Tightwad Tuesday: Stuart Weitzman Hiup Over the Knee Suede Boots at a Bargain

Kitty cats, to the left we have Stuart Weitzman’s saucy Hiup Over the Knee Suede Boots; to the right we have Alloy’s beautiful Brigitte Boot.

Though the blissful Brigitte is constructed out of faux suede, and features a 23” shaft and 4 ½” covered wedge, in comparison to the real suede making up the Weitzman wonder, not to mention the 26” shaft and 3” covered wedge; for the enticing asking price of just $56.90, as opposed to the $798.00 price tag of the original, they are every bit as magnificent for the budget babe’s fall wardrobe – and retain the ability to fold up or down should you decide that you’re not in the mood for an over the knee style!

Which role have you decided to undertake on this terrific Tuesday, kittens? Tightwad or spendthrift?


Fashionably yours!

  5. Over the knee boots.. they have a soft spot with me... I really can't choose on this one because I like the SW pair more...

  6. I love tall boots, and I'd go for the Alloy here. They look a bit less fitted to the leg, and so maybe have a little more room to tuck skinny jeans into?

  7. leave it to me to love the pair that costs $798!

  29. Hmm, I'm not crazy about the buckle on the Alloy ones. So even if their is a crazy price difference, I would prefer the Stuart Weitzman.

    ReplyDelete

  35. Wasn't sure if over the knee boots would make it another season, but they are alive and "kicking" I see :)

  37. Even though they look practically identical, I'm sure the suede on the SW is smooth like butter!

    ReplyDelete
  38. Ugghhhh, Erika, you just reminded me I need to start preparing for fall. I am so sad for the onslaught of cold weather!

    ReplyDelete
  39. well I am bias b/c I have a pair of Stuart Weitzman over the knee all leather boots from this past season and they are the best thing I bought all year! Love them with leggings and skinny jeans.

    ReplyDelete
  40. For that price, I'll take Alloy! Although I hear SW's are very comfy...

    ReplyDelete
  41. It's all about the High-Lo theory. Im all for the 56.90 pricetag on the Alloy boots - great find!

    ReplyDelete
  42. I couldn't tell the two apart if I tried my damnedest. Genius find, as usual.

    ReplyDelete
  43. The Alloy are really cute.. I would def get them

    ReplyDelete
  44. I think this one's the only one so far that I've commented on Tightwad Tuesdays that I like the bargain way better than the other one! Good one, girl!

    ReplyDelete
  45. As much as I love this 1st pair, the Alloy boots are amazing for the price! I always shop at Alloy.com and always find great deals! I love it.

  47. i think boots are always worth extra money but at 800 bucks... gotta go the cheaper route!!! But gosh, I love the first ones.

    ReplyDelete
  48. they don't flatter me, so none for me:))

    ReplyDelete
  49. Oh Erika, what a great find! I've been wrecking my brain about over-the-knee boots forever. I thought I decided against them, but for $57.-.... VERY TEMPTING!

    ReplyDelete
  50. Hi hon! I could never afford the Weitzmans but I prefer them- pretty much because I'm not big into buckles so the buckle on the Alloy boots are throwing me off! xo, mel

    ReplyDelete
  51. Alloy for me ! So cool and the prices are just so different . Wow .

    ReplyDelete
  52. I can settle for the faux because I don't really wear OTK boots here in Manila. I do love the style of this boots. :-)
