These actually remind me more of the peep-toe, incredibly high Lanvin heels (but, of course, in a more realistic design) than the Louboutins.

What I want are an exact copy of those damn Bruges. Everything I've seen either has a peeptoe, has extra straps, lacks a stacked heel, lacks a stacked platform, lacks the patent shine, is the wrong color, is a wedge, etc. I have looked EVERYWHERE. How come nobody's knocked off this exact style if it's so popular? Even Steve Madden just replicated the Michael Kors Newton pump with the Cristan, so it couldn't be a matter of style infringement. The Bruges would be far more popular, so whoever is the first to copy them has my money!

Ah, I wish I had gone ahead and bought the Sechelles Louboutin lookalikes when they were selling them, they sold out extremely quickly though!

To me, they're kind of a melding of the Lanvins and the Louboutins. I think they're gorgeous (especially the black patent) and ordered a pair a week ago. I think the peeptoe will be better than the closed toe for summer anyway.

Topshop has a Louboutin lookalike, although with a shorter heel.

Yes, the peep toe will be all the rage up here in the north in about one month. If you do not have your Lalos by then, you will be completely out of luck.
