These slides by Giuseppe Zanotti retail for $550 at Barney's (second photo from Jake).



Nine West has a similar look on their site right now. The heel is shorter, but they are a great alternative if you don't want to spend $550 on the Zanotti slides. They originally retailed for $120 but are on sale for $69.99. Click the photo below to purchase (also available in other colors).


*Update - 8/9/09* - The Nine West lookalike of these Zanotti shoes are long gone (this post is originally from summer of 2008) but reader Julie sent me this Paris Hilton shoe that is a great alternative. It retails for $99 (also available in cream) and you can click on the photo below to purchase.

These Givenchy sandals (recently spotted on Vanessa Hudgens) retailed for $695 but are completely sold out online.


There are two options as a look for less and the first is by Guess. They retail for $96.90 (on sale) at Endless (also available in a dark red patent). Click on the photo below to purchase.


The second option is the Nine West Jamie, which is currently on sale for $59.99 (also available in black leather or white). They have an extra strap, but they're a little less expensive than the Guess version (so it depends on your budget which will be a better shoe for you!)

These great shoes retail for $140 at Banana Republic and also come in a nude color.


If you want to save yourself a little $$, try this version by Nine West. It doesn't come in the same colors as the Banana version, and the heel is thinner, but it's a great alternative if you're on a budget. It is on sale for $39.99 at Piperlime and also comes in navy.
