I was lingering around the stores in Square One when I decided to enter into Browns. I can't help it! I don't have any money, but at least I can stare longingly at the beautiful shoes and pick out the ones I would buy if I had ANY money. Moving on... As I was window shopping, I noticed a familiar shoe but not a familiar name. It looked like the the Manolo Blahnik Sedaraby silver shoe from Sex in the City! Remember, in the episode "A Woman's Right to Shoes" Carrie is forced to take off her Manolos only to realize that someone had stole them!
Unfortunately, the price tag for these beauties is a whooping $715.00 dollars. But don't despair! Browns has come out with a shockingly similar pair of shoes, that made me do a double take in the store. This said shoe is from their own line, Brown's ID and will only run you around $158 dollars (plus shipping). There are NO Brown stores in Ottawa (eurgh, when will this city start catching up!) but Brown's DOES offer a flat rate shipping rate of only $5 dollars! If you want to take a closer look at the price and the shoe, click here.
Here are the two shoes side by side. Obviously there are some differences, but the similarities are uncanny!
Would YOU buy a knock-off version of these Manolos? Or would you wait until you could get the real thing?
