Sunday Steals: Jimmy Choo Vita Pump for Pennies

Lovers, to the left prepare yourself to fall in love with Jimmy Choo’s charming Vita Pump – the very shoe seen upon Eva Longoria, Reese Witherspoon, Minka Kelly, Jessica Lowndes, Kylie Minogue, and Katharine McPhee; to the right take un petit peek at Dolce Vita’s stunning Vivo Slingback Pump.

Though the Choo’s are a bit darker in hue, and feature a heel and platform height that is slightly higher than that seen upon the Dolce Vita’s; for a mere $169.95, in comparison to the $750.00 asking price of the Jimmy gems, they are a marvelous way for the frugalista to add a pair of perfect nude pumps to her wardrobe at a price that is far more friendly to one’s wallet!

Now the question remains…will you be thrifty, or suckered into putting on your spendthrift cap?


Fashionably yours!

    The jimmy choos look more expensive and a nude pump is a great basic so if I had the money I would splurge!
