WOOOHH!!! Can I get a three cheers for Friday!?! I don’t know about ya’ll, but between our A/C breaking & a few nights of bad storms, this week has been a long one. I’m so ready for the weekend (we have company coming!) and hope to spend some time relaxing by the pool.
Today I wanted to do something a little different. Recently I’ve become obsessed (this is totally an understatement…) with designer shoes and handbags. A few years ago, I wouldn’t even think twice about ‘investing’ in such things. Flash forward to now, and several pairs of Tory Burch shoes/handbags later, and I definitely have gone over to the ‘dark side,’ LOL!
What I’ve also learned is that while it’s good to invest in quality shoes/handbags that you will wear repeatedly (I’m looking at you Tory Burch flats & Miller Sandals that I wear pretty much daily…), sometimes it’s wiser to go for an option that has the same look, but a much smaller price tag. For more ‘trendy’ items, it’s so easy to get the designer look for way less! Not only will you be feeling fabulous, but your wallet will also thank you (a win-win!)
So I’ve gone ahead and rounded up three designer shoe and handbag ‘dupes’ that I’m crushing on. These Rebecca Minkoff sandals are a personal favorite, and one’s that I’ve gotten a lot of wear out of (ps- they’re on major sale!) I’m also obsessed with these Marc Fisher espadrilles and may or may not be stalking Nordstrom for them to restock my size (they are an absolute identical dupe to the much pricier Chloe option!) Also, this Vince Camuto Shoulder bag might have to come home with me (it’s part of the Nordstrom sale and genuine leather, so gorgeous!)

Do you have any favorites?? Are you a fan of finding designer ‘dupes’ as well?? I’d love to hear ya’lls thoughts.
XOXO,
Love the handbags! I saw one very similar to the first one at Old Navy, but it was a pale pink color!
Looked around your blog and it’s so adorable! I am a CPA too and work full time. It’s nice to (virtually) meet someone else with a similar background in the blog world!
Old Navy is so great – I’ll have to check that out 🙂
I can’t wait to follow along with your blog. As cheesy as it is, it’s always so cool to meet another accountant, lol!
XO!
OBSESSED with all of these neutrals! I try to mix it up with the saving and splurging.

Such great choices. The saves are almost IDENTICAL to the splurges!! Always great to save that $$$
It’s so crazy isn’t it?! The Marc Fisher espadrilles are practically identical (I still am dying to get those!)
XO!
Great high and low finds!!! Hugs, Kait

So hard to splurge when it’s so easy to find something similar for cheaper (definitely something I’m working on always!)
Love this post! I love finding dupes for expensive pieces!
Xoxo,
