Thrifty Thursday: Givenchy Multi-Strap Wedge for Less

My loves, to the left take a gander at Givenchy’s marvelous Multi-Strap Wedge, the very same one seen dazzling upon the tootsies of Kaley Cuoco, Taylor Swift, Mary-Kate Olsen, and Ciara; to the right feast your eyes upon Jessica Simpson’s tantalizing Tito Wedge Sandal.

Though the wedge height of the Simpson stunner is ever so slightly lower than that of the glamorous Givenchy; for just $119.00, as opposed to the $519.00 required to make the Givenchy’s your very own, they are just as capable of lending a bit of sass to your strut, at a price that no frugalista could possibly resist!

Now the question remains…will you be thrifty, or suckered into putting on your spendthrift cap?


Fashionably yours!

You know, I was just thinking the other day I wish you would do one of your thrifty comparisons on Ginvenchy's corset wedge (I've seen it on Miley Cyrus I think), because I would LOVE to get a less expensive but equally awesome pair.

Tiffany Kadani said...

Whew! These shoes are sexy! I love both of them so getting the cheaper one is a must for me. So sexy!

Laura said...

I would totally be thrifty on this one because they look sooo alike! I am obsessed with wedges right now and both of these pairs are amazing!!

Melanie's Randomness said...

I like this shoe!!! I'm going to be suckered into the cheaper one!! =)

Sunshine Sarah said...

Uuuuhhhh! They look super hot! I wish I had these shoes for my club nights. ^.^

Secondhand Stella said...

Wow, I see no difference b/w the two. Def the cheaper version would be my pick!

Krysten @ Why Girls Are Weird said...

Totally sexy. I'd take either!

carolina @ patagonia gifts said...

I'm a huge fan of wedges and platforms and these are just stunning! xo

Natasha Hollerup said...

I actually like both, but I think J. Simpson's version looks a little better. Of course, I'd have to see them on a foot. Hope you're having a good day.

Audrey Allure said...

The shoes are gorgeous!

Oh Erika!! this wedges are the best! I love both obviously I'll go for Jessica Simpson because there is no money in my pocket right now! are you the one in the picture?? you are so pretty!!!

Izzy said...

Oooh they look so similar! Jess Simpson for sure (Harry Potter took all my money lol) :D

Joanne said...

Oh the lower wedge for me, please! I'll take the JS.

Gingham & Grace said...

The Jessica Simpsons are leather which means I would go for hers. Leather = worth the money and I like the matte look of them much better!

Leia said...

Ooh these are gorgeous! Although I prefer the look of the Givenchys... but I probably won't be getting them any time soon ;)

That Chelsea Girl™ said...

Surprisingly, Jessica Simpson DOES make really great shoes! Thanks for the post.

paislea said...

i love them!! so cute! i'm actually liking the simpson ones a little better...

Rocio said...

I pretty much love anything Givenchy but I'll take Jessica's shoes. They are too identical to tell the difference=)

Tights Lover said...

These wedges are gorgeous. ...not to mention nearly identical. Plus, I don't want to be suckered (any more than usual). I'll go with the Jessica's.

Anonymous said...

The only difference I can see is that the leather on the pricer ones appear more liquid, but that just may be the lighting. No reason to splurge here.

The Blonde Duck said...

I love the Givenchy ones! They are perfection in shoe form.

ellie said...

so amazing. cheap as always I'm afraid. I'd just love to have these on shelf somewhere to look at fondly.

Anonymous said...

love your comparisons because I wouldn't even spend 300$ for one pair of shoes! The Jessica Simpson ones are wonderful.

Islandia Lane said...

I would totally go for the JS ones - I own almost 10 pairs of her shoes - they are seriously the most comfy!

Couture Carrie said...

Those shoes are awesome! As much as I love the Givenchy's, the Jessica Simpson's are more realistic.

Maria at Bachman's Sparrow said...

Perfect match girlfriend!

glee said...

I love them both. I couldn't even decide which one :)

Rachel @ The Haute Notes said...

As much as I would love to actually own the Givenchy pair, I'm gonna have to go with Jessica Simpson. Much more affordable, plus they still look great!

www.janetteria.com said...

I adora them both. They look so comfy!

Anonymous said...

Ok..the Givenchy one looks so painful! Looks like the foot is squished in O.o
The Jess. Simpson looks cool! Could do with a bit of sheen tho!!

Sarah said...

They look exactly the same. I'm going thrifty!

R Chandra said...

i would be thrifty... because they both look nearly identical to me! maybe the Givenchy's are shinier ;)
