These Valentino Sculpture Lace Pumps are to die for. I certainly appreciate couture clothing for being works of art, but these shoes could be showcased at the Musee D’Orsay tomorrow! Can you guess how much they cost? As I said to a friend yesterday…if you have to ask, you can’t afford them. At $4700, these won’t be in my closet anytime soon.
Today’s Frugal Friday offers up sexy lace stilettos. While none compare to the Valentino Sculpture Lace Pumps, the below, affordable pumps are still cute in their own right.
At $885, the Valentino Lace d’Orsay pump isn’t exactly a bargain, but it is cheaper than its $4700 sister.
I love these Pour La Victoire Elena Peep Toe Shoeties. Like the Valentino Sculpture Lace Pumps, they have both a leather sole and upper beneath the lace. The gorgeous 4″ heel takes you the same heights as the Valentino, and at $249, they’re still pricey, but more affordable than both Valentinos above.
These $137 Menbur Monaco Peep Toe Pumps are cute. The rosette on the peep toe is very Valentino, if you look at the bags and shoes in the Valentino Spring Summer 2010 collection. Upon closer look, these pumps aren’t as well made as the Brazilian Pour La Victoire brand, but on a budget, they give you the Valentino look without the Valentino price tag.
Which lace shoe is your favourite?

Love the Lace D’Orsay ones by Valentino. They will look great with my lululemons and TNA hoodie when I go pick up starbys in the morning. Because of course, after I buy these I will not be able to afford the matching dress, and will have to make ends meet somehow.
