The Look for Less: Giusseppe Zanotti Sculptural Wedge Pumps

Giusseppe Zanotti's heel-less ankle-strap platform pumps are $775 at shopbop.com. These gravity-defying heels are also available in a sandal version (see the look for less here).



Victoria Justice wore Giusseppe Zanotti wedges with a pink Tadashi Shoji dress to the 2011 TeenNick Halo Awards.


Try this look for less with the aptly named 'Gravityy' wedge by Steve Madden, available in four colors for $99.95 at stevemadden.com.



The Look for Less: DV by Dolce Vita 'Damala' Flats

DV by Dolce Vita's 'Damala' flats are $78.95 at Nordstrom.com. Other retailers carry them in pink, floral, striped or gold. If I had to pick, I'd choose them all.



Not surprisingly, Target has the look for less with their Merona 'Mali' loafer flats, also available in a variety of colors. I saw these in person yesterday and they look fantastic, although it's hard to tell how comfortable they'd be sans socks. Scoop them up for $19.99. (Click either image for more details.)
