Sunday Steals: Fendi Desir Silk & Suede Sandal Boots on a Budget

My loves, to your left you shall find Fendi’s fabulous Desir Silk & Suede Sandal Boots – the very same ones seen donned by both Kelly Ripa and Carey Mulligan; to the right check out le tempting Yasmina from Type Z.

Though the Type Z tantalizers are constructed out of faux suede and sport sheer mesh panels, as opposed to the silk chiffon and true suede of the Fendi’s; for a mere $63.75, in comparison to the $796.00 needed to make their haute couture cousin your very own, they are just as capable of making the budget babe feel like a million bucks – without breaking the bank!

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


Fashionably yours!

    I love the Yasmina heels. That price is too great to pass up. Plus, those heels are so fiery. Hope you're having a great Mother's Day.

    Tightwad all the way! They look so similar and while the heel on the Fendi is tres posh, $63.75 is more in my budget haha. Hope you've had a great weekend! :)
