Saturday night we made it over to our friend’s closing at Bandit Gallery. She’s part of an amazing artist collective known as From Here to There. There was a friendly crowd with some celebs looking to buy some art. From what I heard, Dntel from the Postal Service stopped by to dj, but I was so into the conversations around me I didn’t notice.
I had to post these photos of the super gorgeous Swiss model Serge M. and these shoes I just wanted to fling into my purse! The shoe girl had great style, but these deserved their own photo.

I haven’t posted a Fashion Doppelgänger in awhile, so I was thrilled to come across these beauts! Though a much more “popular” site recently used the phrase “Fashiongänger” and more than once had the same knock-offs feature a day after mine, I am happy to bring you my most recent discovery – Christian Louboutin v Forever 21.
We all know that Forever 21 is the biggest knock-off offender of all, but at a time like this I am a bit offended by the $835 Louboutins that look like something the strippers over at Sam’s Hofbrau would wear. There have been many wannabees to the Rodita Zip Platforms but I can say I am a little impressed by the $27.80 red [though appears coral] Zipper Chic Pumps from Forever 21. They don’t look nearly as stripper-esque!

This Fall, great shoes are lining stores from Third Street to the Glendale Galleria. I truly cannot believe how many marvelously stylish shoes are out there right now, and plenty under $200. [Don't get me started on the $695 Dries Van Noten's I am keeping my eye on.] I picked these up over the weekend, and I couldn’t help think of a conversation a friend and I had about our love of the marriage of black and brown. Keep them coming!
One of the things I keep in mind when I go shopping is WWCD – What would Carine [Roitfeld] do? When I have this mantra, it is easy to steer clear from shoe disasters and regretable unflattering skirts. She has consisitently worn the best shoes in the world and always before you see them on anyone else. Yes, she has the benefit of being the editor of Paris Vogue, but she never gets it wrong. Thank you for your non-stop inspiration Carine.

In June we were the first to bring you the Fashion Doppelgänger of Chloe, in the form of Forever 21. Now there is a TOPSHOP version known as the Penelope Premium Shoe Boot which will run you £75.00. We are very satisfied with our F21 purchase, but if you want to add another to your collection these look pretty good because the F21 are SOLD OUT online!
Could it be all the positive blogging & photos from Taghrid, who owns them in both colors?
