Yves Saint Laurent Tribute Platform Sandals - Reader Request *Updated 5/14/10*

See bottom of post for update.

These sandals are super cute and retail for $760 at Saks Fifth Avenue. They are very popular, despite the price tag, and don't stay in stock for very long. (Also available in black)



Can't afford to splurge? Try these Aileen gladiator sandals from Bakers Shoes for only $79.95. The heel on these is a *little shorter* at 4 3/4 inches, compared to the YSL's 5 1/4 inch heel. They are also available in black. Click here to purchase.



*Update - 6/16/09* - I just had another request for these sandals, so if you missed out on the Bakers version (now sold out, at least online) then here is another option for you!

These Gianni Bini Uptown sandals retail for $98 and are available in both black and tan.


*Update - 5/14/10* - The previous two options for this sandal are no longer available, but I did find another option that retails for $79.95 from Steve Madden. They aren't as close as the previous options, but it is still a great alternative if you're on a budget. This shoe is available in black or blush patent, as well as cream, denim, and leopard.

Reader Ivy emailed this option from Bakers to me, which is another alternative as well. It has a slightly different woven front (but the difference is pretty subtle, I actually missed it the first time I looked!) and retails for $49.99. Click here to purchase.
