Stitched

Life is funny sometimes. A few days ago one of our readers, Corrine, mailed us and asked whether we were able to identify a pair of nude open-toe pumps Miranda Kerr was wearing to an event recently.

As a shoe addict, this was not a difficult task and I instantly recognized the stitched pumps which were Miu Miu. The nude version was already sold out everywhere, so I tried to find some good alternatives for Corrine, but no real luck. That was until yesterday when I found the perfect pair of knockoffs for the black patent version.

Celebrities Love Miu Miu

Victoria Beckham was the first to sport the cute Miu Miu peep-toes back in March. The lovely Drew Barrymore wore the slingback version in red to Live with Regis and Kelly and Victoria’s Secret angel Miranda Kerr is wearing her nude Miu Mius to almost every public event she attends at the moment.

BCBGeneration “Doriel” Stitched Pumps

Look at these Miu Miu knockoffs by BCBGeneration. Don’t they look almost identical? I accidentally stumbled upon these yesterday when I was randomly browsing the web for something totally different. So glad I found these. They look amazing for knockoffs and they even have the stitching on the heel which I LOVED about the Miu Mius.

Other color options include black, grey, plum and taupe suede at some retailers and at $110/pair they will save you quite a bunch of cash, too! Yay!

Finding a good pair of jeans is one of the toughest quests I have ever been confronted with as a shopper. It’s so hard to find a jeans that you feel comfortable in AND which looks good on you. At least for me. I always restrain from buying jeans online, but these Balmain biker jeans would be clearly an exception if they weren’t out of my budget.

Bebe Stitched Knee Skinny Jean

Bebe was once again heavily inspired by Balmain. This jeans is not a knockoff per sé because the stitching on the knees differs slightly and the zip detail is on the outside, but it’s obviously an attempt to recreate Balmain’s iconic rocker/biker jeans.
