Splurge vs Steal...CL Coussin Caged Bootie


One of the HOTTEST shoe this season is without a doubt the caged bootie! Worn with everything from leggings and jeans to shorts and dresses, the caged ankle boot is a MUST HAVE in your shoe closet! My personal favorite is definitely the Christian Louboutin Coussin Caged Bootie. Worn by just about every fashion forward fashionista in Hollywood from Gossip Girl's Blake Lively to Reality TV Star and Business Woman Kim Kardashian. If you ask me, these booties are worth the pricey investment,$1595.00! Available in Black, Tan(Cognac) and Red, you are sure reach for these over and over again!


But, if you do not have the means to forgo your mortgage payment for a single pair of TO DIE FOR booties, there are several budget-friendly versions that are sure to meet your shoe desires and keep you stepping in style.

My price saving personal favorite adds a bit more spice to this head turning trend with its 1" platform, cut-out detailing and sling-back design. I have these in BOTH colors(black and cognac) and the compliments have been endless with each wear. The comfort is amazing...I wore them out shopping and then to dinner without a problem! The second time, I wore them out for Ladies Lunch and again, not a compliant to be made!

Up next, The Relish by Penny Loves Kenny is a fashion ringer for the Coussin Caged Bootie but at a fraction of the price. I do believe that I will purchase these in the nude color in order to round out my S/S ankle boots colllection.  Nude heels are a perfect accent to just about any color combination that strikes your fashion fancy. Paired with boyfriend jeans and an army green jacket...CRAZINESS!
