Knockoff Ninja #63 - Jeffrey Campbell "Dina"


Jeffrey Campbell "Dina" in Black Suede available at Motel ($250.00)


Wild Diva "Pierre-01" in Black Suede available at Cicihot ($34.03)

My KN post this week is late, but luckily I found these! They're a bit of a blast from the past! A few of my shoe group friends loathed this style, but I quite liked them! I just think the sharp-looking lucite wedge is REALLY neat. Like heelless shoes, but without the imminent danger if you happen to lean backward, haha! I was super surprised to see these pop up while browsing Cicihot. The major differences are apparent; the platform is not as high and the toe is almond-shaped instead of the Lita's standard square-toe. Dealbreaker? No way. These look very nice, and Wild Diva puts out great quality footwear.

Happy shoe shopping!

Knockoff Ninja #61 - London Trash "Crime"


London Trash "Crime" in Black Crocodile available at Bakers ($99.98), Heels ($229.99)


Cape Robbin "Debby-DH2" in Black Crocodile available at Shiekh Shoes ($32.99), Make Me Chic ($49.00), Blamers Shoes ($53.99), Cicihot ($59.99)

WOOOOWWWW! As soon as I came across these, I got super excited. Nothing is really as close dupe-wise as these are! The Crime have a bit more of a flat finish and the Debby has a gold bottom. That is where the differences end! These are rad. AND it seems like Cicihot always has discount codes, so you can save even more! Weeee!

Happy shoe shopping!

Knockoff Ninja #60 - Steve Madden "STS"

Steve Madden "STS" in Black available at 6pm ($104.99), Zappos ($116.99), Nordstrom ($104.25), Steve Madden ($129.95), Heels ($129.99), Dillards ($129.99), Macys ($139.00)

Anne Michelle "Spiral-23" in Black available at UrbanOG ($35.40), Cicihot ($35.78)

COULD IT BEEEE?! Maybe. I feel extra bad for neglecting le bloggy for so long, and I've had these on the back burner for a while, so I figured I'd toss 'em up here for you guys :)

Happy shoe shopping!

Knockoff Ninja #59 - Jeffrey Campbell "Everly Cheetah"

Jeffrey Campbell "Everly" in Cheetah available at Karmaloop ($114.95)

Dollhouse "Guru" in Leopard available at UrbanOG ($35.40), Cicihot ($36.45), Make Me Chic ($37.70)

Does anything really need to be said? I absolutely adore these little cut-out booties in every incarnation, but in LEOPARD? Um, yep. Yes plz. The only real difference I can see is the JCs have a silver/gunmetal plate, while the Dollhouse version appear to have gold. Big deal? Not really. Especially for the price. GIMME.

Happy shoe shopping!

Knockoff Ninja #58 - Privileged "Gabriella"


Privileged "Gabriella" in Black available at Shiekh Shoes ($49.99), Karmaloop ($86.00), Heels ($109.99)



Wild Rose "Wilson-02" in Red available at Make Me Chic ($43.20), UrbanOG ($44.20), Cicihot ($49.95), Go Jane ($56.70)

Also available in Silver and Green!

Wild Rose is (and I loathe this expression, but for lack of a better one) KILLING IT in the dupe department! First we had the Wagner dupe, and now this, which is really just the same construction with a different upper. I wish they made these in black (of course), but I think I kinda love the red! What about you?

Happy shoe shopping!

Knockoff Ninja #57 - Steve Madden "Amanduh"

Steve Madden "Amanduh" in Black available at Steve Madden ($99.99)

Wild Diva Lounge "Jordyn-01" in Black available at Make Me Chic ($29.30), Pink Basis ($30.99), Go Jane ($31.90), UrbanOG ($32.40), Cicihot ($33.35)

GAAHHHHH I HAVE BEEN IN DEEP LUST WITH THESE FOR SO LONG. There's only one size left in the black, but we're in luck, because Wild Diva Lounge just released a badass dupe for only $33! Jordyn-01 comes in burgundy, black, and natural (if you're into that sorta thing). I'm having a hard time deciding between burgundy and black. Wish I had the fundage to get both, but such is life right now *sigh* Someone send me 52,000 Dogecoins! :P

You can also take 20% off your UrbanOG purchase until Friday with the code HEARTUOG!

What do you think?

Knockoff Ninja #56 - UNIF "Cross Trainer"


UNIF "Cross Trainer" in Hologram available at UNIF ($155.00), Nasty Gal ($235.00)

Fashion Women's Short Boots With Cross Print available at Sammydress ($20.95)

Also comes in black and galaxy print :)

This is another irritating instance where some awesome dupes are from a Chinese-based company, so the sizes only go up to 8.5 :c Sorry, guys. But wow, these are ridiculously accurate and cost next to NOTHING. Shipping is another story, but STILL!

Happy shoe shopping!

Knockoff Ninja #55 - Privileged "Wagner"


Privileged "Wagner" in Black available at Shiekh Shoes ($89.99 $39.99), Roxx ($76.00), ZooShoo ($98.00), Make Me Chic ($98.00), Heels ($99.99)

Wild Rose "Wilson-01" in Black available at Make Me Chic ($36.20), UrbanOG ($37.20), Charlotte Russe ($45.50), Go Jane ($47.40)

Dang! Exactly the same, minus the texture and heel! Nothing else can really be said, so I'll let you guys decide! Yay or nay?

Happy shoe shopping!

