Peep-toe

These ladylike slingbacks by Giuseppe Zanotti are perfect for a Spring day. Their soft red color and wooden stacked heel is equal parts boho and girly. Just think about all of the fun outings to which you’ll be wearing them! I am envisioning myself at a French café, sipping on a hot cappuccino and chocolate croissant. The only drawback about my lovely daydream is the not-so-dreamy price of the shoes. But not to despair, you can be sure we’ve found the best alternative yet! Check out the fabulous steal below…

These Steve Madden candy-colored peep-toes offer just the same amount of playfulness, while still giving the appearance of super long legs with a coyly hidden platform and flattering slingback closure. It’s as if they were made for flirting! But that’s not all; with the price of this pair you can indulge in various café treats all season long.

Though I’m not an enthusiast of satin coated shoes, there is something unique about the Christian Louboutin “Greissimo” Knotted Satin Platform Pumps. The more I looked at some of my favorite celebrities wearing them, the more inclined I was to like them. Maybe it’s the element of the Louboutin name or rather the simplicity of the design. Even for those who find these alluring pumps very praiseworthy, the price and retailer are unknown. On that note, we have a steal that won’t break your wallet.

Gianni Bini “Ginger” Peep-Toe Platform Pumps

UPDATE (01/29/2012): If you prefer leather than satin, Gianni Bini has a fantastic Louboutin look-a-like for $89.99! Also available in various other colors & uppers.

Luichiny “Sure Thing” Satin Peep-toe Pumps

I really like the magenta color of these Luichiny “Sure Thing” Satin Peep-toe Pumps. Available in an array of colors, I think that these shoes will make a great addition to one’s wardrobe. There are a lot of elements to play around with, and the wide spectrum of hues makes it that much easier to incorporate a touch of color. Although these pumps are bold, I appreciate that they can also be dressed down for a more low-key look. Plus, these are priced under $100.

Prada is known for redefining what fashion truly is by following the theme of subtle luxury. Miu Miu, from the Prada fashion house, merely follows the same concept but with an avant garde flair. I found that the entire Miu Miu Fall collection was very versatile and most importantly super wearable. The Suede Peep-Toe Flared Pumps exhibit an architectural sculpted heel which is bold yet minimalistic, therefore making it wearable for every occasion. I love the way Taylor Swift wore these pumps; it’s classy yet modern and the red lip adds a touch of boldness. Who do you think wore Miu Miu best?

Gianni Bini “Daniella” Peep-Toe Platform Pumps

UPDATE (01/29/2012): Here a few more Miu Miu knockoffs, all under $80. By Gianni Bini. I really like the blue python print version for some reason.

Jean-Michel Cazabat “Shala” Platform Pumps

For one who is looking to indulge in the flared heel style, these Jean-Michel Cazabat “Shala” Platform Pumps are a remarkable look-a-like. These are chicly refined, and are essentially for any woman’s taste. It is very hard to distinguish the difference between these and the pumps by Miu Miu. Even by looking at the miniscule details, for one I can’t tell the difference. Aside from flaunting a similar style, these are much more affordable. Available in black or light grey suede.

KG “Caggie” Platform Peep-toe Pumps

Like the look-a-like above, these KG by Kurt Geiger “Caggie” Peep-toe Pumps also follow a similar concept. As a more affordable alternative, these are definitely less costly than the Miu Miu pumps as well as the Jean-Michel Cazabat pumps above. Available in black suede or nude leather.

Giuseppe Zanotti is the man broadening my horizon in terms of shoe design. Why? Because in my mind I’ve never put crystals together with the colorblocking trend until I’ve seen the fabulous Zanotti heel below and now I feel like it might be the only way to wear crystals or colorblocking on your shoes. But oh hey, have you seen that outrageous price tag of 1.300+? Well, Signore Zanotti, sorry, but that’s not my kind of shopping budget…

Heart Soul “Tazio” Colorblock Slingback Pumps

Now this is more like it! The colorblocking is different here, but the “inspiration” behind these rhinestoned Steve Madden slingbacks is pretty obvious, isn’t it? Need a fun party heel for the upcoming holidays? Might as well go for Madden’s budget version. Curious to see if more color options pop up during the next days.

I’ve always been kind of obsessed with everything red and sparkly. I call it the Dorothy complex. What’s not to love about a glitzy heel in the epitome of all statement colors? You can wear the most boring outfit; throw on a pair of red pumps and voilà you’re the center of attention. These red crystal embellished pumps by Alexander McQueen are haunting me. As if I didn’t have enough shoe obsessions already! Truly tempting, but the price is nothing but a nightmare.

Martinez Valero “Opal” Jeweled Peep-toe Pumps

Martinez Valero doesn’t have the biggest shoe portfolio, but oh boy does he deliver with the few styles he has in petto. Remember those gorgeous blue satin pumps à la Manolo Blahnik? Yeah, that was him and these gorgeous jeweled red peep-toe pumps are his newest creation. Not as delicate if compared to the real McQueen heels, but still a wonderful and budget-friendly alternative. There are only very few sizes left, but I just had to tell you about these gems. Make sure to check out both Zappos & Endless to see if they have your size stocked.
