Though the Melissa marvels are adorned with true Swarovski crystals, as opposed to the twinkling rhinestones seen on the ALDO’s; for a mere $40.00, in comparison to the $360.00 needed to make the Ultragirl’s your very own, the precious Philberta’s are every bit as charming as their higher-priced counterpart, and allow the budget babe to add a little sparkle to her step – without breaking the bank!
What’s your stand, lovers…will you splurge, or save?
Fashionably yours!

I heart Melissa! I need a pair of JPG Melissa sandals! :D
Awesome find, darling E!

Oh wow, what a price. So adorable,though.
Wow, $360 for a flat? I'll pass and go with the Aldo. They look pretty similar, and what a nice Spring shoe too :)
I adore anything sparkly and these flats fit the bill! Not only that, I adore Aldo shoes. So I would definitely go with that pair instead :)
cute shoes :D
I'd definitely go with the Aldo shoes ... I actually like them better anyway. $360 for flats? I'll definitely pass. $40? definitely.
Hope all is well Erika!
Definitely save!
I love these... so great for summer! Esp for a night outfit when I don't want to wear heels... these would totally dress it up!
Melissa shoes are pretty cool, but the price tag on those Aldos are much more in my range.
Adorable .... like Cinderella's but flats .... of course the Aldo ones. What a great item to post about and with a thrifty option triple good.
LOVE them!

These are so adorable. Glad you found a thrifty one.
So sweet! Love the thrifty.
The Melissa version is my favorite! But with a $360 pricetag, I'd have to go with the Aldo.
These are so sweet.....amazing find!
Although the Melissa flats have more sparklies, I would have to choose the Philberta flats. That way, I can save $320. I hope you're having a good Sunday.
i have to say splurge, the melissa ones are gorgeous!
I LOVE the Melissa pair! Adorable! ♥
Those are really cute. I would love the Melissa ones but the price is way too much!

Definitely the Aldo's!!
I may have to pick these up..so adorable and a great price. Fabulous find! Hope you are doing well !!
I'd have to go with the Melissa ones.
Great find Erika!
I'm certain if I spent $360 for a flat, it would at least have to have something other than those sparkles.. haha! But, I think I'd use the rest of the money to find some vintage treasures.. :) Enjoy your weekend. -xxoo
So lovely! I really like how sparkly they are...no matter how old I am, I'm sure I'll always love sparkly shoes. :D
I love them both -- I'll take those charming sparkly Aldos!

When it comes to buying flats, I would go with the Aldo's. The Melissa flats are way too expensive and I don't think spending a lot on flats is worth it, because I usually wear them frequently so they may become dirty and worn out. I don't love these particular flats, they are a little bit too shiny for me. But wow what a price difference!
cheap for sure! I don't wear flats too much so I don't want to spend a lot of money on them. very cute~

I would save with the Aldo flats.

Love this! I will have to try on these Aldo ones asap!
xo Mary Jo
I would be happy with either pair!
OMG I am in LOVE!! They are both just amazing!! If I had the dough I would love to splurge on the Melissa's but alas I really could only swing Aldo's pair which are still super cute!

ooo so sparkly...perfect for a bride! :) Love them both, but who wouldnt love the cheaper ones! Hope you had a nice weekend Erika.
this speaks to the shoe affectionado in me. i love love love the sparkles of Melissa's flats, though for the price, i'd compromise and go for the knockoff.
Your blog is amazing!
