Cash Or Credit: Jimmy Choo Gleny Sandals vs. Steve Madden Nanciee Sandals

OohJazzy — Mon, 22 Mar 2010 15:15:06 +0000

If you checked out Fantasy Files Friday, you saw the snakeskin version of the Jimmy Choo Gleny Sandal. Browsing through sites, I came across Steve Madden Nanciee Sandals. We all k now Steve Madden is known for ripping off other people’s designs design-inspired looks and I can’t say that I’m upset because I really liked the Jimmy Choo Gleny Sandals. Let’s be real. I would never pay $995.00 for them so seeing a similar version for only $79.95 made me light up. The subtle difference between the two shoes is the 5″5″ heel on the Steve Madden sandals vs. the 4.7″ on the Jimmy Choo sandals. Maybe it’s just me, but the zipper accent seems to standout more on the Jimmy Choo Gleny Sandals.

So, I have to ask, what will it be: Cash Or Credit? Be sure to leave your two cents in the comment section. *thinking* If your budget won’t allow it, I’m not mad at Steve Madden.

We all know Steve Madden has always been inspired by other designers when designing his shoe collection. So it’s only right that other designers be inspired by him. The Steven Madden Trickked Pumps were definitely an inspiration for the Go Jane Suede Rosetta T Strap Pumps. When looking at both I can barely tell the difference, I noticed a few things like the color is little different but the only real difference is the price. Could you believe GoJane only wants $19.70 and Steve Madden wants $129.95. So ladies, are you going for the original or the inspired version? Be sure to comment and let me know what you think.

You Remind Me: Christian Louboutin Supra Fifre 120 Thigh High Boots and Go Jane Faux Suede Military Boots

When I first saw these Go Jane Faux Suede Military Boots the first thing that popped in my mind were the Christian Louboutin Supra Fifre 120 Thigh High Boots. Clearly the Christian Louboutin boots were pretty popular as they’re no longer available for purchase. If you were eying them, then look no further. Check out the Go Jane Faux Suede Military Boots as they’re pretty design-inspired. Sure, you’re missing out on the signature red sole and the Go Jane version isn’t thigh high, but for a price that any one of us could afford, why not?

They feature columned button trim at the front, linked together with thin, bungee cord style elastic stretch straps, side zipper closure and a towering 4 1/4″ heel. Be sure to leave your two cents and let me know what you think.

When it comes to fashion, I’m the one my friends call on, but sometime even I have problems. I’m the girl who goes over the top with accessories because sometimes, I just never know when enough is enough. During my weekend shopping, I found the super cute Simply Vera Vera Wang Silver-Tone Box Chain Bib Necklace which would add just the right about of flavor to spice up an outfit. As I proceeded to shop, I found the Vera Wang Rhinestone & Lace Bib Necklace, though cute its way out of my price range especially for such a “trendy” accessory.

Are you willing to give up all your nickels and dimes just to accessorize? Be sure to leave your two cents in the comment section.

Cash Or Credit: Alexander McQueen Black Skull Zipper Booties vs. bebe Laurie Zip Cutout Pumps

They say imitation is the sincerest form of flattery. I think there’s truth to that, granted you’re not completely copycatting someone’s artistic expression. From Alexander McQueen designs, lots of inspiration shoes are born. Steve Madden, Bakers and bebe are among a group of labels that always manage to have shoes noticeably similar to McQueen designs.

Let me say that I think the Bebe Laurie Zip Booties are super cute. There’s no doubt that they were inspired by the Alexander McQueen Skull Zip Bootie. Now I know most women want the “real thing”, but I prefer the Bebe Laurie Zip Booties. They’re less expensive and make a bolder statement.

The Bebe Laurie Zip Cutout Pumps are also available in white. I’ve never really had a use for white shoes, but these babies are pretty smokin’. Check out the side zip detailing on the 5 1/2″ heels.
