Would you all mind just talking amongst yourselves for a few minutes? We&#8217;re busy gazing at these shoes. Both of them. Sure, the Louboutins are shinier and sleeker, but the Dune versions are only £85, which is a big saving on the circa £400 you&#8217;d have paid for the Louboutins, if they were still in stock.

Spot the difference?
Nope, we can’t either: which is odd, considering that the dress on the left is by Kate Moss from Topshop (the 50s-style sundress that was part of the summer collection), and the one on the right is by the Apart label at UK catalogue company Look Again. Uncanny, huh?

Dorothy Perkins are far from the only high street brand who&#8217;ve found themselves &#8220;inspired&#8221; by Balmain&#8217;s famous crystal studded strappy sandals this year: they&#8217;re simply the most recent. They&#8217;re also one of the least expensive &#8211; their diamante shoes are only £60, which compares very favorably to the $2110 you&#8217;d have paid for the originals.

Balmain have a lot to answer for right now. Mostly shoulder pads and dresses that can be described using the phrase &#8220;futuristic&#8221;, to be honest.
Ever since Kate Moss wore THAT dress, though, the high street have been falling over themselves to see who can be most &#8220;inspired&#8221; by it. So far we think Asda are [...]]]></description>

Kudos to Officer Lauren for catching Wet Seal in the act of impersonating Christian Louboutin&#39;s Miss Fortune platforms with their own lace-up slingbacks.&#0160; What puzzles us about this one is that, with a whole world of Louboutin loveliness to choose from, Wet Seal chose these particular shoes which,&#0160;er, aren&#39;t so lovely,&#0160;as their &#34;inspiration&#34;, but of [...]]]></description>

 Chanel&#39;s Russian Doll Bag has already &#34;Inspired&#34; at least one high street retailer: we showed you Topshop&#39;s take on the look back in July, but now here&#39;s ASOS&#39;s version, which comes in at £15.
No, it&#39;s never going to be mistaken for Chanel, but would you buy it anyway?
