Tightwad Tuesday: Christian Louboutin Supra Fifre 120 Thigh-High Boots on a Budget

Mon doux, in the left corner you will find Christian Louboutin’s saucy Supra Fifre 120 Thigh-High Boots – the very same stunners seen on Jennifer Lopez, Carine Roitfeld, Ciara, Fergie, Khloe Kardashian, and Kylie Minogue; in the right corner take a peek at Jeffrey Campbell’s blissful Battalion Boot.

Though the chic Campbell’s proffer a slightly higher heel (5”) than the luscious Louboutin’s (4.5”); for just $370.00, as opposed to the $1,995.00 required to add celebrity style to your shoe collection, they are every bit as hot to trot as their couture counterparts – and far more friendly to the frugalista’s wallet!

So mes chéris, what are you up to today? Will your AmEx take a beating with a splurge, or will you stay safe and thrifty with a frugal buy?


Fashionably yours!


Thanks to Net-A-Porter and Free People for the pictures.

    I have a feeling Jeff's boots might hold up on the street better than the expensive ones. But I can't see myself in either. This is probably not a boot for people with short legs.

    Beautiful boots though.

    The Jeff Campbell's are so close! I will have to go with those since the CL's are considerably more expensive and not classic enough that I would wear them every day forever and ever!
    (for 2k I better be able to live in them!)

    Yeah....I'm just going to stare at the Supra Fifre 120s for the rest of the day. That's it. There goes the work day. Just going to stare adoringly at these boots.

    That's not weird...right?

    there are just no competing with these louboutins; i've dreamt of them for two years, and although i know i won't be able to save up enough money to buy them before they go out of production, it would just break my heart to get a cheap copy...

    I love CL more because of the heel, it's thinner! :)

    It's hard to pass on anything Louboutin, but I would go with the more affordable Campell!

    I can't do heeled boots anyway, haha! But $2,000 does seem a little excessive!

    What a great comparison! I would be tempted by the JC's!

    $370 is still a bit steep for me, but I am a bit head-over-heels for them. They're stunning.

    Lovely boots. And pretty much identical. It's amazing how much we end up paying for styles that can be owned for so much less...
