Tightwad Tuesday: Rock & Republic Nika Pumps for Pennies

Lovers, to the left take a peek at Rock & Republic’s incredible Nika Pumps – the very same ones seen worn by Annalynne McCord, Audrina Patridge, Kristen Stewart, Rihanna, Drew Barrymore, and Katie Cassidy; to the right prepare to swoon over Anne Michelle’s mesmerizing Virus-01.

While the Anne Michelle marvels are constructed out of manmade materials, as opposed to the true suede of the original Nika’s; for a mere $32.97, in comparison to the $295.00 required to spice up your life with a little Rock & Republic, they are the perfect alternative for the frugalista looking to add a splash of rocker chic to her shoe collection!

Which role have you decided to undertake on this terrific Tuesday, kittens? Tightwad or spendthrift?


Fashionably yours!

I'd definitely be on the cheap with this one.

They're both lovely, but I can't really handle walking in pumps!

Secondhand Stella said...

I would definitely go for the cheaper pair. I think the colour is nicer. I am not sure if I could walk in either pairs though.

FashionJazz said...

Krysten @ Why Girls Are Weird said...

I'd go with the cheaper ones, they look identical!

Maddy said...

Tightwad pair for sure! These shoes are perfect for a night out at the clubs and if someone mistakenly happens to drop their drink on your shoe, it wouldn't be such a big deal with the Anne Michelle pair :)

Natasha said...

I would be a tightwad on these shoes because I don't see myself wearing them all the time and it would be a waste of money to have something so stunning and expensive, but only wear them two or three times.

Josie said...

What a fantastic match -- these would be perfect with skinny jeans! I love them.

Tights Lover said...

Oh my. These pumps are absolutely amazing. I love both pairs!

But $32.97? The Virus-01 shoes are a must have...maybe even in both colors!

Unbelievable find Erika! Fake suede tends to bother me when I see it in person but if these were worn at night I don't think anyone would notice--they are sooo cool!
