Real vs. Steal – Christian Louboutin Burlina T-Strap Peep-toe Platform Pumps

by Roseanne on March 23, 2012

Reverting back to the 1920s Christian Louboutin strikes again with these beautiful Burlina T-Strap Peep-toe Platform Pumps. While the inspiration from the Flapper era is quite obvious, the sophistication is also very palpable. This classical design gone contemporary brings back nostalgia for Old Hollywood Glamour, yet the price is the direct opposite. This contradictory mix of fun sophistication is a modern interpretation of 20s inspired wardrobe for the quintessential woman. If you love these as much as I do, than you must check out the look-a-like below!

Real vs. Steal – Dolce & Gabbana Slingback Suede Wedges

by Irina on March 22, 2012

UPDATE: This post has been updated on March 22, 2012. Scroll down to see the new add.

How gorgeous are these Dolce & Gabbana slingback wedges? Chances are you’ve probably seen them before – on the fabulous Rumi from Fashiontoast. I find it very easy to fall in love with these darlings. And this is exactly what happened to Rumi; she’s been heavily obsessed with these wedges and has worn them more than a dozen times with jeans, dress, over tights… well, basically with anything. Shortly after she debuted her new shoe obsession on her blog, we have been constantly flooded with requests to find a steal version of these; so, ladies and gentlemen (?), here you go…

UPDATE (03/22/2012): After almost years I’ve managed to find another great and very affordable Dolce & Gabbana look-a-like by Dollhouse. These are lovely, aren’t they?

Jeffrey Campbell “Mariel” Suede Wedge Sandals

UPDATE (06/23/2010): Good news, everyone! Solestruck finally has the JC “Mariel” wedges in stock. Most sizes sizes are still available, so you better hurry and order quickly before they sell out again.

Jeffrey Campbell and his team are paying close attention to the fashion blogosphere and they’re very well aware of the power and influence of our web 2.0 style icons. Hence I wasn’t overly surprised to find out JC came up with an almost identical Dolce & Gabbana knockoff called “Mariel”. These platform wedges are certainly going to sell out in no time, so head on over to Shopbop and get your pair before it’s too late.

Real vs. Steal – Prada T-Strap Platform Wedges

by Erica on March 20, 2012

UPDATE: This post has been updated on March 20, 2012. Scroll down to see the new adds.

I’m hoping summer is just around the corner, but all I see is snow outside my window! Anyway, I can’t wait to slide into a pair of corked wedges and I think Prada might just fulfill that urge! This Prada wedge is a great neutral and will definitely go with tons of your summer dresses that you’re dying to pull out for this summer! These shoes are actually pretty decently priced compared to the original price of $690. But if $552 is still too steep for your wallet, just keep on reading…

Qupid Strappy Stitched Trim Wedges

UPDATE (04/09/2011): Just came across this great Prada look-a-like by Qupid. It misses a few details to be spot-on, but overall it’s still a great alternative if you’re looking to save some serious bucks. These wedges are available in cognac, black and white.

Chinese Laundry “Double Dip” T-Strap Wedges

Priced at only $79 these Chinese Laundry wedges will give you the same Prada look. Yet, they’re not as tall as the Pradas nor does this shoe have the nice curvature that the Prada wedge gives you. But the Chinese Laundry wedge is budget-friendly nonetheless! Available in tan, black, green and pink.

Go Shopping:

PSSST! – Sometimes when you add a product to your bag there’s an info stating “Unfortunately we are not able to ship this product outside of the United Kingdom.” – However, I had this info on a pair of shoes I ordered which got shipped to me (Germany) without any problem. Hence, I’d still try my luck anyways. The worst that can happen is your order getting cancelled and you’ll get your money back. Best thing that could happen to you? Getting the real Acne Pistol booties for 25% OFF (you won’t find these on sale ANYWHERE else)! Btw, Kurt Geiger also ships to Europe and the US (though shipping costs are admittedly a little steep). Have fun shopping around!

Real vs. Steal – Christian Louboutin Pigalle Pointed Flats

by Juliana on March 18, 2012

If you’ve never worn flats to work because they seem too informal, these pointy confections by Christian Louboutin may just be the anecdote. They are certainly among the most luxurious I’ve ever seen, and yet oddly familiar…like a pair that Holly Golightly might have pulled out from underneath the bed looking for her crocodile shoes in Breakfast at Tiffany’s. Of course, although these are fantastic, perhaps you may want to check out the other options below if your budget doesn’t allow for such a large investment.

Ivanka Trump “Annulio” Pointed Flats

This lovely option by Ivanka Trump, is both ladylike and modern at the same time. Perfectly polished for work, and yet they have a little added flirtatiousness to them as well. If there ever was a pair of flats that could look fabulous with a skirt, it’s got to be these. The pointy toe will elongate your legs, while the small heel elevates the foot just enough to give you support, and not completely betraying you at the end of the day with cramped toes. Plus, the patent leather is very easy to maintain. These are currently available in black, coral, lime, burgundy, grey and nude patent leather as well as matte black leather.

J.Crew “Viv” Pointed Patent Flats

Leave it to J.Crew to offer some spring-infused alternatives made from great quality soft leather, and sure to provide a comfortable fit. At $188, they are a little bit more expensive than your average department store option, but you’ll instantly feel the difference in the way these will mold to your feet. If you love wearing stylish flats, consider investing in a quality pair that you’ll keep reaching for year after year! Plus, choosing a bright shade like Kelly Green is a great way to update your favorite weekend skinny jeans.

Report “Gonzalez” Pointed Flats

If you like to have a pair of shoes on standby for those days where you can’t even fathom wearing any kind of heel, the answer is this pair by Report. Perhaps you might try this more matte version with some sleek black leggings and a sweater dress? I definitely love my heels, but this is one very convincing alternative… especially for when I need to look polished but my toes require a vacation. This pair is available in black, chestnut or nude patent leather.

Pour La Victoire “Bre” Pointed Flats

If you loved the color choices above, check out even more bright options with this beautifully constructed version by Pour La Victoire. While the shape of the shoe does provide a more polished look, you can really have fun and modernize with a some color by combining a fuchsia pair with your classic gray suit. Wear them also with tailored pants, or tapered capris! And why not invite your pretty a-line and full skirts to the party too? Just make sure to keep those skirt hems above the knee for the most flattering silhouette.(Shoes pictured are available in various colors and uppers.)
