Hey, it’s JUST as hot as the “inspiration”
I came across an amazing pair of shoes the other day online and I fell in love right away (I’m always falling in love, ain’t I?). While I’m definitely not one to wear pumps every day, (I am honestly more a flats/ballet slippers type of gal) when I go out,I love a hot pair of pumps to make my outfit pop - know what I mean? Enter, the “LIATRIS” shoe, by Nine West:
How GORGEOUS are these?! They come in other colors as well, but I have my heart set on the black. So, continuing with my story, as my heart is racing and I’m getting my credit card out to make the purchase of these lovely pumps, I realized why loved them so much. See Christian Louboutin’s “Very Prive” pump:
OMG! THAT’S why I loved the Nine West shoe so much! And while I can’t see myself paying $600+ for pumps I’d only wear every few months, paying $89.00 $59.99 USD (now on sale at Nine West.com!) is a nice alternative for shoes that look just as hot.
Do I think the Nine West shoes are Louboutin knock-offs? No, I don’t because they are not “fake” Louboutin marked pumps disguising themselves as the original. They are NINE WEST shoes, with a style obviously “inspired by” the Very Prive pump. Big difference (or at least I’d LIKE to think so…)
Anyhoo, I bought the pumps, end of story and I’m a very happy camper. I can’t wait for the mailman to deliver them :) As always, I’ll post pics of the shoes the second I get them and post a review for you all.
**Edited to add: The Nine West “Liatris” shoe is (at post time) on sale at Amazon.com for only $44.89 USD!!! (Sizes 8.5 & 9.5 only.)

J. Fergie, I sure as hell hope they arrive on time for you! I’m still waiting for mine as well (but I had a whole confusing story with mine and had to re-order). I’m salivating just at the thought of them arriving!

Diane, isn’t it just The Hotness? I’m just itching to wear them already. I’m still waiting for the perfect event to wear them to. My husband says the supermarket doesn’t count as “an event”. Boo hoo. ;)

If you can’t afford Mercedes Benz? You better buy Tata Nano! So if you cannot afford Louboutin? You better buy Nine West or Jessica Simpson! Save your money for other things in your life!
