Kitty cats, in the left corner we have Roberto Cavalli’s stunning Side-Slit Dress, the very same one seen gracing the form of Transformers star Megan Fox (LIKE); in the right corner feast your eyes upon ASOS’ Diamante Hoop Split Front Maxi Dress (TRY). (WHY?) Though the ambrosial ASOS piece isn’t as…revealing as the chichi Cavalli creation; at just $76.09, in comparison to the over-$3,000.00 asking price of the foxy original, it allows the frugal fashionista to indulge in all three shades – navy, teal, and coral – without going over the limit of her beloved AmEx!
Which role have you decided to undertake on this terrific Tuesday, kittens? Tightwad or spendthrift?
Fashionably yours!
Thanks to ASOS for the picture.

of course, I would take the ASOS. such great post girl, very useful for frugal fashionistas :)
ReplyDeleteIs it blasphemy to say that the Asos dress is even prettier? I'm soooo going for thrifty today! xoxo
ReplyDeleteI like the idea of a maxi dress, having a different look than we've been seeing. I remember back in the day when everyone was wearing maxi coats ... Wonder if they'll be making a comeback. I'll be frugal with this one, and go with the ASOS.
ReplyDeleteDefinitely ASOS. $3000 no freaking way! Great find, Erika!! :)
ReplyDeleteas always, you manage to find the most perfect steals. I love the asos version just as much as the roberto cavalli but think the dress might be a little too daring for anyone not blessed with megan fox's physique :)

Thank you for your nice cooment. I love the dress

Love, johanna
Loving the ASOS!! You always have the best finds :)
ReplyDeleteI would love to see you in this dress! I know you don't like to post your own pictures but you would look beautiful in everything. But, the fact that you don't post pictures of yourself sets you apart from other fashion bloggers. I'm just rambling so don't mind me. La di da!
ReplyDeleteamazing find darling! love the color so much!
ReplyDeleteASOS for sure!
ReplyDeleteAbsolutely gorgeous Asos find, darling!
ReplyDeleteI am going straight there!
xoxox,

I think I prefer the ASOS version; it looks much more wearable!
ReplyDeletethat dress is so sexy! i'd say neither though because there's no way in hell i'd be able to pull off that look :P
ReplyDeleteOmg omg! This dress is sooooo Jessica Rabbit! hehehe, I love them both, I have no clue which one to pick...probably the cheaper one because I like them both so I guess I would be happy with it :)
ReplyDeleteWhat an amazing find!!
ReplyDeleteASOS! It's more decent.
ReplyDeleteMeow! Both are outrageously sexy.
ReplyDeleteBut it doesn't get any sexier than that Cavalli version. She looks amaaaaazing!

What an awesome knock off! That Asos dress is incredible and such a great price. Love them both, but I'd definitely go with the cheaper one on this.

I like the Asos one, but not sure this dress is for me... a little sexy with the cut up the leg :)
ReplyDeleteThe ASOS dress looks great.
ReplyDeleteLOVVVVVVVVVVVVVVVVVVVVvveeee!
ReplyDelete♥
great post erika
ReplyDeletethe asos one doesn't quite measure up, so it'd have to be spendthrift for me!
ReplyDeleteI love the Cavalli one. It has a certain elegance to it!
ReplyDeleteI really like this knock-off. And since you probably won't be going to a ball of some sort in it..this summer, I think this version would probably travel great too.
ReplyDeleteYou're killing me! I'd have to go with Cavalli.
ReplyDeleteThat ASOS dress is a fab find!
ReplyDelete$3,000? That's crazy! I'm definitely going wit the ASOS dress!
ReplyDeleteI prefer the color of the Cavalli, but at $76, I can deal :)
ReplyDeleteASOS FTW!
ReplyDeletethat cavalli dress is a killer but i'm really liking that designer option!!!
ReplyDeleteFirst I need Megan Fox's bod...HA!
ReplyDeletehi daRling. i love the asos dress the most. its the most chic one- at least when it comes to the photos.. its more dressed. i love how you always find the similar look for less. you have such a good eye and must have a great memory too! not like me-- haha
ReplyDeletehave a wonderful week sweet
xx ediot
I am obsessed with ASOS so I will take their version!! Love the color of this dress!
ReplyDeleteWow, neither is my style, exactly--what with that slit. The Cavalli certainly is lustworthy, though!
ReplyDeleteDefinitely ASOS, but maybe in a different color!
ReplyDeleteWow, both great outfits, and the ASOS one looks just fab especially for the price!
ReplyDeletehttp://non-stop-fashion.blogspot.com/
I would choose the frugal version :)
ReplyDeletexoxo
I probably say this everytime: BUT YOU ARE AMAZING AT DISCOVERING CLOTHING LOOK ALIKES. (You really deserve a better title for that skill of yours).
ReplyDeleteNot so much my style, but I love the colour! Bright pink ftw!
Thanks so much for stopping by!

OOOOOOOOHHH my GAAAHHHH that dress is on ASOS! AHHH I WANT...okay I must calm down now lol
ReplyDeleteIt's not really my style; however, the Cavalli is positively STUNNING.

Whoaa!!! great find, I loved that dress she wore, thank you for sharing my dear!

ASOS, definitely. Megan looks really gorgeous in the other one though. I'm not sure I could pull off this style like she does!
ReplyDeleteI think the ASOS dress is classier looking too. That slit on the Cavalli dress is just a little high for my taste! Besides Megan Fox is the one wearing it! :) Great find.
ReplyDeleteThe ASOS is definitely a more realistic option, lol! The slit on Megan's is borderline Vegas showgirl!
ReplyDeleteI have to say that I do love Roberto Cavalli, Megan Fox just knows how to pull it off :)
ReplyDeleteKisses,
Stephanie
omg! they're identical!
ReplyDeleteOh my. You have done it again! These dresses are just SO gorgeous and what an incredible bargain for the ASOS dress! I'm speechless and I want it. :) You are simply amazing my dear.

Rachel
I'll waive the dress and just ask for Megan's body?!? Is that allowed?
ReplyDeleteASOS as its not my style :P but its gorgeous! Love your posts!
ReplyDeletexx
Great find hun!!! Luv your posts like these! Have a fab Wednesday xx
ReplyDeleteHmmm...I must go with the spending on this one - I love the color much more!
ReplyDeleteAsos is a lovely online store :)love it
ReplyDeleteoh my gosh...I love the celebrity twist. Megan looks devastating in that dress, but for $3k, does that come with her providing press access to her next movie premier? if not, the ASOS dress would work just fine :)
ReplyDeletethanks so much for the warm comments about my interview with Merina. glad you liked!!!
I think the ASOS dress is more discreet - still sexy but not as over the top (-:
ReplyDeleteThat's beautiful !
ReplyDeleteFrugal I am but If I could afford the real thing, I would get it! Beautiful dress! Great Post Erika!
ReplyDeleteI LOVE ASOS but I'm not sure how I feel about this style of dress.
ReplyDeletexo
Darling dress!
ReplyDeleteI just have to say how much I love Megan Fox in that look. I love everything about it - even the hair part! Have a great weekend :) xxSAS
ReplyDeleteLove the ASOS! The color is just a little more fun...and I'm all for altering it to make it a little, umm, sexier!
ReplyDeleteGreat find! ASOS dress loks good for the price but Roberto Cavalli is goergeous. I came across large selection of Cavalli dresses at discount prices at http://www.fashionstardome.com/
ReplyDeleteCheck it out!
