If I ever want to add a dash of sex appeal, I usually reach for a pair of sky-high heels and instantly I feel transformed. But these Alexander Wang Metallic Sandals are in a league all their own. They are one part mysterious and two parts siren, and how gorgeous is that metallic rose gold? Unfortunately, they are completely sold out, but you can snag a similar pair for a fraction of the original $495 price tag. Check out the steals below!

Speaking of a super popular shoe, it seems that these Jimmy Choo Greta Platform Sandals have made quite the statement among celebs. I love everything that this shoe has to offer, especially the metallic hue and the towering heel. I can’t even decide who wore these platform sandals best; everyone looks so fashionable and posh. Who do you think wore Jimmy Choo best? Surprisingly though… these glamorous platforms are not sold out yet so if you want to, or have $1.095 then these would make an amazing splurge. Otherwise, scroll down to see the fabulous steal below.

Sergio Zelcer “Osima” Platform Sandals

Thanks to Sergio Zelcer, the “Osima” Platform Sandals practically dupe the Jimmy Choo design above. These shoes definitely fit into the category of “glamour”, and are very elegant for a special event. Though I love the solid tones, the tie dye options add a certain zest and have more of a casual look. Available in gold, silver, and orange and blue tie dye.

Signore Giuseppe Zanotti, te amo! Or, to be a bit more specific: I love your shoes! Especially those extreme platform wedges from your S/S 2011 collection. We’ve already shown you the peep-toe version of this wedge and today we’re going to show you a great Zanotti alternative for the equally gorgeous closed toe version.

Sam Edelman “Quinn” Wedge Pumps

UPDATE (09/09/2011): Squeal! I just stumbled upon the perfect Zanotti look-a-like by Sam Edelman. The heel height on these here is somewhat lower, but I actually prefer them that way because it makes the shoes more wearable and less dangerous imo. Available in red or black suede.

Wild Pair “Lola WP” Wedge Pumps

So, how great are these Zanottis on a budget by Wild Pair? Quite spot-on I’d say, even though I would love them more if they had kept the suede platform. But at $95 I’ll just keep my mouth shut and put them into my cart ASAP (sizes are already starting to sell out, so you better hurry to make your order). Available in red or black suede.

GWQEKJGQWDJKGB! Sorry, I think I just fainted from looking at these stunning booties by Burberry Prorsum. As you can see from the shearling-lining they’re from the current F/W 2010 collection (the one everyone is copying right now). Seriously, it can’t get much better than these if you think design meets function. They keep your feet warm and make you look like you just ran out of a Vogue photoshoot. Soooo good! And despite the whopping price of $1.095 these keep selling out. If I had the funds, I, too, would indulge and blow my budget by buying just these shoes and nothing else this fall.

ALDO “Straugter” Ankle Boots

UPDATE (10/16/2010): It’s official. Burberry’s buckled shearling booties are definitely the “It” shoe of 2010. This is the 9th Burberry inspired alternative I’ve found and I have a feeling it isn’t the last one. Available in black or brown.

Steve Madden “BROADWY” Booties

Granted, it was only a matter of time until Steve Madden releases his own Burberry interpretation because he obviously can’t miss out on the biggest trend this fall. So ta-daaaaaa, here you go! The heel on the “BROADWY” ankle boots is sturdier compared to the stiletto-shape of the Burberry booties and they also don’t have the cozy shearling-lining, but aside from that they look very much the same. These are a little pricey at $149.95, but I have a feeling that these will fly off the shelves regardless.

Dolce Vita “Josh” Shearling Buckle Booties

UPDATE (10/16/2010): If you’re willing to spend some cash to get your Burberry fix, then Dolce Vita might be what you were looking for. Their upscale knockoff “Josh” is no identical twin, but still a great alternative.

Topshop “AMORE” Shearling Ankle Boots

If you’re serious about the shearling, but don’t want to spend that much, how about these ankle boots from Topshop then? They’re the least look-a-like-worthy of all the three options, but the Burberry influences are still very visible here, don’t you agree?

While Alexander Wang‘s Fall 2009 collection didn’t impress me much in terms of clothes I must admit I am quite fond of these buckled pointy ankle boots which were also a part of this collection. The other shoe styles were a bit too masculine for me, but the “Hanne” boot had just the right amount of edginess and badass punk. Sadly, they are also quite pricey at more than $1.200 a pair.

Jeffrey Campbell knows how to satisfy a fashionista’s craving for top notch style but without the designer price tag. His latest style incorporates an almost identical version of Alexander Wang’s Hanne booties mixed with a Camilla Skovgaard sole.
