Celebrity Look 4 Less – Liv Tyler’s Stella McCartney Polka Dot Mesh Dress

by Juliana on January 27, 2012

I am completely smitten by Liv Tyler‘s Stella McCartney Polka Dot cocktail dress. It is so chic and you don’t need that much to accessorize it, just a sparkly pair of drop earrings, a cute clutch and some classic black pumps. This dress is sexy, but it also leaves a little bit to the imagination with its black sheer sleeves and flirty details around the waist. Can’t wait to wear the look to your next cocktail party? Check out our look for less below!

In Olivia Palermo’s Closet – Topshop ARIEL Flame Side Mesh Boots

by Irina on November 30, 2011

Olivia Palermo attended the British Fashion Awards in London 2 days ago looking fabulous as always in a feathered Matthew Williamson dress and black Topshop ankle boots. I wasn’t too thrilled about Olivia’s dress on this occasion, but her $150 Topshop booties are quite likable, aren’t they?

Real vs. Steal – Stella McCartney Lucia Polka-Dot Sheer Knit Dress

by Irina on November 5, 2011

So who would’ve thought polka dots could be that sexy? Apparently, Stella McCartney did, that’s why she gave us plenty of beautiful fitted dresses with sheer polka dot sleeves for Fall 2011. I love the risqué character of the sheer inlays combined with the playfulness of the polka dots. How friggin’ hot does Kate Winslet look in that dress? But whoah, more than $2k for that bit of dress? Sorry hun, I’m afraid that ain’t quite my price league.

I would’ve have loved if this Stella McCartney look-a-like by Rare would be a bit longer, but at $80 I won’t complain. Same look but huge price difference!

Real vs. Steal – Stella McCartney Mesh Basket Sandals

by Irina on May 16, 2011

UPDATE: This post has been updated on May 16, 2011. Scroll down to see the new add.

Mary-Kate Olsen is quite the trendsetter. A few weeks after being spotted on MK’s feet, Stella McCartney‘s mesh sandals hit the digital shelves of NET-A-PORTER, but sold out there super fast. If you are craving the real deal, you can still find them on Stella’s website or read on and let me show you some recession-proof alternatives.

Mary-Kate Olsen Loves Stella McCartney

At the beginning of 2009, Mary-Kate Olsen was having an obsession with Stella McCartney’s mesh sandals from the Spring 2009 collection. She was wearing them to various events and when being out and about before finally moving on to another pair of lustworthy heels which she could wear to death.

Bebe “Lizzy” Mesh Sandals

I always thought Steve Madden is the king of knockoffs, but after seeing so many knockoffs coming from Bebe latey, I have come to the conclusion that they deserve this title. Whenever I visit their website, new designer knockoffs have popped up just like these Stella McCartney knockoffs for example. Bebe’s “Lizzy” sandals come in 3 different colors and retail for $139.
