Couture Corner: Chloe Inspiration

Every so often I see an article of clothing that I really, really, really want. There is no other way to express it. Sometimes, but not always, the article in question is really, really, really, expensive. Most of the time I’m cool with something being a tad out of my price range cause I know that I will re-create the outfit in my own way. But sometimes…There are items that take my breath away and make me consider selling coke. Before I do that however, I remind myself that haute couture cannot exist without street fashion and vise versa. I prefer getting inspired by the piece and creating a look that is similar instead of buying an imitation.

Here are some pricey but pretty picks for the week

Chloe Raised Leaf Boots: $1490- GORGEOUS!!!! The detail on the leaves make these treasures a must have for Fall but they are a tad out of my price range.

The Alternative

Chinese Laundry- Definitely not the same boot but retails for about $130 and helps create the same look

This Steve Madden creation is quite different from the look I’m trying to acheive but the impecable design can still be worn over a pair of skinny jeans and makes a statement. Retails for about $150
