Real vs. Steal – Louis Vuitton SC Satchel Bag

August 22, 2018

I am usually not too fond of Louis Vuitton bags. I especially dislike their monogrammed range because I just don’t see the appeal of having a brand’s logos plastered all over my bag looking like a tacky advertisement. However, Sofia Coppola designed a bag for Louis Vuitton that got me obsessed! The SC bag is pure and simple elegance; I absolutely adore the minimalistic design and the no-fuss attitude it exudes. It’s such a beautiful bag in such a beautiful color! But, oh boy, is this bag expensive! $4.650? Like seriously, Louis Vuitton?

Celebs such as Kate Moss, Miranda Kerr, Alexa Chung, Kirsten Dunst, Reese Witherspoon and Rosie Huntington-Whiteley have all been spotted carrying a Louis Vuitton SC Satchel Bag.

A.L.C. Small Lucas Duffel Bag

Update (05/09/2015): If you’re looking for a really high-quality LV look for less alternative, A.L.C.’s “Lucas” duffel satchel might be a good fit. The design is very similar to the SC bag and I bet the craftmanship is superb, too, but you’d have to spend $895 on this beauty. Which, however, is only about 1/5 compared to the price of the real deal, so overall it’s still a great deal.

Real vs. Steal – Rag & Bone Classic Newbury Suede Booties

March 21, 2016

So I know I already raved quite a bit about Rag & Bone‘s Classic Newbury Booties (last time here), but a few days ago I discoreved this lustworthy burgundy suede version and have been obsessed with these classic and minimalistic ankle boots ever since! So much so that I am seriously contemplating biting the bullet and actually get the real deal! I know I’d get a lot of wear out of these because I am weirdly attracted to ankle boots lately and wear them almost daily. Decisions, decisions.

Real vs. Steal – Maison Martin Margiela Open Toe High Heel Booties

June 17, 2015

The curved heel has been making its appearance quite often among stylish footwear lately, adding a futuristic yet minimalistic flair. Not to spare, Maison Martin Margiela brings us a common yet inspiring open toed bootie with a twist. His take on such a popular silhouette makes this design so easy to wear; the versatility goes on without an end just like the price tag. Beautiful, yes, but also extremely pricey. That’s why we have a steal below that is just as gorgeous as it is affordable!

Celebrity Look 4 Less – Beyoncé Knowles’ Marc Jacobs Polka Dot Two-Tone Dress

November 27, 2012

It seems the fabulous Beyoncé Knowles was spotted wearing a Marc Jacobs Fall 2011 Two-Tone Polka Dot Knit Dress on the streets of Paris looking ever so chic. What really makes this ensemble work for her is the overall silhouette – the pencil skirt and blouse definitely give off the perfect sexy-librarian vibe. But what really pulls a look like this together is the effortless looking updo, romantic accessories, and gorgeous textured bag to add a bit of luxury and mystery to the equation. Ready to recreate this look for yourself? Start with a top and skirt with the same pattern, but in different colors and don’t be afraid to mix and match accessories to keep from looking too tightly wound. In this case, it’s quite refreshing to see a few hairs out of place. Add to that peep-toe pumps and some bohemian-style earrings, and you have an outfit that looks both young and sophisticated. When in Paris, after all.
