Steven vs Alloy Sandals?

Posted by kim on May 1, 2009

Just another example of “If you can’t tell the difference, why pay the difference?”…

Steven by Steve Madden Bianna flat thong sandals (left) in cream leather (also available in  black leather, brown leather, coral leather and metallic multi), $129.95 from Zappos.com

Seashell Sandals (right) only available in ivory, $29.50 from Alloy.com (okay, so it’s “manmade leather”, all the better for the vegans out there)
