If you know anything about me, it’s that I absolutely love shoes but if you know absolutely anything else about me it’s that I am ultimately just a broke college student that spends her small amount of money on alcohol (sorry mom), transportation, and food. But my lack of financial stability doesn’t make me love shoes any less. It just means that I can’t go out and order the $1,000 Gucci slides that I would literally sell my soul for. So instead, I have a compiled a list of some of the ‘trendiest’ shoes right now along with stores that sell much cheaper versions!
1. The Gucci Slide
Gucci slides with fur at the heel end are all the rage right now, but paying nearly $1,000- $995.00 to be exact, is just not a feasible option for many people and certainly not for me. Thankfully, Egoshoes.com is selling a version for $32.99 that looks almost identical.
2. Yeezy Season 2 Booties
"Yeezy, Yeezy, Yeezy," no really, it seems like these days everything is all about Yeezy. Especially the highly coveted season 2 booties that come in a wide variety of neutral colors. The only problem with these beautiful booties is that they are out of the price range, like way out of the price range (their retail price is $1,458.50). But fortunately for us, Ego shoes carries a pretty convincing dupe for only $44.99.
3. YSL Sparkly Booties
Everyone needs a little sparkle in their wardrobes, and the YSL sparkly booties that come in multiple colors are the almost perfect addition to absolutely anyone's closet. I say almost perfect because there is one downside to owning these beauties; you have to shell out close to $1,000. Luckily, Forever 21 has a similar version for $24.43. And while they are not exactly the same they offer up the same chic vibes.

4. Gucci Sneakers
Scrolling through Instagram, it is increasingly hard to miss all of this generation's 'it-girls' prancing around LA in anything but their Gucci flower embroidered sneakers. But as much as I wish, I was an 'it-girl', I am not and I definitely don't have the same budget as one. Thank god, for Ego Shoes, because once again they have come in handy with an equally stylish knockoff.
5. Stuart Weitzman Over the Knee Boots
Over the Knee Boots have become a style staple for the past few seasons. They go with absolutely everything and can be worn year round. The most popular, over the knee boot option, sold by Stuart Weitzman, retails at $795 and as a result, may not be the most popular option to your bank account. Have no fear! Being that this style of boot is in high demand many different stores have produced an almost identical version- for much less money.
