Sunday Steals: Sam Edelman Orlando Suede Boots with Fur Cuff for Less

Darlings, to your left take a gander at Sam Edelman’s feisty Orlando Suede Boots with Fur Cuff; to your right, savor the saucy style that is Charlotte Russe’s triple threat a la the 3-In-1 Furry Boot.

Though the chic Charlotte Russe offering is constructed out of faux suede, as opposed to the real suede aesthetic of the Sam Edelman; for just $40.00, in comparison to the $200.00 price tag of the Orlando, it allows the frugal fashionista to make a furry statement for fall in not one, not two, but three haute hues (black, brown, and tan) – without breaking the bank!

Tell me, kittens…will you be a big spender and go for Sam Edelman, or be thrifty and spring for Charlotte Russe?


Fashionably yours!

This is the first time I really prefer the expensive version! I think the proportions on it are a little more interesting. Would definitely love them in my closet!

voguishrogue said...

i woud have to say the sam edelmans are the better get because the charlotte russe ones look cheaper, and since its not an extrvagant price difference, i would go with the expensive ones (:

Krysten @ Why Girls Are Weird said...

The more expensive ones, pending them being able to get over my calves ;-)

ellie said...

I like Charlotte's better. Suede is not easy to keep, either. Just love the big furry top compare to the other one. Plus some of us don't have quite the long legs for the expensive version.

Joanne said...

I like that the Charlotte style has more of a fur collar, and with snow predicted here tonight, I'd go with those!

I like the cheaper one. They look more comfy.

Natasha said...

I really like the length of the Sam Edelman boots. Both versions of the boots are nice, but I love knee highs.

I like the height of the boots from CR better.

I like the Ronson ones better due to the height!

I'm not big on fur to start with, but have to go with the Sam Edelmans. Such a good height and the CRs look a little cheap.

I don't like the Sam Eldon ones. I love the other ones, though.

Charlotte Russe for me this time! I seem to vary between the expensive version and the cheaper one, don't I? Anyway, the Charlotte one is more relaxed, slouchier, and overall looks better!

i actually think the charlotte russe ones look better, without the visible seams and heels, so i'd definitely be thrifty!

Mimi said...

So cute! I need some boots like these in my winter wardrobe.

Grace said...

Not really my style, but I do like the Charlotte Russe better.

So pretty;)

I have to go with the expensive one this time. These boots are perfect for winter,I'm already thinking of outfits to wear these shoes with.

Jennifer Fabulous said...

Me want. Me want right now. Sigh. Yes, I do become a young child again after seeing something magical. ;)

Rachel @ The Haute Notes said...

I'm gonna go for the Sam Edelman pair! I like the height of those better and the minimal fur is more appealing to me. They look like they'd be so cozy for the cool weather too!

Clare said...

Okay WANT these! I am obsessing hard core over faux fur this fall and winter. I love it

Melanie's Randomness said...

I used to work at Charlotte Russe so I'm too partial to that one. The stuff lasts long too. =)

k said...

I have to go with the Edelman ones!

M said...

both versions are good but the Sam Edelman one's are higher so I'd pick that pair.

what a great alternative!!:D

I'm going to have to go with the SE on this one. I adore Sam Edelman construction and I am aware with how easily CR's items seem to fall apart.
Maybe with CR, I am just more careful with footware.

Annushka said...

Very beautiful)))
Lovely post.

Elizabeth said...

I just started a blog! It would be awesome if you guys would check it out. I suggest it if your into modeling and fashion. http://radiantblogger.blogspot.com/

Style with Benefits said...

OK, I usual go with the cheaper option but I'm going to go with the Sam Edelman boot this time. The Charlotte Russe one though is a VERY close second. :)

xx, becs

stylenuggets said...

I think for the price the Edelman's are quite a good buy.

Tamanna A. Shaikh said...

Charlotte Russe because the fur part is larger! :)

this free bird said...

Erika I'm throwing up a red flag (or is that white?) I'm looking for a lace-up suede knee high boot in brown or dark grey suede...have you ever seen anything like this? i've seen some bootie versions. oh, and there was the time on saturday when the bf saw it while i was in the fitting room at j.crew and was too shy to ask the lady or cause a scene and tell me in case i came running out in my underwear.

help!

I need boots with fur! It's so cold in London, that my legs are freezing, hehe. I love the Charlotte Russe one: it looks like a much more comfortable height.

michelle_ said...

i really love these fur lined boots ! i wish i have the right weather to wear these !

glisters and blisters

Maddy said...

I'll have to go with the Sam Edelman!! I love his shoes and I bet they are much warmer than the Charlotte Russe option!

Monique said...

I prefer the Edelman's better.

Sara said...

Those boots are perfect for Winter Erika! I could wear them with a big sweater and warpped in a blanket with some coffee and ovaltine :)

little luxury list said...

They both look pretty chic but the height difference could be suited for different outfit purposes - tough choice!

Angela said...

I like the pair on left, it looks more streamlined.

Megan said...

I like the Charlotte Russe boots

Elizabeth said...

I love the length of the Edelman's but I would probably go with the Charlotte Russe ones

monica said...

i wish they had a charlotte russe in canada

All Women Stalker said...

Hmm I'd for for the expensive ones because they are taller and sexier. Having short legs and thick-ish calves, they'd make me look less stumpy. :D
