My loves, to the left allow your pretty peepers to rove over the sauciness that is Diane von Furstenberg’s Striped Dugan Top; to the right cast your gaze upon Bubblegum’s zany Zebra Striped Tunic via Lulu*s.
Though le darling DVF is constructed out of silk chiffon, whereas the blissful Bubblegum is crafted out of 100% polyester; for a mere $52.00, in comparison to the $265.00 asking price of the runway version, it is a sublime way for the budget babe to hop aboard the billowy blouse trend – without breaking the bank!
Now the question remains…will you be thrifty, or suckered into putting on your spendthrift cap?
Fashionably yours!
Thanks to Shopbop and Lulu*s for the pictures.

They look so similar, I'd take the Bubblegum. I like this top, it's really pretty for late Spring :)
Super cute! So perfect with black skinny and boots. Love it.
I think paying the 52 bucks for this top would be enough.
So lovely for spring. Great find on the better deal.
They're both so similar that I'd go with the deal.
Beautifully designed! I love the vertical stripes! :D
Wow, that is an exact copy.
I love 100% silk so I would go with the original DVF version.
THANK GOODNESS! for Lulu's!
i LOVE LOVE LOVE that blouse!! stripes are my fave right now and vertical ones make u look skinny!! :)
Beautiful, loved them both but they are identical so why pay more?
Nice find, thank you.

I really like the DVF version of the shirt. It looks a little darker but as if it's sheer. I hope you have a good Tuesday, E.

Craziness! They are nearly identical, with the exception of the fabric. Hands down, I'd go with the Bubblegum one!

I would go with the Bubblegum top.

Cute and super flattering! Bubblegum all the way!
Cute and super flattering! Bubblegum all the way!
what a great find, the bubblegum one looks identical! i'd definitely be thrifty!
I bet the DVF feels divine against your skinm but I'll have to go with Bubblegum on this one!
I'm going to have to go with the $52 top because they look exactly the same, and n one would really know the difference if you said it were DVF anyway. Lovely finds by the way! :)

Wow, really a steal.
Unbelievable, this is such a good one! Although I really do prefer chiffon and love DVF so much I'd probably go with that one. But they are identical, wow! But Bubblegum should be careful b/c DVF sued Forever21 for knocking her off...
Hope you're having a lovely Tuesday Erika!

Oh my. I absolutely love this (these?) top...so gorgeous! I gotta admit, though, the $265 seems kind of tough to swallow. Bubblegum is a new name to me, but I'm willing to give it a try...sorry DVF!
look so similar
but not really my style so probably neither
I think the top will be so pretty for spring.

It's such a gorgeous top! SO perfect for a night out. I really love the Bubblegum one.
Love DVF...she always plays with all kinds of patterns
What a fabulous match! I love it.

definitely going with the Bubblegum top bc it is an exact replica. love the way it flows.
i love the bubblegum one!!! great find!!!! per usual!
♥ allister bee blog
they are so alike for sure. strange how there are so many knockoffs that look just alike, but still probably completely different materials. i love stripes so i'd take either of these ;)
xx
Both tops are cute!
Wow they look so similar I would definitely go for the budget version
This is a great find.
So cool. Even so 50 bucks isn't even in budget. But I love the style. I'll be on the look out for this trend.
I'm sure the fabric is just as good(at the cheaper price). What a cool spring fling thing.
Both are adorable, so I'd go with the Bubblegum. :)
I see a pattern here, the "bubblegum" in this style competition as well as the model with the bubblegum in the previous entry both get a big thumbs up! :)
now THIS is a good substitute!
Erica hunny, I think you just cropped the same shirt and photoshopped it onto two different bodies cuz I can't tell these apart at all!! LOL.
This top is fantastic for spring!! Love your thrifty finds - you always amaze me!
I would have to go with the copycat!

LOOOVE that top so cute and versatile!
These are so identical its a wonder DVF hasn't put a copyright on theirs!
Oh wow, it's not often, but I choose the frugal one! I actually like the shape of the Bubblegum more so than the DVF.

They're so much alike.. with the cheaper one looking a bit more brownish! But still, the cut and the patters.. very the same!! So i guess, i'd choose the cheaper one haha!
Wow, those both are so similar! I can't get over it.
another amazing find, I would cheap it up :)
Wow, you can barely tell the difference, actually I prefer the Bubblegum!
amazing find, Erika! love the stripes! have a nice day! xo
I'd love the Bubblegum version! So pretty.
