I can just imagine these dainty yet vibrant suede pumps by Christian Louboutin as part of the incredibly chic wardrobe of Doris Day’s Character, Jan Morrow, in the 1959 movie, “Pillow Talk“. She would have paired them with a matching bag and a lovely camel suit and coat. But coordinating our accessories isn’t really the style anymore, and with what you’re spending on this pair, you probably need to maximize their mileage. Not all that convinced of how often you’d wear these but love them dearly? Then snatch up our very cool steal below!

Ivanka Trump “Amoro” Pumps
I already have plans to wear these statement heels by Ivanka Trump with my jeans and white oxford skirt, my navy pencil skirt and light blue blouse, and my grey cocktail dress (which is a bit more unexpected than black)! This particular color is quite transferable, seeing how well it goes with the classic neutral shades in most of our closets. But the best part is the price! This style comes in an array of different colors and finishes, so go ahead and get a neutral pair as well.

J.Crew “Mona” Suede Pumps
One of our loyal readers, Patience, has given us heads-up about another great Louboutin alternative which is available at J.Crew. The “Mona” pump is a little more expensive, but the fun colors (e.g. yellow) make more than up for it I think.

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 $94.99 are worth every penny.

And here we go with a second “Style Blogger Look 4 Less”-feature for a look I spotted on the adorable Wendy from Wendy’s Lookbook a few days ago. As usual I loved her look head-to-toe, especially the cute floral shorts and cap-toe pumps, and hence decided to recreate it but with a more budget-friendly approach. Also our look is less peachy and more monochrome than Wendy’s, but I still think we hit the right tone here.

This blue suede platform pump is probably one of my absolute favorites from Giuseppe Zanotti. I love the sky-high heel, the shape, the vibrant blue suede and for a Zanotti shoe this pump isn’t even too expensive at $650. Of course, still too pricey for my own budget…
