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!

There’s been quite a buzz around Brian Atwood’s diffusion line B Brian Atwood which features shoe styles half the price of his signature line. Most of the shoes are around the $300-350 mark which, unfortunately, is still a bit out of reach for me, but I might get lucky to get my BA shoe fix when those B Brian Atwood styles go on sale/clearance. Which, again unfortunately, sure won’t happen with these mixed metal platform pumps. Aren’t they just absolutely gorgeous? The shape is close to perfect and the metallic colors in this case complement each other rather than clashing with each other. Instant shoe love!

Talk about statement shoes! These sparkly Miu Miu peep-toe booties are a definite conversation starter with their fun and flirty disco vibe. The lovely suede cross-straps make them look vintage and the shape of the glittered heel invites the wearer to feel whimsical yet confident with every step. Due to popular demand by celebrities and trend-setters everywhere, this pair sold out almost immediately upon debut. But not to worry, you can still be the Dancing Queen at the party by wearing the amazing steal version below.

To Be Announced “Alvarez” Glitter Booties
Getting excited by this great look-a-like by To Be Announced? All you need is a sleek black jumpsuit and you’ll be turning heads everywhere you go in these new standout kicks. They are still an investment at $199.95, but if you already have the basics and want a wild card to add to the mix, these are definitely it. Here’s a tip: If you love this style but are not sure about the color, choose a pair in midnight black and wear them with opaque black tights and a cute mini dress. Colors available are silver coral, midnight black and silver yellow.

There’s something really fun about this household heather grey sweatshirt by Elizabeth and James gone glam. Yes, I realize it’s essentially a sweatshirt but look at it! I love it with a pair of fitted jeans, however I wouldn’t necessarily pair it with your old chucks that have been rotting in the back of your closet. Pair it with a nice pair of black pumps to bring out more of a glam look rather than a slouchy “I haven’t had my first cup of coffee“-look that Dakota Fanning is sporting. So, if $312 is a bit steep for you we have another great solution!

Theme Sequin Sweater
UPDATE (11/14/2011): Ten months after posting the first steal, I’ve came across another great E&J sequin sweater look-a-like by Theme. Although significantly darker than the original I think it’s still a great alternative and a lot cheaper, too!

Ella Moss “Majesty” Sequin Sweatshirt Top
I think the Ella Moss version for less than $100 fits the bill! It’s almost exactly the same look besides a little bit of difference in sleeve length and it comes in grey or black. I would have to say this Ella Moss sequined sweatshirt is superb in following the look and not hurting our wallets.

This glamoruous heel by Christian Louboutin is called “Very Mix”. Can I just say I desperately would love to be in the mix and mingle in these babies! But at almost $4.000 – just not going to happen. Dammit, why do the rich chicks get to have all the fun? Thank God, Jehovah, Allah, Buddha (very p.c. around here) for knockoffs. Now we all can get into the mix with the Loubi look-a-like below.

Promise “Manchi” Studded Platform Pumps
Ask and you shall receive! “Manchi” by Promise has totally delivered with this studded platform. OK, so not as encrusted with crystals as the Louboutin, but the spikes will do. And hey, for $60 you get these other colors as well: gold and black/bronze.
