Like the great and stylish Princess Diana before her, all eyes remain upon Duchess Kate. And everything this young woman puts on, from eyeliner to jewelry to hoisery, and of course, to wardrobe, gets looked at through a fine-tooth comb. And then, of course, the item quickly sells out!
The royal buzz around here these days, are those elegant nude pumps by L.K. Bennett, known as the Sledge. Kate has been slipping into these sophisticated shoes upon a a number of occassions. And we notice she was photographed wearing them a few times at the Queen's Diamond Jubilee.
The L.K. Bennett Sledge is a classic pump in the classic neutral nude shade. You can wear them anywhere with any color. And now, you can find them ONLINE at Nordstrom's for $325.
Nordstrom's describes the Duchess' favorite nude shoe:
A perfectly-sized platform lends elegant height to a sleekly versatile, round-toe pump with timeless appeal.
Approx. heel height: 4" with a 1/2" platform.
Leather upper, lining and sole.
Made in Spain.
If $325 is a bit out of your fashionista budget range, well, we've found a super copy-cat pair for UNDER $20!! And these are very chic, too:
Check them out in the bottom photo. These are from Forever 21 for the rock-bottom price of only $19.80. OMG!
Forever 21 has all the details:
A pair of faux leather pumps featuring an exposed platform and high heel. Round toe. Padded insole. Textured outsole.
- 6" approx. back heel height; 3" approx. shaft height from high point heel; 1.3" approx. platform height
- Upper: PU; insole: 100% PU; outsole 1: 100% rubber
- Imported
Sizes: 5.5 through 9.
We realize there is a major difference in the shoe materials and craftsmanship of the L.K. Bennett Sledge, but still, if you want to copy a classic nude pump that you CAN get away with looking polished and chic, try on the Forever 21 Platform Nude Pump. And add a little royal cha-ching to your step and pocketbook.
I actually like the Forever21 pair better than Kates. I'm buying a pair ASAP. THANX!
