Kelsi Dagger

UPDATE: This post has been updated on May 22, 2011. Scroll down to see the new add.

I am a huge fan of Jennifer Aniston‘s style. She delicately walks the edges of trends while always maintaining a classic style that I’m pretty sure we’ll never look back on, thinking “God, WHAT was she wearing?” Last summer Jen started rocking a pair of Stuart Weitzman espadrilles that had me drooling. Clearly I wasn’t the only fan though; the Alex Espadrille Wedges flew off the shelves and were forever more impossible to find. They’re back now and available on several e-retailer sites and I would probably kill to own a pair. Seriously, I recommend you not being around me right now. Sadly these are just out of my price range.

Sacred Heart “Arven” Espadrilles

UPDATE (05/22/2011): The “Alex” knockoff wave just won’t stop! I keep finding new Alex look-a-likes day in, day out. But these here by Sacred Heart are actually really, really amazing. They are soooo spot-on and, OMG!, look at the price. $39.99 – this deserves an award or something (still can’t loose the feeling these are just rebranded, look at N.Y.L.A.’s Colby, Black Rooster’s Colb & Bakers’ “Midtown”, they all look completely identical).

N.Y.L.A. “Colby” / “Colbie” Espadrille Wedges

UPDATE (05/10/2011): OMG! This is the 15th “Alex” knockoff we have discovered. And an amazing one it is! N.Y.L.A.s “Colby” wedges are super close to the real SW Alex espadrilles and kind of remind me of the Black Rooster version (might be just a rebranded version). Available in taupe (shown), ivory or black.

Kelsi Dagger “Ivy” Espadrilles

We’ve featured Kelsi Dagger shoes quite a few times here on InTheirCloset and this is why. They consistently come out with great “inspired by” shoes without wandering too far into “exact copy” territory. In this case I have to say that I wish they’d stayed true to the original. The lower wedge is great, as is the color, but a braided/woven strap would have made these perfection. Ah, well, still a great shoe! Also available in pewter, black and white.
