Jessica Simpson: Knockoff Shoe Queen

Kevin Mazur/WireImage

Jessica Simpson has an enviable shoe wardrobe packed with every hot designer label — maybe that’s why her namesake shoe line has some of the best knockoffs around! The fancy footwear line includes many styles comparable to high-end designer versions (think Christian Louboutin and Chloe) for a mere fraction of the cost. Check out these sexy leather Cam wedges (quite similar to last season’s Chloe) for only $79, hundreds less than the designer version, available at Nordstrom.com. The Abba pump, $90, is a great faux version of a similar $710 pair created by Christian Louboutin. Yes, we all long to be wearing the real thing like Ms. Simpson herself, but for most of us, this is a trendy (and realistic!) alternative.

I own a pair and love them, and they do not look cheap at all, they’re fantastic quality and utterly stylish.

stellar ;)

Who cares that they haven’t a designer logo ? I think I won’t care, cause my wallet won’t be totally empty when I’ll buy them :) ;)
They’re amazing :D

I own 2 pairs of jessica simpson shoes, and they are both very cute albeit a bit uncomfortable! but then again i can’t imagine she’s any more comfortable in 4-inch Christian Louboutins, even though she paid $650 more!
In general, if you’re looking for cute trendy well-made but affordable footwear, jessica simpson shoes are worth a look.

Isn’t the objective of being a designer to be original. To me this is just another way for Jessica to make money without doing any of the work. The designers she is knockin’ off spend months coming up with the new designs for their shoe lines. They strive to bring something new, and original to shoppers. I would be SO ashamed if I was Jessica to know that I am taking credit and earning profit for copying someone elses work.

It’s also a bit of an insult that she sell her knock off shoes at the price she does, just because it has her name on it.
Save your money, and buy the shoes at stores like GO.JANE, and FOREVER21, ALDO, NINE WEST, even WALMART and PAYLESS, which all probably sell a version of the exact shoe for alot less. If for some reason you must have Jessica’s signature on your shoe, use a marker, and sign it yourself. (She’s a copy-cat, I’m sure she won’t mind if you’re one too.)

I agree with Charla about Jess’s Dad. How old are these girls and they still need daddy as a manager? Anyways, I couldn’t abid buying something that is twice my mortgage. My hubby and I have a young family to take care of and I wouldn’t even think of spending that much on shoes. (I couldn’t wear heals that high. I’d fall.) I’ll just stick to my cheap ol’ pair of comfy shoes.

Since most of us can’t afford the real ones, I love the fact she is bringing hot designs to a more affordable price. LOVE her shoes, too!!!

Corissa

Her shoes are simply fun, fashionable and comfortable at a very reasonable price. I love them!

i’m not interested in knock-off ANYthing, whether these shoes are cute or not. you know jessica herself doesn’t wear them, & i will not be contributing to her lifestyle by purchasing anything endorsed by her. she lacks creativity or originality in almost everything she does!

LS

Hmmm, I’d have to try on a pair or two since I must be comfy on my feet! Jessica’s shoe line is adorable, but I’m never willing to sacrifice comfort for style. I must have both! Thank goodness wedges came back…they are supportive and sexy all at the same time.

Jordan

OMGosh!.. i love them shoes.. they are S000 cute!..
