I love shopping, fashion, and decorating – all things that cost money.  However, I do not love paying full price for anything.  I also try to find look-a-likes whenever possible.  Some people who can afford to buy the real thing might judge me, but I don’t care.  I call it being trendy on a dime.  Here’s a fine example, for the past few years, I’ve been eyeing a pair of Jack Roger’s sandals.  Jackie O. wore them, so you know they are fabulous, but I just haven’t been able to fork over the $100 for a pair of sandals.  It’s just way, way, way out of my budget.  I’ve looked around every where to see if I could find any knock-offs, and I finally was able to last month.

Here’s the actually Jack Roger’s sandal:

And here is what I was able to find for $15 at my local Shoe Show:

Sure, the soles of my shoe aren’t made from wood like the real thing, but when the shoes are on my feet, can you really even tell? I’m quite happy with my purchase and saving over $85!

What’s something you’ve been eyeing that’s quite pricey? Were you able to find a cheap look-a-like?
