Jul 14 Designer Looks for Less

I am a big believer in designer items.

I know the prices can be outrageous, and there are definitely some items that are NOT worth the $10,000+ price tag, in fact most items that expensive aren’t worth it. But I do believe there are some items that are worth saving for the real thing (for example, this year for my birthday I am saving for the Hermés Oran Sandal). I have found some great dupes over the years, some even fooling sales associates at the real store. So here are some of my tried and true favorites

1. Tiffany Hardware Necklace

The Tiffany hardware collection is beautiful. The pieces are stunning, timeless pieces that will be classics. However, they are wildly expensive. My favorite is the link design, but I cannot afford the real thing, and with this replacement from 6th Borough Boutique, I definitely do not need to! I went shopping for a wedding gift in Tiffany’s with it on and I had FOUR different employees tell me how much they loved the necklace and it was their favorite piece of the collection. This dupe is so worth it, and if you use code justjessicastyle you get 15% off. I swear by this and wear it all the time!

2. Hermés Oran Sandal

As I mentioned before, I am actively saving for the real thing. They are a classic, well made shoe that are never going out of style. That being said, I have had the knock off pair for a couple of years and they have served me well. They give you the style without paying the price. I have worn them into the ground, so to say I got good use out of them would be an understatement.

3. Bottega Jodie Bag

I love everything Bottega Veneta does, unfortunately I can’t afford it! There are plenty of dupes out there but this one on amazon is a really great option. It gives you the same vibe for a fraction of the price!

4. Chanel Kitten Heels

Chanel pieces are unmatched, even the dupes are obviously not the real thing. They don’t come close! But as Chanel prices skyrocket, we continue to find the same style in a different place. These shoes aren't the same, but they offer you the same idea, a classic style, for a good price.
