I am a true believer in IF YOU CAN'T AFFORD IT please let me repeat please don't get the knock off. meaning DON'T get the gucci and it says pucci like really? 0_o BUT if there is something that looks familiar and doesn't break the bank I say go for it. During my online shopping today I came across these boots at gojane.com which looks so similar to jeffrey campbell lita boot (don't you think)which retails for $160 compared to go jane boot at $29.70 with the promotional code of FALL20R with an additional 20 percent off!!!! until 09/15/2011 so don't pass it up! You can't BEAT THAT WITH A STICK! Trends come and go and sure as you spend $160 in this economy it's always great to have an alternative option. Do you have any? how do you feel about replica's or "inspired" articles?
I LOVE THE SHOE BUT THE PRICE TAG IS SOMETHING ELSE!
SO WHICH WOULD YOU GO FOR AND WHY? COMMENT COMMENT COMMENT!
Dahling.. id do both. If you can afford the jeffery campbell shoes then by all means get them, but if you are wanting a look alike then grab the go jane pairs. as long ad they arent fakes, im find with buying a look alike.
ReplyDeleteI would go for the Jeffrey's because they are extremely comfortable and the price matches the quality of the shoe too. You really get what you pay for. I can walk and stand in my Jeffrey's for 4 hours straight and not have any issues with my feet hurting. Go Jane's shoes are cheaply made and I have some shoes from Go Jane too and they hurt my feet within 20 minutes of standing in them. Plus closed toe shoes from Go Jane fit to tight on my toes (but thats my issue). I would say if you have narrow foot go to Go Jane, but if your foot is wide or fat get the real Jeffrey's.
ReplyDeleteGreat post!!! Happy I found your blog :)

By the way how do the shoes @ Go Jane fit??? Do you need a bigger size or they are close to fit?
ReplyDeleteI agree with the other poster. You get what you pay for as far as shoes go and although I am all about cheap prices when it comes to everything else shoes are never something I skimp on b/c I like to be comfy. I too have ordered from Go Jane ( my foot is normal width) and they hurt like hell not to mention they always look great online but in person they look cheap and cheap looking shoes can mess up an entire look
ReplyDeleteGoing based off the look of the shoe, I would go with the Go Jane selection. As stated above, you do get what you pay for, although I've never purchased any shoes from Go Jane, the poster above is so correct about price and quality.
ReplyDeleteHey boo! Hope to see you in the chat tomorrow (8pm eastern)! =]

I actually like the look of the go jane boot a little better but you do pay for quality and a higher priced heel is gonna feel better in most cases. but you can spend all your money on shoes and have none left to go party! lol go for the go janes!

The Litas are actually a knockoff of another shoe that previewed in a fashion show back in 2006. Fashion is just reinvented/ modernized repetition. Although trending right now, the Lita is definitely not a timeless shoe however they are sure to come back someday. So personally i think you win either way. Have fun with it whether its the real shoe or the replicas! For even better replicas go on ebay. They have the most similar shoe. Look up lace up platform boot :)
ReplyDeletei have no problem withthe knock off Lita's in fact i bought my in downtown L.A. and i have 5 pairs one in black leather, 3 in multicloured suede and one more in silver glitter and so far ive had no problems with them and they are exactly like the real thing at Nordstrom, i swear you cannot tell the difference, they are the same width as the real thing same height and very well made. They cost me 39.99 each. So dont feel bad about having knockoffs when i first saw the JC's at nordstrom i saw them and because of the price tag i forgot about them. 6 months later i was in the Garment district in L.A. i saw the knock offs but i had forgot where i had seen them prior, so i bought them thinking they were so Hot! so i remembered later who originally later had made them and like ive said ive had NO problems whatsoever. Do what you feel is best! God bless.
