Bargain Styling

If the first word of that title doesn’t raise my stats I don’t know what would. Well I do but I won’t be going there anytime soon, hehehe. While reading Busy With Style’s post about the dotted look I had to stop myself from drooling all over my keyboard when I came upon this pair of shoes. Then I saw the price. It’s $161.99 from Shoes.com. You would think that would totally depressed a frugal fashionista like me who refuses to pay more than $50 for a pair of shoes but I felt otherwise. As a matter of fact, it inspired me to search the internet for an affordable version of this very HOT shoes design. And because I said from the beginning of this blog, I am a generous person, I’m going to share with you my fellow stylish bargain hunters my AWESOME finds. By the time you’re done reading this you’ll be naming your future little girls after me, *wink wink*.

I found this Pazzaz-22Heel canvas peep-toe heel from Amazon.com by QUPID. It’s on sale for $24.99. I love the white trim detail on this pair. And of course, the heels :).

Now if you don’t feel comfortable in going the heel route, you can definitely do the wedge. This open toe, sling back wedge for $44.95 looks very comfortably playful it would surely put you at ease even though you had reservations at first about wearing a pair of polka dot shoes.

Do NOT, please, wear any of these shoes with another polka dot item from your wardrobe. The trick to pulling off a polka dot look is wearing only 1 of it. So instead of searching for a pair of shoes to match a dress or an outfit, do a reversal. Any of these pairs would go nicely with a plain -meaning NO PRINT- dress or a solid color top and jeans get up. To help you out even more, imagine any of these pairs with my $5 Little Black Dress.

Now let’s get to the nitty gritty. You can either pay $161 for 1 pair, or buy both affordable versions for a total of $69.94. If you’re asking your monitor right now, “why would I buy 2 pairs?”, well, I’m not saying you should. I’m merely pointing out the deals you’ll be making. 2 pairs for under $100 or 1 pair for almost $200. The decision is yours. You know which one I would make :).
