Real vs. Steal – Giuseppe Zanotti E20016 Slingback Platform Pumps

by Juliana on February 2, 2012

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.

Real vs. Steal – Christian Louboutin Une Plume Sling Cork Wedges

by Velicia Hill on January 28, 2012

UPDATE: This post has been updated on January 28, 2012. Scroll down to see the new add.

A simple summertime wedge is sometimes all a girl needs to be happy. Now what’s shocking is that this simple wedge is by Christian Louboutin – the Liberace of shoemakers! No crazy 7 inch wedge. No crazy accouterments. Just a nice pinkish/mauve patent leather shoe. If only one could “simply” find $595 to pay for this much simplicity. But oh well, how do the French say – c’est la vie!

Steve Madden “WISSPER” Slingback Wedge Sandals

Now let me introduce you to the Robin Hood of the shoe world, Mr. Steve Madden. Bringing (and copying) designer heels for less and giving them to the poor (yet oh-so-fab) people! Once again, he doesn’t disappoint with his “WISSPER” slingback wedge. The only truly detectable difference is the thicker slingback strap and buckle. Other than that, for $29.99 (sale price!) this is a great steal. Available in black, teal, fuchsia and white patent as well as black suede, natural linen, navy fabric and leopard.

Real vs. Steal – Giuseppe Zanotti I10202 Crystallized Colorblock Platform Slingbacks

by Irina on January 27, 2012

UPDATE: This post has been updated on January 27, 2012. Scroll down to see the new add.

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…

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.

Real vs. Steal – Christian Louboutin Fine Bretelle Canvas & Snakeskin Slingbacks

by Velicia Hill on December 25, 2011

Fine. I’ll just say it – this “Fine Bretelle” slingback by Christian Louboutin is not the finest heel to me. But then again what do I know; celebs and other deep pocket chicks snatched it up. For it is SOLD OUT! But have no fear of getting your hands on this heel. The great imitator, aka Ms. Ivanka Trump, has copied this heel to near perfection [really?]. See for yourself below.

Real vs. Steal – Badgley Mischka Kiss Kiss Slingback Glitter Pumps

by Velicia Hill on September 23, 2011

As I always say, “A little glitter never hurt nobody!” – That’s why the designing duo of Badgley Mischka totally gets a double dose of airy French kisses for these adorable glitter pumps. My only concern? The rounded toe shape. Looks like it’ll give you some much needed or unneeded (your call) toe cleavage… hmph?
