Knockoff Ninja #51 - London Trash "Ceres"





London Trash "Ceres" in Pink Pony available at Runway Shoetique ($74.99), Heels ($139.99), Bakers ($142.99)


Qupid "Ravish-08" in Raspberry available at Make Me Chic ($33.10), Go Jane ($34.80)

These are okay. I'm not terribly excited about them, but the knockoff well is a bit dry right now. The heel isn't as high, nor the platform, and the color is off. What bugged me in the first place about the Ceres was the lack of a concealed platform in such a pricey shoe, which is also the case with the Ravish-08 (minus the price). Hmmmm.

What do you think? Grab it, or skip it?

Knockoff Ninja #50 - Privileged "Denmark"

Now, this Knockoff Ninja is weird, because I have no idea which one of these came first, and this has happened before with Privileged's "Drama" and Steve Madden's "Dubstep". I saw a preview of the black pair on Privileged's Instagram and immediately after, a picture of the green ones on Steve Madden's IG. So it's not a "Knockoff Ninja" per se, but a post giving you a ton of options! Enjoy!







Privileged "Denmark" in Teal available at Shiekh Shoes ($97.99), Make Me Chic ($98.00), Zooshoo ($98.00), Dr. Jay's ($98.00), UrbanOG ($98.00), Go Jane ($98.80), Shopakira ($98.90), Heels ($99.99)




Steve Madden "Shana" in Green Multi available at Steve Madden ($129.95)

IDENTICAL. Anyone know what the deal is, here? Literally, the only difference is the zipper color. I feel like there's some sort of double agent designer in the shoe world right now, lol. Is Jennifer Chou moonlighting at Steve Madden? The Privileged version can't be considered a dupe because the price point is so similar. In any case, I'm having a real issue not buying these right now. RIGHT NOW. I just might. They are literally my perfect shoe; tall as f*$%, strappy, corseted and full of mermaid-y goodness. (P.S. The Denmark runs a half size small!)

Are these the best shoes you've ever seen, or are they not? If not, come here so I can slap you :P

Happy shoe shopping!

EDIT: Aaaaaannnnndddd, I bought 'em. 20% off with RED20 at Go Jane! Expect a review next week :D
