Real vs. Steal – Miu Miu Rivet Sandals

by Celine on April 15, 2010

UPDATE: This post has been updated on April 15, 2010. Scroll down to see the new add.

Do you guys remember when Sex and the City the movie came out and everyone went gaga (including myself) for Carrie’s Dior gladiator sandals? Those heels were amazing. I love that look of a pump with studs or embellishment; they’re like jewels for your feet. These Miu Miu Rivet sandals are equally as awe-inspiring. I’m such a fan of the deep chestnut color and the brushed silver studs. They are currently on sale right now for $320 (retail price: $795), but even that is still out of my budget. So we began the search for a cheaper version.

Vince Camuto “Mabel” Sandals

Look at these sandals. Now scroll back up to the Miu Mius. Aside from the color and maybe a *slightly* lower heel, can you see any discrepancies? I can’t. Vince Camuto has created an amazing knock-off of the Miu Mius. They have almost every detail down perfectly – including the stud swirls! At about half the SALE price of the originals, I say these are a must have. Also available in black.

AmiClubWear Peep Toe Stud Heels

Now if you’re looking for a super affordable version of the Miu Miu Rivet sandals, why not try these heels by AmiClubWear? At $25.99 they’re lacking some of the pretty, delicate details that the original pair have but they’re still very cute and that 5 inch heel will make your legs look miles long. If you’re checking out these shoes on the retailer’s site, make sure to click on the thumbnail where we see the model’s legs. The other pics show a slightly distorted image. These are also available in black, cream and grey but act quickly as only limited sizes are left.

New Look Studded Cut Out Platforms

UK retailer, New Look, has offered up a slightly more streamlined pair of platform pumps. The studs are there but they left out the swirly patterns. Still, it’s pretty clear where they pulled their inspiration from – the silhouette is virtually identical to the Miu Mius. The price, however, is not. These will only set you back about $34 or £25. Available both in the black, pictured here, and cream.

It was only yesterday that I told you about these hot hidden platforms pumps by Mixx. They’re very reminiscient of Christian Louboutin’s Rolando pumps and I was right to say that you better act fast if you want to snap these up because I just checked and the black version is already completely sold out at LuLu*s. Not surprising considering their price of $34!

Anyway, I just cyberstalked on LuLu*s again and stumbled upon these awesome blue & hot pink version of the “Laura” pumps and I’m head over heels for them! Color, shape, price are absolutely fantastic! If you love these too, be fast because I don’t expect these to last long on the website either. Hurry and head over to LuLu*s to grab this cheap thrill (don’t forget to use our coupon code above for some extra budget relief).
