Sarah Jessica Parker - Get The Celebrity Look For Less

This look for less is a reader request from my twitter bud @memesw. She tweeted, “@TheLooksForLess can you find the SJP/CarrieBradshaw white Halston look and do ‘the look for less’?” We’d love to! We found Sarah Jessica Parker on the set of “Sex In The City 2″ on the Upper East Side of NYC. This is 1st day of filming and Carrie Bradshaw is looking so hot in a pair of glittering Christian Louboutin Pigalle heels, a white Halston heritage dress, and a gold Chanel clutch.

Blue Suede Pumps - Get The Look For Less

My Twitter bud @LindsTR tweeted, “@TheLooksForLess Any recommendations on cobalt blue suede pumps?”. I have been looking at so much black and gray for fall that I couldn’t wait to add a little color to my posts. This request deserved a bit more than a tweet response.

After an exhaustive search, all of my finds came from one designer, Steve Madden. He has several suede pumps to choose from and almost all selections come in a variety of colors. Lovin his selection of blue suede pumps. I really wanted to include a selection of pumps all under $100, but I couldn’t resist adding option number 5, at a price tag of $109, as it is easily my favorite and only slightly over $100. I saw these pumps a few months ago featured in Nylon magazine.

Vanessa Hudgens Givenchy Birdcage Bootie - Get The Look For Less

We found Vanessa Hudgens wearing these kick ass Givenchy Birdcage Booties on and off of the red carpet. They’re also a fav of Kim Kardashian. These may easily be worn with a dress or jeans and a tee for a more casual look. They are so rock star, which is so my style (yes, I am a Rihanna, Gwen Stefani wannabe). These cut out ankle booties sold out at Endless.com with a price tag of $465!

The Steal is an online exclusive from Charlotte Russe for only $39.99, for a difference of $426 from the Real. I actually prefer the steal due to the platform, which makes walking in a super high heel a bit easier and more comfortable. Go for an edgy look with these Triangular Laser Cut Booties featuring a faux leather, triangular laser cut details throughout, peep toe, elastic side panel, 4 1/2″ stiletto heel, and a lightly padded insole. Faux leather upper and rubber sole.

These flats are so adorable that I had to have two deals of the day. Love the criss-cross elastic lace up straps on these skimmer flats. Who said modern couldn’t be comfortable? Available in black, camel/black, and cobalt/black. Get the Deal of the Week from Urban Outfitters for $34.00.

Halle Berry - Get The Celebrity Look For Less

Halle Berry is one hot mama with a hot piece of candy on her arm. Oh, so unfair! I’m so happy that she is back to her super short hair. I had this same do a few years ago, grew it out for my wedding, and now I’m afraid to chop it off, haha. Maybe I’ll get the nerve again soon.

Charee - Get The Look For Less

How fun is this look for less by my Twitter bud Chareé (@stylishandsexy)? I absolutely love her style and, what’s awesome about this look, is that she is mixing so many trends, but totally worked it out!!! She pulled it off by mixing solids – the cage pump, oversized clutch, and wide belt with a beautiful paisley patterned puff sleeve dress. The colors are beautiful! She picked up the Michael Antonio cage pumps at ShoeDazzle (Kim Kardashian’s shoe site) for only $39.99!

Chareé wrote, “I wore this last week to a birthday party. My daughter snapped the picture before I left.” Love it!!!

Random Love – Oprah & The Black Eyed Peas

It’s no secret that Oprah has forbidden her staff to ever surprise her again ever since they brought out Mary Tyler Moore on an episode of her show and she went into the ugly cry, but this was a goodie featuring the Black Eyed Peas. It was aired live at Oprah’s 24th season kickoff party in the middle of downtown Chicago. How do you surprise her with 20,000 people? I love it so much! It’s freakin happiness in a clip!
