So who doesn’t love a bit of glitter every now and then? Glitter has become a growing trend, from shoes completely adorned with glitter to small yet eye-popping accents. And what better to way to incorporate the glitz and glam than this glitter-covered leather belt by Miu Miu. The rich gold color speaks of luxury yet it is not overpowering. However, this belt is $275 and currently sold out. For a similar take on this trend, check out the alternative below.

There’s been quite a buzz around Brian Atwood’s diffusion line B Brian Atwood which features shoe styles half the price of his signature line. Most of the shoes are around the $300-350 mark which, unfortunately, is still a bit out of reach for me, but I might get lucky to get my BA shoe fix when those B Brian Atwood styles go on sale/clearance. Which, again unfortunately, sure won’t happen with these mixed metal platform pumps. Aren’t they just absolutely gorgeous? The shape is close to perfect and the metallic colors in this case complement each other rather than clashing with each other. Instant shoe love!

Speaking of a super popular shoe, it seems that these Jimmy Choo Greta Platform Sandals have made quite the statement among celebs. I love everything that this shoe has to offer, especially the metallic hue and the towering heel. I can’t even decide who wore these platform sandals best; everyone looks so fashionable and posh. Who do you think wore Jimmy Choo best? Surprisingly though… these glamorous platforms are not sold out yet so if you want to, or have $1.095 then these would make an amazing splurge. Otherwise, scroll down to see the fabulous steal below.

Sergio Zelcer “Osima” Platform Sandals
Thanks to Sergio Zelcer, the “Osima” Platform Sandals practically dupe the Jimmy Choo design above. These shoes definitely fit into the category of “glamour”, and are very elegant for a special event. Though I love the solid tones, the tie dye options add a certain zest and have more of a casual look. Available in gold, silver, and orange and blue tie dye.

Wow! I can’t really describe these Christian Louboutin Duvette Metallic and Patent-Leather Pumps in any other way. Far away from demure, these pumps are reminiscent of old Hollywood glamour and spark nostalgia within me. There is something special about these pumps that I can’t quite get a grasp of. The cutouts embossed with gold truly bring luxury to the table, and as usual the sophistication of this shoe is what makes Louboutin so iconic. If you’re as head over heels for these pumps as I am, than the steal below is simply a must see!

Ivanka Trump “Gurdian” Pumps
Ivanka Trump is really becoming the superwoman of this century, adding another occupation to her résumé. But I have to her immense credit because I love the “Gurdian” Pumps. The snakeskin pattern on the golden panels really adds a nice flair and shows her take on this unique design. These pumps are faux replication at its best and for $107.99 are worth every penny.

A few days ago Gossip Girl actress Blake Lively helped making cupcakes for a good cause at Sprinkles in NYC. The blonde beauty looked stylish and festive in a cream sheer button-down blouse which she paired with a stunning gold Gucci leather skirt from the Resort 2012 collection. I’m not sure where she was headed with the dark green Brian Atwood Maniac pumps, but since I’m really loving Blake’s upper ensemble I’m willing to overlook her shoe choice faux-pas. Check out our budget-friendly take on Blake’s look below and let us know what you think!
