Christian Louboutin's satin slides with bow originally retailed for $550 at Saks, but are currently sold out.These slides by RSVP are very similar to the Louboutin version for a lot less cash. The pink version shown below has very limited sizes left, but is on sale for $58. Click here to purchase. Champagne satin (also pictured below) is on sale for $70.39 and has more size availability, click here to purchase those.



After writing up the post with the items Julie sent (thanks again!), I stumbled across these Pelle Moda slides at Endless. They are currently on sale for $60.01 and are also a great alternative to the Louboutin version (they also come in a patent version - available in coral, black, or blush for $70.76 or $70.50 depending on the color). Click on either of the photos below to purchase.

These Bogus platforms by Stuart Weitzman originally retailed for $325 but seem to be sold out online in the blac.


This version by RSVP reminded me of the Weitzman's above, although these do vary because they have an ankle strap. If you like the style of these inspired by sandals, you can purchase them on sale at Zappos for $59.50 (also available in silver, red, or pink satin). Click on the photo below to purchase.

These python pumps by Christian Louboutin retail for $995 at Net-A-Porter.


If you're trying to stick to a budget, but are desperate for some python (print) pumps...these RSVP heels might work. They retail for a much more budget friendly $70 and you can click the photo below to purchase.
