Spot the Real: Steve Madden Fringe Heeled Sandals

Can you spot the real Steve Madden fringe sandals?
I will completely understand it if you feel an overwhelming urge to hug your computer right now, because this find is Just. That. Good. Yes ladies I've stumbled upon an incredible look for less of Steve Madden's super haute 'Fringly' sandals ($129.95, nordstrom.com). You may have drooled over these beauties during the Nordstrom Anniversary Sale (or the very similar 'Staarz' model) because every top-tier fashion blogger seemed to be flaunting them...and with good reason! These heels are so fierce and so on trend for fall. The look for less is just $44.99 now (down from $65) and also comes in cobalt blue. Think you can spot the real Steve Maddens?

Shoe Debut: Zendaya's White Shirt, Destroyed Jeans and Feathered Heels Look for Less

Zendaya Coleman wears a white button down shirt, destroyed denim and strappy heels for the debut of her new shoe collection, Daya.
I think it's every girl's dream to launch her own shoe collection, and now singer/actress Zendaya is doing just that with the debut of Daya, due out in Spring 2016. The collection, with prices ranging from $125-$175, aims to be "the perfect balance between ‘Sex Appeal’ and ‘Sporty Lux’" and features statement heels, modern flats and the go-to high top sneaker. Since you can't shop Daya by Zendaya just yet, I've recreated the outfit she wisely wore for her launch event - a simple white button down and destroyed denim let her feathered high heels shine and take centerstage in this look. Read on to snag the look for less...
