Real vs. Steal – Brian Atwood Drama Platform Pumps

by Erica on October 25, 2011

UPDATE: This post has been updated on October 25, 2011. Scroll down to see the new add.

I’m not quite sure who wouldn’t go gaga over the pair of Brian Atwood Drama Pumps! Gotta love that invisible platform! And I love the 50s detailing reminiscent of the saddle shoe on the heel. As you can see below this shoe has become a favorite among the A-listers. Victoria looks amazingly posh in her Brian Atwood pumps along with Danniii Minogue, Nicole Scherzinger and Ginnifer Goodwin! So, since this shoe is actually sold out for the time being, we will skip straight over to our steal!

Topshop SPEAR Apricot Contrast Heel Platforms

UPDATE (03/11/2011): Just stumbled upon another great Brian Atwood alternative by Topshop. The heel is silver instead of black, but the rest is pretty much spot-on (including the hidden platform).

Steve Madden “BEVV-B” Platform Pumps

Steve Madden‘s “BEVV-B” is the twin of the fabulous Brian Atwood Drama pump! Love it! And I LOVE the price even more! Priced at $99.99 you can get the same great look for less money! I’m still in love with the invisible platform the Brian Atwood pump offers, but, nonetheless, still a FAB shoe!

Real vs. Steal – Christian Louboutin Miss Fast Plato Ankle Boots

by Velicia Hill on September 29, 2011

UPDATE: This post has been updated on September 29, 2011. Scroll down to see the new adds.

Where does one begin when a boot is called Miss Fast Plato? Except, you go Ms. Thang, with your bad self! Who am I to question the great Mr. Louboutin? Oh no, not I, said the girl nicknamed Ms. Heel. ;-) I don’t ever get the names he assigns to his shoes, but I do know that by wearing this simple yet sexy boot, you’ll be one badass chick. Miss Fast Plato or better yet, Miss Deep Pockets (if you got it like that) – you look marvelous!

Nine West “Gracious” Booties

Well hello there, Miss Slow-To-Open-The-Wallet! We know you love to look good on a budget; that’s why we graciously went in search of a budget-friendly, but by no means, uncompromising sexy version of the Louboutin boot. And If I may say so myself, we did pretty good. “Gracious” by Nine West is remarkably similar (minus the heel height) for only a $109. Available in black, gray and nude leather as well as red and black suede.

Real vs. Steal – Prada Leopard-Printed Haircalf Sandals

by Irina on August 24, 2011

UPDATE: This post has been updated on August 24, 2011. Scroll down to see the new adds.

So you might already know about my love for all things Prada and if you’ve been following this blog for a while you’ll probably also know that I’m big, really BIG, on the leopard trend (which is still going strong these days). Hence my obsession with these leopard-printed Prada platforms shouldn’t come as a surprise to you. These heels are absolute head-turners and all what’s needed to make a monochrome outfit pop. Just look at Emmy Rossum rocking her Pradas with leather skinnies, a white blazer and a neon yellow purse. Doesn’t she look amazing? Now even if you were willing to spend a fortune on a pair of shoes, it’s too bad, but they’re long gone and all sold out.

Enzo Angiolini “Farrel” Leopard Pumps

However, this ain’t a reason to give up on a pair of fabulous leopard platforms à la Prada. Enzo Angiolini “Farrel” pumps will give you the same wild look but for a much smaller investment. Who can say no to leopard shoes at that price level? I know I can’t.

INC International Concepts “Mariella” Sandals

Wanna save even more? Then you might want to opt for these INC International Concepts heels which are less similar to the Pradas but similar enough to give the same look & feel, only for even less money. These also come in nude or red patent.
