Dolls, to your left feast your eyes upon Rock & Republic’s ravishing Nika Studded Pumps, the very same ones seen “rocked” by many of your favorite celebrities – from AnnaLynne McCord and Drew Barrymore to Rihanna, Twilight’s Kristen Stewart, and Gossip Girl’s newest addition, Miss Katie Cassidy; to the right take a gander at Luichiny’s luscious Fanta See Platform Pump.Though the fabulous Fanta See’s are made out of a synthetic suede-like upper, unlike the true suede of Nika; for a mere $64.99, as opposed to the $295.00 required to add Nika to your wardrobe, Fanta See is just as capable of helping you to channel your inner vampy coquette – at a fraction of the price!
Will Rock & Republic tempt you into being a big spender, or will Luichiny inspire you to save?

Erika, these studded pumps are exactly the same! I'd absolutely go for the cheaper one. I love the rich color and edgy look of the silver heel. I can picture myself wearing these with an otherwise standard LBD to holiday parties (is it weird that I'm already thinking of the holidays??).

Dang, the cheaper ones are just like that way overpriced ones. And I love a good stiletto, sexy!
ReplyDeleteWhat fabulous shoes! Such a great find, Erika! I'll definitely save some cash and go for the Luichiny version.
ReplyDeleteSuper sexy!! LOVE them!
ReplyDeleteSo similar!! I like the dark pink best but I think the red would go with more :) xx
ReplyDeleteUm, hello, perfect holiday statement shoe. The cheaper ones are fab!

Both of them are so sexy, but I would definitely have to go with the cheaper pair.
ReplyDeleteBoth are TOTALLY sexy!
ReplyDeleteSo exciting..love the inexpensive ones.
ReplyDeleteWhat a very cool color. Never seen anything quite like these.
ReplyDeleteYes, studded shoes are the coolest!
ReplyDeleteFAB find!
ReplyDeleteI love that I actually prefer the steal bc I like that color red better! When does that EVER happen?!
ReplyDeleteI just did your blog interview darling, check it out!!
I have to go with the Rock & Republic because their shoes are so comfy!
ReplyDeletewww.FashionSnag.com
I'd save and get the Luichiny shoes!
ReplyDeleteThese are crazy good. I prefer man-made ultra suede anyway and make a lot of bags with this fabric because it holds up so much better than real suede. I may have to get a pair of these!

You definitely have a way of finding very similiar pieces for very different prices.
ReplyDeleteNot my style of shoe but red is HOT.
Gorgeous shoes!!
ReplyDelete♥ Leia
Red heels: Yes Please!!! They're both amazing!! I don't know which ones to choose.
ReplyDeleteI'm in LOVE with Rock & Republic! Love the thrift find though. It's awesome. I'd buy both! Haha.
ReplyDeleteWow, those are pretty much the same shoe!
ReplyDeletewow, they are soooo identical! couldn't even tell the difference!

I'm all about saving money over owning brand names, unless there is a huge difference between quality! I can't do the stiletto though unfortunately :(
ReplyDeletexoxo Maria
looove those shoes :)
ReplyDeleteDefinitely, beautiful..just not for me.
ReplyDeleteLove Luichiny’s version!
ReplyDeleteAt that level of similarity, I'd feel stupid to not go for the Fanta See! Very cute shoes.

ReplyDeleteThese two are so similar! Equally in love with both.
ReplyDeleteGreat find, these are some fabulous shoes. So much for changing the design 30% so you don't get in trouble. Does this look like 30% to you? xo Mish
ReplyDeletehi darling! tHanKs for that sweet comment you left me! i was addicted to studs a year ago-- but now its been too much for me, its about to pass..its how i do with everything.. once i find something i like i either overdo it or overeat it.. haha
ReplyDeletexx
wow, they're practically the same! i'd definitely go for the luichiny ones!
ReplyDeleteThose shoes are one word: SASSY
ReplyDeleteLove 'em! Great find! ♥
Those are shoes for a rock star!
ReplyDeleteThese shoes are SICK...and I mean that in the most Rachel Zoe kind of way! LOVE! DIE! BANANAS!!!
ReplyDeleteI actually like the rich red of the R&R ones so...
I think on this one I'm gonna have to say go BIG or go HOME! ;)

These shoes are SO hot.. and the Luichiny ones look exactly like the R&R pair! xo

Bargain totally does the trick with this pair!
ReplyDeleteseeing as how the original are not too, too pricey..I think I'd splurge!

ReplyDeleteI made it to the 3rd line and then sorta stopped. Ahem, tried to google AnnaLynne McCord wearing those stylish pumps and then after a while returned to where I started from lol. Great post, Erika! those shoes are both red hot fire :)
ReplyDeleteWow, these are sick! I love them. I could really see Kristen Stewart rocking a pair.
ReplyDeleteoh wow loves these pumps, totally lipstick rocker chic.
ReplyDeleteToo great for words! The colour and the vibe!
ReplyDeleteTotally like the knockoffs better! The color is way more vibrant!
ReplyDeletewow these look so similar!! I love this studded look on the heels!
ReplyDeleteEspecially since I already have that shade of pink suede shoes, I would totally go for the Luichiny shoes!! Even though right now I think I'm supposed to be saving and buying neither!!
ReplyDeleteAhhhh!!! You're killing me here. I love them both.

They are identical! Btw, have you seen this video: http://www.hm.com/it/moda/hmfashionvideo/thefashionistacaf__fashionvideoaction_1276762109095.nhtml
ReplyDeleteReminded me of you...
I know I would feel so so soooo sexy wearing these... I have no red shoes, or not red anything. And it is the burning color of the fall... oh la la... gotta fix that!
ReplyDeletei love finding cheaper versions of the same item. these shoes are super pretty, so i would probably go with the less expensive ones.
ReplyDeletehttp://ohtobeamuse.com
I'd rather go with the cheaper price tag but I LOVE Rock & Republic so I think I'd have to save and splurge on the R&R!
ReplyDeleteLove these shoes!
The color is so perfect for FALL - love this pick!
ReplyDeleteI had a tough time seeing a difference here! They are so pretty. You should get a pair :)
ReplyDeletenaina
Save save save in this case! I save my money for classic items. These are super fun, but I know I won't get the wear out of them.
ReplyDeleteGreat crave or save!
They look exactly the same!!
