Tightwad Tuesday: Stuart Weitzman Chokeup on the Cheap

Mon peu flirte, to your left allow your pretty peepers to rest upon the sass of Stuart Weitzman’s Chokeup - Black Suede Pump; to the right take a peek at the loveliness that is Jessica Simpson’s Tamana Pump.

While the tantalizing Tamana pair features a slightly lower heel than the 3” of the Weitzman’s; for just $68.95, as opposed to the $335.00 asking price of the originals, there is no question that they retain the ability to add a touch of kittenish femininity to one’s shoe collection, at a price that doesn’t leave your AmEx shivering in his boots!

Are you having a tightwad moment darlings, or are you plagued with a craving to splurge?


Fashionably yours!

I love JSimpson's version. The black inside appeals to me rather than the silver in the Weitzman shoe.

Impressive find, darling!
Loving those JS pumps!

Oh, the low heel! It was foretold it would make a comeback and I'm so glad it did. Love the kitten heel. Probably go for the cheaper.

Lovely shoes !

Rae said...

I actually prefer the heel of the Jessica Simpson pair much better... A good thing for my wallet!

Shop N' Chomp said...

I'd go with the JS ones. They're so similar!

(Not weird at all! In fact, the hubs has been telling me to just buy it. I think he's sick of me talking about it...lol)

Sara said...

I love Jessica Simpson shoes! I always try them on in the store! :)

Skateboarding?!! Ha! That is awesome! I only managed to fall off of one once :P

Josie said...

What a fantastic match! The heel isn't quite high enough for me -- I generally prefer 4 inches or more -- but these are cute!

I'm not usually a fan of kitten heels (I love heels very high), but the Jessica Simpson ones do look really fab.

Unknown said...

I want to wear it for work! Looks so nice. =) I like the Jessica Simpson one, the heels are just right :)

Lisa Lisa Lisa said...

Def the JS pair! Those are really perfect. I love them! They are perfect for wearing to work or wearing to happy hour with a pair of dark jeans

My Heart Blogged said...

Those shoes are bot so cute. I like the skinnier heel of the Stuart Weitzman, but I think the Jessica Simpson ones would be easier to walk in.

Oh to Be a Muse said...

i think these look a bit different, so it might be good to get both. if only i could wear heels these low.

Leah said...

I can be a tightwad today as long as it's comfy... they both look great. xoxo

I love the Jessica Simpson shoes! Great find!

Clare said...

WHoever designs J. Simpson's shoes deserves a lovely award. I have yet to see a shoe of hers that i do not love.

Sara said...

I always love the look of high heels, but a low heel is definitely nice to have. They are a little bit nicer to my feet. I actually really like both of these shoes, tough call! But I'll probably go with the Jessica Simpson ones.

nycstylelittlecannoli said...

you really have a knack for these things...amazing how much they are alike except for the price!! :)
have a great thanksgiving!!

Melanie's Randomness said...

I'd wear & buy whichever one doesn't hurt my feet because they look awfully similar!! =)

Joanne Faith said...

I jut don't think I would pay $335.00 for such a non-WOW shoe!

Sara Lee Bentley said...

Kitten heels are really cute, aren't they? Either of these would look cute with a pair of slim jeans, rolled up a bit at the ankle, don't you think?

k said...

i might go with neither!?

Style with Benefits said...

Price aside, I think I actually prefer the JS heel because of the larger width at the top of the heel. I know, so minor, but I just like it better. :) Another great find/comparison post.

Happy early Thanksgiving!

Angelica Ng said...

Wow, how can it be that I like the Jessica Simpson version? This is Simpson we're talking about! I never like anything of hers!
