Finally a designer has come to the rescue of those lusting after the Christian Louboutin Lace Booties, which retail for $1,785.00.
The Dollhouse Tish Peep Toe Platform Pumps don’t even come close to the hotness of the Louboutins, but for the price of $75.95, they’ll do for now.
When Ashanti attended the 5th anniversary of “Wicked” on Broadway benefit performance at the Gershwin Theatre on October 27, 2008 in New York City, she wore the Gucci Devandra Studded Boots. The boots were hands down the hottest thing on Ashanti. While her hair was tight and she wore a nice little LBD, she seemed [...]
When I saw Gucci’s Spring 09 runway show, I was immediately smitten with the Gucci Iman Sandals, which are my favorite from the Spring/Summer 09 collection. The sandals follow the Gucci chic standard, but with a dose of steroids boasting the 4-inch heel even higher with the addition of a double platform. A [...]
Today’s Designer Alternate is yet another shoe previously featured on my Because I’m Addicted series, which is a short post where I highlight insanely expensive and equally gorgeous shoes. The Christian Louboutin Peniche, a loafer-inspired peep-toe pumps, aren’t my favorite of the reigning Loubou’s, but they’re still hot. The 5-inch high heel with [...]
The Because I’m Addicted post series surrounds shoes that are insanely expensive. All the BIA shoes are usually over $500, so of course I’m always looking out for some designer alternate for the most popular shoes posted.
The 1st post of the BIA series surrounded flat sandals. The most popular shoe of the post were [...]
A while back, I did a Because I’m Addicted post, subtitled All Caged In. The post surrounding super stappy high-heeled sandals that encompassed that entire foot. The post contained 3 of my favorite shoes of the season: the Camilla Skovgaard Birdcage Pump, Givenchy Birdcage Booties and last, but not least, my [...]
Negin contacted Lolo’s Cube wondering who made Kim’s Nude shoes, as originally seen in this post. Kim’s Nude Ankle Strap Platform Pumps are Yves Saint Laurent, but unfortunately aren’t available online, only at YSL locations. The patent leather version, as previously won by Kim’s sister, Khloe Kardashian, retail for $840, so Kim’s shoes [...]
Some while ago Janet Jackson wore an Alexander McQueen dress to the BMI Awards. She was my fashion favorite for the night, even with the beret. The very sophisticated LBD has a wool and silk blend bottom and a multi-layered, ruched sheer top. Super hot look and I love the high collar.
Ms. Jackson’s [...]
Earlier last season Rihanna was the first to rock a Gucci Fall 08 outfit to a Gucci event in her honor. The singer wore the jacket with a Gucci Fall 08 dress, just as it was worn on the runway. The jacket was also worn by Mc Lyte during the 2008 VH1 Hip Hop Honors [...]
So I mentioned these Christian Louboutin Button Web Sandals some while ago. I’ve been crazy about the sandals since their release, though I know these aren’t everybody’s cup of tea. Jenny McCarthy recently wore these sandals to the Pinnapple Express premiere, with a RM Roland Mourent Moon dress. Love the look. She deffinetely has the [...]
If you recall, Solange wore an orange pair during her bday celebration. I’m not going to attempt to find the pic, as it’s not really worth showing. But I am going to highlight the shoe. The Versace Metallic Peep Toes retail for $600. The Baker’s Shoe Ivy retail for a mere $69.95, but only come [...]
I don’t know if anyone else has noticed, but another shoe that’s taking over the red carpet is the Givenchy Gladiator Bootie. The black pair has recently been seen on Cassie and Lauren London and the gold pair on Heidi Montag. Shercole from Minority Weirdos requested an alternate for the GGB’s. So of course, I was [...]
I think I’ve strayed away from why I initially started this blog. Initially Lolo’s Cube specialized in finding alternate and affordable looks, though I’ve always had a love for the opulent items. So I’m going to feature a designer alternate item a day. If anything, you’ll know the original designer of your favorite shoes, lol. [...]

My cousin was looking for some footwear that would keep her looking chic, but was comfortable enough for running around all day. So [...]
I love Burberry, not only for their signature plaid fabric, but also for the sexy looks the line provides. My favorite look is this sexy ruched dress from the Burberry Porsum line:
Ruched Empire Dress & PVC & Leather Belt, $1,995.00 & $495.00
I love the “don’t give away too much” feel about this dress, with it’s [...]
This long-sleeve wrap dress by Issa London in a “dream” print is simply fabulous. I’d wear it to work with a tank underneath or wear it out on the town with Sweetums. Also perfect for those after office events where you want to be noticed, but don’t want to thrust your sexiness into the crowd. [...]
I absolutely love this look by Versace.
It’s right on time for all the festive activities. But with the shirt alone priced at $2,204.90, it’s unattainable for most. No worries though, we have options.
Here are some top alternatives…
KNITTED TOP VSD ALVIN $59; Sequin Racerback Tunic $44.00; Sequin Ribbed Tank Top $29.99; Ingrid Glamorous Top $98.00; [...]
