Ask BB: Theyskens' Ankle Strap Wedge Pumps for Less

I'm currently obsessed with Theyskens' Theory wedges. (shown below). I'm a huge fan of the ombre, but would love the style in a solid as well. However, the price tag for these is pretty steep, so if you could find an affordable version of them, I would be overcome with gratitude! —Elizabeth H.



Theyskens' Theory at ShopStyle



I've loved these wedges ever since I saw my girl Nitrolicious wearing them (here). I'm surprised no one has done a DIY version of the ombre yet with some black spray paint - or maybe they have and I just haven't seen it! Anyway, here are some looks for less:

First, we have the ALDO "Winchel" available in a limited number of sizes for $67 at 6pm.com. They're having a huge sitewide clearance sale now as well if you want to check that out.



Aldo also has a style called the "Plumb" which lacks the ankle strap but features a pointy toe that's an important feature of the Theory wedge. These are $71.62 (down from $143.24) at asos.com.

Next, we have the Topshop "Salute" for $124.



Finally, Ann Taylor has an ankle strap wedge pump in a beautiful cobalt blue, but they're on the pricey side at $224 (down from $248). If you can find them for less in store, these might be worth it.



Hope this helps! xoBB

I saw the blue Ann Taylor shoes a few days ago on the clearance rack for 40% off!
