Steal of the Week The Perfect Ankle Booties

November 6, 2012

The search for the perfect pair of fall boots can be a tough one.
The majority of the amazing ones are pricey.
And they are especially costly when you consider how Chicago winters tend to make a pair only last one year.

Friday night at dinner we realized that 
3 of us were all wearing the exact same pair of boots.
rag + bone – $495
almost. 
Except mine are Vince Camuto, 
and cost less than 1/3 of the price of the Rag & Bone. 
And they are literally completely identical.
Down to the last stitch and each line across the booties. 
the Vince Camuto just have a more matte leather.

I fell in love with the Rag and Bone pair…knew it was never going to happen…. kept walking around the shoe department at Nordstrom and thought my eyes were playing tricks on me. 
well… my mom – the queen shopper – spotted the save to be honest
 vince camuto – $158

They are so comfortable and I have been living in them. 
The black pair isn’t on Nordstrom’s website, 
but it is still in the stores here.
The taupe pair is awfully cute as well.

Happy Savings 🙂 

xoxo

    good call– there's no way you'd know that your boots are so much cheaper. I've been looking for a pair of black ankle booties. these are super cute!

  • DIY this high end look for less! I'm sharing the 5 easy steps to disguise your air return cover and all the supplies to complete this project. My favorite part of this easy DIY how-to, is that tou can customize the look with paint color and different metal sheet patterns to match your home decor and aesthetic. I actually used leftover supplies from my DIY built-in shelf and desk in my home office to create this look. It helps elevate the space, adding a touch of elegance and a refined finish without breaking the bank. It was easy and affordable to create this custom look for less. Click to shop the DIY project supplies on Amazon. Note: I used scrap wood I had on hand for the project, but you can also pick up 1x2 wood planks from Amazon or a local hardware or craft store. #ad #Amazon #DIY
