Kitty cats, to the left we have Stella McCartney’s stunning Maia Cork Platform Wedge – the very same ones seen gracing the fancy feet of le ever-magnificent Michelle Williams and le elegant Emily Deschanel; to the right, plant your pretty peepers upon the Crespo Wedge Sandal from BCBGeneration.
While the charming Crespo sports a slightly lower platform and wedge than the 6 ½-inch McCartney’s; for a mere $89.00, as opposed to the $735.00 of the mesmerizing Maia, they are a sublime way for the frugalista to snag a smidgen of Stella’s haute couture style – at a price that allows one to scoop up all four snazzy shades (Light Peach, Gold, Panna Stone, and White Black), should she so desire!
Will Stella McCartney tempt you into being a big spender, or will BCBGeneration inspire you to save?
Fashionably yours!

Wow, that so much. I'd go for the cheaper ones. For sure.
Glad their is a cheaper option. Thankfully.
The Stella's for sure!
I wouldn't know the difference. Great more reasonable version that you found.
BCB will definitely tempt me with the lower platform, I like the look better. And the price ;)
Loveeee wedges!! Cannot wait for spring!!!
Stella would definitely tempt me into being a big spendor!
Eternally yours,
Stephanie

glisters and blisters

Ooooooh love these sandals!
I'll go for the Stellas because they are vegan leather :)

Honestly? this time I would save for the higher platform wedge Stella McCartney's. They are both cute but the expensive version are more stylized.

Love Stella! I forgot about your love for cork wedges. Glad to see they are still in style.
i think the expensive one does look more classy.. :)
i'm so impressed by your finds!
Definitely go with the more inexpensive one, though both are lovely. :D
Save! they are IDENTICAL, great find!

im really liking both, but based on price, id totally go with the BCBG ones...
i have often found with cork wedges they can look cheap...so i have struggled finding a nice pair throughout the years...but both of these are super nice looking. i really like them!

Such a fun look. I'm glad you found this bargain.
I have to stay thrifty because it just makes more sense to me... unless I were a rich girl of course. ;)

oohhh....i like the Stellas! the inside sole is so much nicer, but the price is so high!
Wow! I like the Stella pair! You notice the difference in the details, but boy is that price steep!
Great find!
thanks for sharing. i have a pair of cork wedges i need to get wearing this spring. if spring ever comes..
xx
Even though the Crespos are really nice, I would have to go with the Maias. I would love to have something by Stella McCartney on my feet.
another amazing find!! The BCBG's are fab! xx
I LOVE the BCB wedges! What a fantastic replica!
Let's be honest, I couldn't walk in a 6.5-inch wedge anyway.

I have to say, I'm pretty much in love with every piece of footwear from BCBGeneration.
The extra $600 or so in savings is gravy. Sorry Stella...you know I love you too!
oooh, i'd have to go for the stella mccartney ones, they're stunning!!
I really like the minimalist look of these pieces. I wish it would warm up, and stop snowing so I could a great pair of cork wedges like the BCBG ones.

I love the Stella McCartney version! Of course, neither version would work in the snow :(
In this case, I think the expensive Stella McCartney ones are much cuter, so today I vote to splurge!!!
How cute!
Its amazing the steals you find! Personally I'm not a fan of these but I see why others would :)
I'll splurge for the Stella McCartney wedges.

I LOVE the Stella McCartney wedges! I may consider purchasing a pair of those (IF my mother approves. Ha!). :)
Oh Stella never fails - those cork platforms are irresistible! And so perfect for spring!
Oh these are rad and they look EXACTLY the same. If I could wear wedges I would take the cheaper ones :)
They're so similar that I'd definitely go with the BCBG's! These would be so cute for summer. :)
The Stella pair are tempting.
I'm not a huge fan of cork plataforms, so...I'll pass this time!
:)
Love,
Camila F.
Such a wonderful shoe. Great you found a cheaper version.
I don't like this wedge. Looks so much like a stylized Birkenstock...but anything that resembles a Birk is never good (not a Birken...Birkenstock! lol).

ooo stella's version is so much more radiant, is it not??? Just something about it, I think I will splurge today :)
The McCarteny ones are far more beautiful... There's something about how delicate that lovely little buckle is!
I do prefer the Stella McCartney, but with such a huge price difference I'd have to go for the Crespo!
Cork wedges are one of my summer must have's. I love them. THe Stella McCartney ones are so nice.
Ummm... I'd save for Stella... Classier, better shade... Love it.
I have some connection here in Paris with the Stella McG crew... hopefully I could be posting something someday. In the meantime I dream through your lovely words, dear.
Hi... Stella it´s amazing.... love

P.S: I'm having a House of Harlow feather ring giveaway! I think it would look perfect on you! :D
Oooo I like the Mia one too much!! I'd have to splurge!! =)
I'm torn! I prefer the Stella McCartney pair but there's no way I'm dropping more than $700 for those. The BCBG though looks pretty darn good too! Yep, I want summer again so I can wear wedge sandals again!
xx, becs
Love the Stella McCartney ones!
Oh gosh they are both so beautiful! I'd be happy with either pair.
Aww, this is beautiful!!
I love it!! ♥
