Is there anything you can’t love about these absolutely gorgeous Valentino suede cutout lace up booties? They are from last season’s fall line and of course sold out by now despite the hefty price tag of $945.

When I first saw these Pour La Victoire “Eden” cutout booties, I intuitively knew that they had to be some sort of upscale knockoffs (Pour La Victoire makes these on a regular basis). Call it my knockoff intuition. I find myself falling for the nude version, but I also love them in blue and black as well. Shopbop has these also in a cream and grey version.

Rihanna has worn a multitude of fabulous things last week and I wanted to give you all a small update on her latest fab acquisitions. I loved her black Alexander McQueen killer zip up booties which she wore to Fred Segal on June 02, 2009. A few days before, Rihanna looked incredibly sexy in a one shouldered Alexander Wang LBD. On that same day Rihanna also sported a casual outfit by pairing a white Brian Reyes vest together with a blue MiH Jeans skinny jeans. Keep on going, RiRi!

I just stumbled upon your site and LOVE IT! I was wondering if in your research you ever came across a knockoff version of the Christian Louboutin Striped Satin d’Orsay sandal in blue. I would love to have this shoe to wear for my wedding but since I am paying for said wedding I can’t afford to drop a grand on shoes alone.
Thank you!
You might remember this reader request I got from Sarah. Back then I wasn’t able to find a knockoff in the desired blue color, so I featured the black and gold/silver ones I found. That was until today when I accidentally found a neat knockoff pair by Charlotte Russe.

In case you lived under a rock for the last 2 years: Hervé Léger is THE new, hot thing to have. Ever since the brand has been revived by BCBG owner Max Azria, everyone from A- to D-List has been sporting one of the sexy body-con bandage dresses. I seriously lost count just how often I’ve seen Hervé Léger designs on the red carpet for the last 2 years.

Now look at this! Charlotte Russe apparently got wind of the Hervé Léger mania and decided to cash in on the craze. Their knockoff dresses sure are not as delicate as an original Hervé Léger, but at $26.99 I guess you just can’t have it all, huh?
SHHHH! Don’t tell anyone, but if you enter coupon code AFF15PCT at the checkout, you’ll get 15% OFF your order (promo code valid until June 13, 2009)!

You’re probably already aware of my obsession for everything nautical, so it may not surprise you that seeing Emmy Rossum in this super cute VAVA by Joy Han skipper dress makes me swoon. Emmy attended Nivea and Shay Todd’s “Bikini Bash” in Malibu a few days ago and looked simply drop dead gorgeous in that dress whilst being perfectly accessorized with a white Gustto “Andrea” satchel.
I am really, really loving Emmy’s dress – the cute navy striped bodice, the high-waisted denim skirt and don’t even get me started on the cute gold buttons! L-O-V-E! Perfect summer dress.
