Earlier I featured an inspired-by look for these Givenchy Lace-Up Textured Leather Boots ($995, Net-a-porter.com) and now I'm happy to present two alternative looks for less...


First up, the AVA Shiny Lace Up Hiker Boot ($190, Topshop.com). Still not cheap but you could rationalize by saying you're saving $805, haha. But don't use that kind of logic: Remember, $200 spent is still $200 spent, no matter how much you're "saving"! Ok, enough preaching, let's look at our next option which is even sweeter!


Can you believe these are from Newport-News? And they only cost $44. They kinda remind me of these boots by Tory Burch, too, since they don't have a peep-toe. Loves it.
