Ruffles & Studded Boots (My Favorite Designer Dupe}

I’ve long (and I mean LONG) coveted the amazing Chloe Susanna Stud Boots. But with an almost $1,400 price tag, I haven’t been able to pull the trigger on these amazing booties. This fall, while perusing some of my favorite discount sites, I found these awesome designer dupes and HAD to try them! At about a 10th of the price, I figured it was worth a try… Full disclosure, the packaging arrived less than glamorous (it traveled all the way from China). So I was fairly nervous when I saw the package. But I opened it and the style is glorious! I’ve now worn them about a dozen times and I never had to go through an awful “breaking-in your boots” phase. Zero blisters, and they’re extremely comfortable! I’ve worn them for several hours at a time with no complaints. And I’ve never worn them without getting at least a handful of compliments. They are the shining star to almost any outfit. (In the warmer months, I think they pair perfectly with a cute dress or skirt, or even jean shorts and a tank or tee.)

This exact top is no longer available in this color, but I found an almost exact option (same designer) on clearance for $20! (From what I can tell, the ruffles are just placed a little differently.) I also found a navy blue option that is 50% off right now for less than $30! (I paid full price for this top, so these are a total score!) And navy will transition perfectly into the spring and summer months with white jeans, shorts or a cute pencil skirt! My bag is no longer available in this color, but I’ve linked a black option. It is the BEST bag. The softest leather, several compartments and I LUV the unique style. Also, paired with my FAVORITE black denim. This outfit was an overall fav of mine. All items linked below…

  1. Hello! I’m considering purchasing these, but nervous with the long distance shipping. How do they run for size? Have they held up well? Thanks! 🙂

    1. They seem to run true to size. I’m a size 7 and the 7 fits just right. Don’t be alarmed when they show up in a cheapy looking box! I’m telling you they’ve been an awesome boot for such an awesome price! 🙂