Knockoff Ninja #54 - Giuseppe Zanotti Star Sandal


Giuseppe Zanotti "Star Sandal" in Black Suede available at Neiman Marcus ($2,495.00), Saks Fifth Avenue ($2,495.00), Bergdorf Goodman ($2,495.00), Forzieri ($2,495.00), Luisa Via Roma ($2,569.44)



Liliana "Afragola-25" in Black Suede available at Make Me Chic ($42.90), UrbanOG ($44.20), Go Jane ($57.90)

I adore these! Can you say no to these at a tiny fraction of GZ's cost? I don't think so! Not to mention Liliana's version is bound to be WAY more comfy what with the decent-sized platform (and I know from experience the brand cranks out great quality shoes).

Happy shoe shopping!

Knockoff Ninja #53 - 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 #52 - 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

Knockoff Ninja #51 - Jeffrey Campbell "Coltrane" pt. 2!


Jeffrey Campbell "Coltrane" in Black Distressed available at Farfetch ($161.60), Jildor Shoes ($180.00), Karmaloop ($184.00), Nasty Gal ($185.00), Nordstrom ($199.95)


Qupid "Valiant" in Black available at Tilly's ($39.99), Make Me Chic ($40.50), Go Jane ($43.20)

Also available in Oxblood at UrbanOG and Go Jane!

Looks like I spoke too soon! About a week after my first post on the creeper Coltrane dupes, THESE CAME OUT. GAH! I'm still eyeballing them, and have been for weeks. But now that I have the creeper version in black, I don't know whether I should get the Oxblood or the black! CONUNDRUM!

What do you guys think? I'm dying, here!

Sorry about the extended absence! Trying to get my bloggy butt in gear, been busy with other stuff :D

Knockoff Ninja #50 - Jeffrey Campbell "Everly"

Jeffrey Campbell "Everly" in Black available at Nasty Gal ($188.00), Shop Akira ($194.90), Nordstrom ($194.95), Lori's Shoes ($194.95), Envi Shoes ($194.95), Jildor Shoes ($195.00), Urban Outfitters ($195.00), Karmaloop ($195.00), Need Supply ($195.00), Acrimony ($195.00), Shopbop ($195.00)

Cut It Out Buckle Boots in Black available at Go Jane ($44.20)

The differences between these shoes aren't even worth pointing out. These are too similar to nit-pick! Go grab 'em up!!!

Happy shoe shopping!

Knockoff Ninja #49 - Jeffrey Campbell "Coltrane"


Jeffrey Campbell "Coltrane" in Black Distressed available at Farfetch ($161.60), Jildor Shoes ($180.00), Karmaloop ($184.00), Nasty Gal ($185.00), Nordstrom ($199.95)

Wild Diva Lounge "Credence-11" in Black available at Make Me Chic ($32.90), UrbanOG ($33.20), Go Jane ($35.10)

I'm going to be totally honest here, I ordered these the same day I came across them. I've been waiting SO LONG for a quality, affordable Coltrane/Balenciaga dupe, and these are about as good as they're gonna get! I ADORE the creeper sole, probably way more than the original chunky rubber heel! I'm expecting these tomorrow, so I'll definitely append this post with a detailed review right after I get 'em :D

The Credence-11 is also available in a GORGEOUS Oxblood! GO GET SOME!

EDIT 7-26: Got 'em! They look great in person, and appear to be great quality. Both buckles are adjustable, which is good because they felt a little loose at first, even on my slightly wide feet. True to size. Really stoked to wear them out!


Happy shoe shopping!

Knockoff Ninja #48 - Jeffrey Campbell "Succession"

Jeffrey Campbell "Succession" in Black/White exclusive to Karmaloop SOLD OUT! (retailed $215.00)
Gabina in Black/White available at Make Me Chic ($58.00), AMI Clubwear ($66.99)

Super close, almost identical. My only gripe is that the platform isn't hidden/covered! GAH! If not for that, this shoe would *almost* be an exact replica. Still, good news for people looking for the now sold out Succession who are willing to compromise a bit.

I don't actually care for these too much, but they were way too close to not do a write up! I love the Damsel base to death, but not really in the form of an athletic-esque shoe.

Do you dig 'em?

Knockoff Ninja #47 - Taylor Says "Sharkie"


Taylor Says "Sharkie" in Grey available at Heels ($199.99)

Shark Pumps in Grey available at GoJane ($34.90), UrbanOG ($35.40)

I find it SO HILARIOUS that I had this post sitting in my drafts for about a week, and all of the sudden Kat Von D posts an Instagram of her wearing these shoes (and it looks like they run a bit big!). The DUPES, though, not the Taylor Says ones! How crazy! Imagining Kat Von D buying shoes that cost less than $100 makes me feel funny inside <3

If it were up to me to choose just by the facial expression of the shark, I'd pick the dupes, too. He looks more angsty and I love it :D

These also come in mint and a light peachy pink! Snatch 'em up before KvD's rabid fans do!

Happy shoe shopping!

Knockoff Ninja #46 - Jennifer Chou "Carmelo"


Jennifer Chou "Carmelo" in Neon Pink available at Solestruck ($99.95)

Privileged "Drama" in Pink available at Make Me Chic ($90.00), Bdonnas ($90.00), UrbanOG ($90.00), Go Jane ($91.00)

Privileged's version is most definitely inspired by Jennifer Chou's "Carmelo", but a little something is lost in the liberties taken with that middle strap. I don't really care for it. But the rest of the shoe is gorgeous! I wouldn't wear these myself, but I feel like someone out there will love 'em to death :D

Happy shoe shopping!
