If I had to choose my favorite Louboutin of 2009 I think the “Nitoinimoi” bandage ankle bootie below would definitely be up for consideration. There are not enough words to describe how much I love these. However, there is also not enough cash in my wallet to buy these as well.

Anne Michelle Addiction 55 Buckled Booties
Once again Anne Michelle comes to the rescue! Their “Nitoinimoi” knockoff is almost a 1:1 copy of the real deal. The only differences are the missing red sole and the pointed toe which is square on the originals. Everything else from the shape to the bandages and the buckles looks identical. And they’re so inexpensive, too! Only $44. Such a great deal, gotta love LuLu*s.

Boutique 9 “Siaka” Ankle Boots
I know these boots by Boutique 9 are more of an “inspired-by” kind rather than a complete rip-off, but I still think they fit the bill for a great Louboutin alternative. I’m also sort of in love with them even though they are not a steal at $229. Also available in brown.

Hi Ange, thank you for sharing this find.
hey i just found the Liliana “Jones” Strapped Booties at urban original since flyjane.net doesn’t have them anymore. They are reg. $28.99 and have a promo code “giveaway” for 30% off which is until 1/26/10. Can’t wait til they arrive! :^)
Have you all seen any of this style in leopard print?
Chinese Laundry shoes are amazing, comfortable, trendy, and are at amazing prices!
The buckles are such an edgy touch if worn with something lacy or more feminine. Thanks for sharing! They’re on my wishlist
