Look for Less: Amerie

Hey, Hey!
So Madame. "Insure my legs" Amerie looked smashing during a recent shopping trip in London...

A few readers wrote in, needing to know how to get her look for less. Thankfully, I found the solution!
You can get her dress for $69.50 at none other than THE GAP.

Unfortch, it's not quite as easy to cop her uber-expensive $800 teal Balenciaga Le Dix Bag (similar to this one)...

...but you can give off the same effect with this $36 Shiraleah Candace Tote...

...from www.ebags.com.
Her nude pumps are tres hot, and if you're feeling ballerific, you can slip on these $690 Deccollette Zeppa Christian Louboutin pumps...

...or not. They're so hot, they're totally sold out at www.net-a-porter.com.
No matter. Just pop on these Nine West pumps...

...they're more affordable at $93 at zappos.com
And her cute specs? You can splurge with this $280 pair of Tom Ford Farrah Sunglasses...

...from shopbop.com
But if you MUST save, you can do so with this pair of aviators...

...only $12.50 at delia*s
Smootches!
PS I haven't been getting my mags on schedule (moving woes), but I was sincerely delighted when I flipped open my (late) July issue of Elle to find style tributes to two brown divas, Grace Jones...

...and Diana Ross!

Click images to see how to get their looks for an arm and a leg (save a few items).

    The nine west pumps that you reccomend for 93.00 on zappos.com are also on amazon.com for 26.85 with free shipping. They do not have tan but they have coral, dark brown and black. This is a great shoe, i have them:)

    They have those Nine West pumps at Ross in black for 22.99 or less, I saw them there last week. They are like 4.5 inches high so you better know how to work it!

  7. Just wanted to let everyone know they have a cute version of Amerie's dress at jcrew. It was recently on sale for $49.99 with an additional 20% off. It came in baby pink & a peachy pink color. However, it was going very fast. I happened to get mine in time unfortunately without the extra 20% because the larger sizes are always the first to go LOL.
