Real vs. Steal – Prada Cutout T-Strap Platform Sandals

Well, the season for open footwear such as these turquoise suede Prada sandals is pretty much over, but I couldn’t help but show these to you because I really love these little darlings. Love the color, the delicate suede, the cut-outs, the rounded heel. They’re just absolutely lovely and still rockable if you don’t mind wearing tights with open sandals.

Real vs. Steal – Jimmy Choo Fire Cut-Out Ankle Boots

by Vahni on May 26, 2011

UPDATE: This post has been updated on May 26, 2011. Scroll down to see the new add.

I am naturally not attracted to red—I have a total of three red pieces in my wardrobe. But when I saw the red suede Jimmy Choo Fire Cut-Out Ankle Boots like Fergie’s (below), I fell in love. Fire indeed! They are totally hot. There’s just something about all those stripes of skin peeking through.

Vince Camuto “Aphrodite” Sandals

Who doesn’t love a Choo shoe? I know no woman alive who’d deny herself the pleasure if her finances could enable the experience. If only. Since most of us can’t fill our closets with boxes by Jimmy Choo (and because the Fire Cut-Out Ankle Boots are sold out anyway) here’s a nice consolation prize: the “Aphrodite” by Vince Camuto. They aren’t 100% like the Choo version, but still a shapely and sexy pair. Available in black, nude and natural… and I’m loving the natural for all those military looks planned for spring.

Office “BASK IN GLORY” Cut-Out Booties

Also worthy of consideration are the “BASK IN GLORY” Cut-Out Booties by Office. Love this shoe for its Choo-like similarities (the buckle detail and opening at the ankle), and also for its daring differences (woven detail and trim). It’s also available in a delectable dark taupe that really showcases the lovely detail on these booties—you must click over to Office to see the 360-degree view. I’d even go so far as to say that I like the dark taupe better than the Choo booties. Now that speaks volumes, doesn’t it?

Real vs. Steal – Camilla Skovgaard S10011 Cut-Out Sandals

by Velicia Hill on May 10, 2011

You know, I love how everyone decides upon their signature scent or their own way of dressing. Doing what one needs to do in order to stand out in a crowd. And that’s exactly what Camilla Skovgaard did by giving her shoes a crazy saw bottom à la Edward Scissorhands! She might not be a household name yet, but you’ll definitely recognize her shoes the next time you’re out shopping. Too bad you won’t be able to pick up this adorable sandal/bootie – already sold out! But because we ALWAYS have your back, scroll down for a great alternative.

Promiscuous “Malia” Sandals

I told ya, we’d have your back. Check out Malia-a sassy lil thang by Promiscuous! Of course she’s missing the crazy bottom, but for only $69 who’s complaining? Bonus: a higher heel (but that just might be me). Available in black or nude faux suede.

Real vs. Steal – Fendi Butterfly Platform Pumps

by Velicia Hill on March 29, 2011

Be still my beating heart… because I’m so sure you’ve read my bio (you love me don’t ya?), you already know my heart skipped a beat for these beautiful Fendi shoes! The convergence of blue suede and Italian leather, reeks of quality and skilled craftsmanship. Which I guess justifies the astronomical price tag. But don’t you worry, caterpillar, we’ve found a stylish steal that magically metamorphosed from the Fendi Butterfly.

Boutique 9 “Caurah” Platform Pumps

Seriously, hats off to Mother Nature! In the natural order of things, what starts off as overpriced, MUST be re-born (fine, I’ll say it… copied) cheaper and just as pretty! “Caurah” by Boutique 9 is a pretty good replica; only missing that extra inch of platform. But for only $170, I’ll spread my beautiful new wings and fly away with this great deal which is available in taupe/pink, black, grey and natural suede.
