Jessica Simpson's Bruges-alikes

Jsbruges Jessica Simpson has done it again. Here's more proof, if you needed it, that her footwear 'designs' involve taking designer shoes that she's been famous for wearing and creating cheap versions of them. I'm not sure how Christian Louboutin is going to feel about these 'Barb' pumps, a blatant homage to the much-copied 'Bruges' pump, but fans are snapping them up at the bargain price of $78.95. They're available in black or white patent, and there's also a slingback, peep toe version, the 'Amy', also in red. [Thanks to Issa]

Hey ladies, I finally found a pair at Baker's Shoes in Dallas, TX. At the NorthPark Mall. The Black Patent Barbs. Got'em for about $80.00. I love them! They are such a great look. They fit true to size, but are tight in the toe. I'm going to try and stretch them by wearing a pair of thick socks around the house.

Try BAKERS shoes.

I just got my pair of Black Barb's from Nordstroms today!!! I was on a wait list for 3 weeks. Nordstrom in Providence, Rhode Island got a shipment in this morning.I know they don't have them in red. They also have the Amy. When I picked them up they said they were going fast but they do have some in stock!!!! As for sizing, I wear a 6.5 and got them in a 6.5. They fit perfect. They front is a little narrow but the actual size fit like a 6.5. I wore them with a pair of socks around the house and they streched out enough to fit perfectly!! They are so much better in person. I am so happy with them. Worth the wait:)

Girls,

Elle Fashion Forum has a thread. A new replica by Luichiny shoes look so pretty. A gal will be selling them for $90.
