might not be top notch quality, but at half the price of the DH version you won’t hear me complaining. And don’t forget, take 20% OFF with coupon code “AMIPROMO20“. Available in gold (shown below) as well as black and silver.

Dollhouse “Tano” Platform Sandals
UPDATE (06/04/2010): Yay! LoveMyShoes is the latest etailer to stock up on the Dollhouse “Tano” booties in all 3 colors (gold, black & red). All sizes still available. Don’t miss out on these & order them ASAP before they’re gone again!
Imagine my utter excitement when I spied these “Tano” sandals by Dollhouse yesterday! This knock-off is probably as good as it gets. Yes, they don’t have strass on the heel, but what do you expect from a $60 shoe? I think they look absolutely fabulous and they’re super affordable, on top of it. Gotta order these ASAP before you guys snap them all away. Available in gold, black and red. Order fast, I really don’t think these darlings will stay too long on the website once people catch wind of these Louboutins 4 less.

I’ve been a huge fan of Brian Atwood for a few years and now that SJP flaunted her lilac Locas in the newest Sex and the City installment, it seems like everyone and their mother does love his shoes as well. Brian really stepped up his shoe game lately and these studded platform pumps with clear panel are sick! In a good way. I love the contrast between the feminine lilac color and the kickass sky-high heel and gold studs. Too bad they’re way out of my budget at $800 a pair.

Hypnotic “Parker” Studded Pumps
HOT DEAL: Use secret coupon code “MIL30” to receive 15% OFF your order!
These Hypnotic “Parker” pumps are a dead ringer for the Brian Atwood Locas. They come in 5 colors including taupe which is the closest to the original lilac, black, grey, red & blue faux suede. The black and grey version popped up on Shiekh Shoes today and you better head over and place your order immediately as these have sold out within hours at a few other retailers already. I couldn’t even write a quick post before they were all gone, so I held back until I saw a fresh restock and well, here you have ‘em. They’re quite cheap at only $59.97 and because we love you and want you to save some more cash we dug out a promo code for a 15% discount. This will save you a further $9 making the shoes a little above $50. Now don’t waste your time reading here and grab ‘em quickly!

What came first: Sarah Jessica Parker‘s amazing sense of style or Sex and the City? Not quite sure what the answer to that is, but I do know that anytime SJP is seen in public, she really wows. Not only does she have a seriously kick-ass body that looks good in all sorts of styles, but she really takes risks too – some that really pay off, some that fall a little short. Here she is (with Cynthia Nixon) on the set of Sex and the City 2, looking every bit the fashion-forward NYer that she plays (and IS). My favorite part of the outfit, without hesitation, are those Brian Atwood Loca pumps. The gold studs are so very “now” and OMG that divine platform and d’orsay heel. Not cheap at $800, but most certainly stunning.

A few days ago we gave you the inside scoop on SJP‘s white jersey dress which she wore on the film set of Sex and the City 2 last September. If you can’t afford spending a fortune on the real deals, see our look 4 less below for a more affordable approach on Carrie’s summery look.

We’ll have to wait a few more months until we get to see the celluloid fashion extravaganza that is Sex and the City 2, but if you cannot wait until May to get your Carrie fix, how about shopping her fantabulous wardrobe as a fill-in? Last September Sarah Jessica Parker has been spotted strutting the streets of New York as Carrie Bradshaw in gold encrusted Louboutins, a delicate white v-neck dress by Halston Heritage with a gold Chanel box clutch and mirrored aviator sunglasses. SJP looked absolutely smashing, and from what I’ve seen up ’til now this is my favorite Carrie outfit from the movie. Film execs seemed to have been equally impressed with SJP’s resort look. Apparently so much they put it on the official movie poster. Me likey!

I know you’re going to love this! Remember the gorgeous blue Cinderella-like Manolos Carrie wore at the end of the Sex and the City Movie? Yeah, I couldn’t get them out of my head either. The classic design and the bold blue hue make them great contenders for your favorite formal footwear.
Manolo Blahnik Something Blue Satin Pump
($925, Neiman Marcus)
Sex and the City Loves Manolo Blahnik
In the movie Carrie said they cost $525, but due to the vast demand retailers almost doubled the price to outrageous $925 making them a fictional purchase only for most of us shoe addicts who are living on a budget. What a bummer!
RSVP “Zaza” Blue Satin Pumps
UPDATE (09/23/2009): Stumbled upon these awesome Manolo Blahnik knockoffs by RSVP today.
Look what I found! If you missed out on the Martinez Valero heels or just couldn’t justify the $160 price tag, these satin pumps by RSVP look almost identical, but are $60 cheaper. Available in blue, black, ivory and white. Grab these knockoffs while you can, I’m sure they are going to sell out super fast.
RSVP also has a flat heeled version of the Manolo Blahnik look-a-likes called “Cassie
” ($99) which looks exactly like the Martinez Valero version except with a low heel.

Shiekh “Mitzy Hachi-200″ Satin Pumps
UPDATE (09/23/2009): Another alternative to the Manolo Blahnik Something Blue satin pumps.
I know these satin pumps by Shiekh aren’t exactly knockoffs, but the blue satin and the vamp embellishment reminded me of the Manolo Blahniks above and since these here resemble the Sedaraby pumps by Blahnik famously worn by Carrie Bradshaw a lot, I thought I just put them here as a budget-friendly alternative for under $50. Also available in pink and black satin!

Martinez Valero “Zenith” Blue Satin Pumps
Do not despair however! Because Martinez Valero has finally heard our prayers! He came up with an almost identical pair of his own blue satin pumps which also have the vamp embellishment, but cost only about 1/10 of the original Manolos. So if you are in need of beautiful yet affordable bridal shoes, these here might be your best bet. But hurry, once the masses get wind of these Manolo Blahnik look-a-likes, I guarantee you, they will be gone in a minute!

Every woman should have at least one pair of strappy stiletto sandals in every basic color (like black, white, red, nude) because a strappy sandal makes a woman’s feet look instantly sexy. It sure isn’t easy walking around in high stiletto heels without looking like a squint-eyed, drunk stork, but once you have the hang of it, you’ll agree that it very well is worth the effort and pain. The Jimmy Choo sandals below would be a great investment if you are looking for high quality shoes.

Steve Madden SELLENA Strappy Sandals
Steve Madden’s Jimmy Choo Atlas interpretation is my favorite in terms of price & look. The strappy sandals come very close to the original Choos not only in shape, but also color. If you want a rather classic color, you can purchase them in black as well.

I’m not so fond of the snakeskin print of these Jimmy Choo knockoffs by Carlos Santana, but the shape is almost identical, so I thought I’d mention them.

Another great knockoff alternative, although not available in a taupe or nude color, comes from Miss Me. The strappy sandals can be purchased for around $40 in either black, red, teal or fuchsia.

For all the Twilight/Bella fans out there, I just wanted to give you all a shoutout that Bella’s blue hooded jacket from the Twilight movie is now finally available.

The jacket is by BB Dakota and retails for affordable 63.99! Better be fast and place your order soon as I predict the jacket will sell out quickly. Good luck!
