These affordable alternatives allow you to achieve the high-end looks you love without emptying your wallet. In this article, we’ll take you on a journey through the world of footwear dupes, revealing the best ways to elevate any outfit without breaking the bank.

Isabel Marant’s Cowboy Boots Dupe from Stradivarius
We wouldn’t call this an exact dupe, but it sure is the same style. Cowboy boots, in general, are now in, and we think the ankle boot version of them will be a big deal this summer. Stradivarius’ metallic version is even cooler than the basic white Isabel Marant ones, which cost $499. Stradivarius is also known for its good quality, which means these boots will last you for a while.
