Sunday Steals: L.A.M.B. Pilot for Pennies

My loves, to your left feast your eyes on L.A.M.B.'s ever-fabulous Pilot; to the right place your pretty peeper’s on Type Z’s sassy Strike.

While the Type Z tantalizers feature a 4" heel and 1 1/4" platform, as opposed to the 4 1/2" heel and 1 1/2" platform of the luscious L.A.M.B.'s; for a mere $65.40, in comparison to the $325.00 needed to take the lovely L.A.M.B.'s home, they are every bit as glamorous of a choice for the cheap chica – and allow one to indulge in all three fabulous shades (black, cognac, and grey)!

Which role have you decided to undertake on this sultry Sunday, kittens? Tightwad or spendthrift?


Fashionably yours!

    They look great; I love wedge platforms since they're so much more comfy than heels. :D

    I think I'd have to go with the Type Z, just to cut down on the heel height a little, for my walking comfort.

    Personally I don't like either, but if I had a choice than the L.A.M.B ones because they just seem more fabulous!

    Another amazing pair of kicks. I would take either. But of course, I am partial to the cheaper ones.

    P.s. i read of Sherin's blog that you don't swim either! I thought i was the only non-swimmer left in the world

    I always seem to go with the cheaper one, but they look so similar, and I'm cheap. I would probably fall in them but I would look fab doing it.

    Cute look -- a little trendy for me to drop too much on it, so I'll go with the Type Zs!

    I really like the Strikes instead of the Pilots because of the darker interior and the higher heel. Thank you so very much, E, for helping me shop better. LOL. I would spend so much money if it wasn't for you.

  42. Claire KieferJanuary 30, 2011 9:08 PM

    Whoa, Erika, I totally can't tell the difference between the two (aside from the color of the inside of course). Amazing! I love the shape of them. I am not allowed to buy shoes right now (!!!) but as soon as I give myself some leeway (Valentines Day maybe? ha) I might have to check the cheaper version out. They are hot!

  43. Joanne FaithJanuary 30, 2011 9:32 PM

  46. ediotJanuary 31, 2011 1:07 PM

    these are so great! the type z are more priceworthy for sure- but i like the inside of the l.a.m.b ones the most.. but if i had to choose with my tight budget it'd be type z
