If you’ve ever checked out the big-name fashion blogs, or wandered through the designer shoe department at Nordstrom, you’ve probably seen a pair of Valentino Rockstuds. They come in all different colors, in heels and flats, and they are absolutely gorgeous.
Unfortunately, they cost so much that you may have to forgo food for the month to pay for them — and singing the State Farm jingle probably won’t help. We’re talking more than $1,000 here, y’all.
Luckily for those of us with deep shoe lust who also want to make rent, Banana Republic has created a similar pair for a much more palatable price (plus, they have sales frequently). No, they aren’t QUITE as fabulous. But you might actually be able to afford a new dress to go with them.
If you’re more into ballet flats than stilettos, check out this fab pair from Zara. And, if sandals are more your style, check out these beauties. They’re still pretty expensive for sandals, but you won’t have to sell your first-born to afford them.
