The Look for Less: Nicole Richie's Maxi Dress

by Sarah 26. February 2010 04:35

We don't know about you, but we adore Nicole Richie. The starlet has transformed herself from a trashy reality TV star to a glamorous mother of two with great values and an even greater closet. Nicole is known for her bohemian look, which, despite being copied by many a celebrity, is individual to her and her only. Richie always knows how to make an outfit her own. Case in point, the look above. Her long blue silk maxi dress is pretty, but not particularly one of a kind. However, Nicole made the look her own by winterizing it with a pair of black ankle boots and a black leather jacket from her own Winter Kate collection. Get her look for less below!

C&C California Navy Blue Maxi Dress, $128 

Forever21 Faux Leather Jacket, $32.80

Forever21 Black Crinkled Ankle Boots, $27.80

The Look for Less: Chanel Spring 2010 Clogs

by Sarah 23. February 2010 06:38

We don't know about you, but aside from Karl Lagerfeld's Spring 2010 collection for Chanel, the last time we thought about clogs was during our time abroad in Amsterdam our junior year of college. Before that, it was when we saw the Dutch section of the "It's a Small World After All" ride at Disney World. In short, we don't exactly think of clogs as fashionable - but leave it to Karl to make them so. Lagerfeld sent these golden studded babies down his farm-themed runway for Spring 2010, and of course, there's already a look for less. We know, we know - clogs just aren't au courant - but, ma souers, that's where you're wrong. Once Karl says they're in, they're in. Hence, clogs are going to be all the rage for Spring. Get a great look for less with Jeffrey Campbell's Charli Platform Clog. JC's clogs retail for $178 at Free People, which we're betting is a fraction of the price of the real thing.

The Look for Less: Rodarte Sweater

by Sarah 25. January 2010 11:39

Rodarte is famous for their knitwear, and when the collection below hit the runway, stars and editors alike went nuts. Of course, the real thing isn't exactly affordable, so it was knocked off by Topshop, who did a pretty good job (see below). However, the Topshop version is long gone, and per usual, Forever21 has attempted (poorly) to knock it off themselves. Check out their effort here. It's not loosely knit, nor does it have the same color scheme, but it's definitely influenced by Rodarte. At only $30, it's a heck of a lot cheaper than the real thing. A quick EBay search reveals you can still find a few of the Topshop sweaters - type in "Topshop Rodarte" in the search field and they'll come up. However, if you prefer something influenced by the original and not a direct copy, the Forever21 version is for you!

The Look for Less: Newbark Gold Lame Leather Shoes

by Sarah 19. August 2009 13:46

We have to admit, we've got a pair of these TOMS shoes in gold glitter, and we've worn them to death. They're the most comfortable things in the world, and we've been dying to share our obsession with the world. 

Imagine our surprise when we come across these Newbark Love Lame Leather Shoes in Gold. They retail for a staggering $350, and they're pretty much a high-priced knockoff of the TOMS version. The Newbark's are great, but there's no need to spend the money. Save it for a bag! A nicer pair of shoes - but there's no need to drop almost $400 on something you can get for $48. Truth be told, the TOMS are probably more comfortable anyway!

Vanessa Hudgens has been making the press rounds for her new movie Bandslam, and she's ensuring that she looks good doing it. Here she is in a gorgeous plum colored ruffled Plastic Island dress. You might not be able to afford or find Vanessa's actual dress, but this one from Forever21 is a pretty good match! It's got the same ruffled look at the collar, and the color is a perfect plum 10!

The Look for Less: Anita Ko Pyramid Jewelry

by Sarah 5. August 2009 05:01

Thanks to fashion goddess Rachel Zoe, we've fallen in love with Anita Ko's stylish yet edgy pyramid jewelry pieces. Ranging from bangles to rings, necklaces to earrings, these Egyptian inspired gold and silver jewels have us dying to rock it out like Pharoah this fall. Sadly, however, at $3600/pop for a bangle and $315 for a pair of earrings, Ko's work is pretty unattainable.

Thankfully, Rachel Zoe, ever the business woman, knows her audience. She knows that not all of us can afford to spent $300 on a pair of earrings. She's provided her readers with a great look for less - click here to purchase the Ettika Pyramid Ring, which retails for only $33. Much more reasonable, no?

The Look for Less: Charlotte Ronson Dress

by Sarah 16. July 2009 13:20

Check out this great find from FabSugar!

Says Fab: I adore Charlotte Ronson's quaint designs. Her attention to detail is impeccable, and I love her quirky style. Take for instance this Flare Corset Dress ($367). Don't you love the bustier cut and zipper details? I do. Perfect for an upcoming evening BBQ, but my wallet's screaming no!

This Forever 21 Zip Front Party Dress ($23) is just as fun and doesn't come with a hefty price tag. The halter strap is a throwback touch and at that cheapo price, I won't have to worry about spilling beans on my new dress.

The Look for Less: Balmain Fringed Sandal

by Sarah 6. July 2009 05:29

We've got fellow fashionista FabSugar to thank for this fabulous find! Everyone wants a piece of Balmain, and these fringed sandals are no exception. But with a hefty price tag of $375 (marked down from a whopping $750!), they're a bit out of our budget price range. However, like any good shoe, they've already been knocked off - not so good for Christopher Decarnin, great for us sale hunting divas.

This MIA Pocahontas sandal is even cuter than the Balmain, if I do say so myself. And for $30, it's a style steal! Scoop yours up today!

The Look for Less: Givenchy Cut-Out Sandals

by Sarah 16. June 2009 04:43

If you watched the spinoff episode of Gossip Girl this past season, where we got a peek into Lily Rhodes' early life (played by Brittany Snow), you probably saw those hot pink Givenchy sandals Brittany donned onscreen. They were to die for. If you're having trouble remembering, click here to jog your memory. These babies are totally covetable, and even though they're on sale, down from almost $800 to $471, they're still way pricey.

Enter Jeffrey Campbell, king of shoegasm knockoffs. These pink roller sandals aren't a perfect match by any means, but the color is close, and the cutouts are almost identical to the Givenchy's. They're a great look for less, as they're neither a direct copy nor a a poor representation of the original pair.

Click here to buy, for $99. That's way easier on your budget than $471, no?
