The viral styles this year are SO GOOD. We are talking sherpa belt bags, chunky Mary Jane heels, rhinestone boho bags, and so much more! I found the best viral styles for this year but I did it modestly... on a bit of a budget if you will.

Viral Styles: Save vs. Splurge
These viral styles are perfect for spoiling yourself without spoiling your bank account. I’ve researched high and low to find the best look-a-likes and similar styles to these viral fashion pieces. I’m super excited to share my discoveries!!
Since Christmas time is upon us, I created this post to help with gift ideas for those who love high-end things and trending styles. I really went all over the board with these. Without chatting too much, I hope you enjoy these viral styles that don’t cost an arm and a leg.
Happy shopping!
Viral Styles on a Budget
Trends will come and go but style lasts forever! I love keeping up the trends and finding alternatives to best-selling pieces. I absolutely love sharing deals and steals but don't get me wrong, I LOVE the real thing. Sometimes I can't justify a massive price tag for a trendy piece. That's where my love for hunting for look-a-likes comes handy. I do this often at the thrift stores in my city but I've also put my skills to work online!
Platform Perforated G Clogs

You either love these or hate these. I really like how unique they are but I don't love them enough to pay over $500 for a pair! I know you are paying for the Gucci label (SUPER cute design!) and quality but Jeffrey Campbell has an amazing clog that looks almost identical!
Splurge:
Gucci — $550
Save:
Jeffrey Campbell — $60
The Cassette Padded Leather Crossbody Bag

The Bottega Veneta Cassette Padded Leather Crossbody Bag is a gem. She is beauty, she is grace. It's easy to love this little crossbody bag. The woven design is perfect and I'm so drawn to the vibrant green color.
Splurge:
Bottega Veneta — $4,500
Save:
JW PEI — $130
Chloe Betty Rain Boots

Chloe didn't have to go all out like this! These rain boots are SO cute and go with everything! I've tried these on in Nordstrom a couple of weeks ago and was sooo close to buying them but I ended up sleeping on that decision and instead, I found a perfect look-a-like from Ego Shoes!
Double Crystal Bow Pointed Toe Pump

Mach & Mach released a gorgeous pair of rhinestone studded heels and they have taken the entire internet by storm. I mean, just look at them! My favorite color is this gorgeous red and surprise! Amazon carries a very similar heel!
Splurge:
Mach & Mach — $1,133
Save:
MissHeel — $60
Mini Hera Metal Mesh Hobo Bag

If you are a rhinestone girly, this is the perfect purse. It's eye-catching and takes your outfit from 0 to 100. This is a Cult Gaia bag with a thiccc price tag but a similar bag can be found on our favorite place, Amazon!
Classic Mini Platform Uggs

It's UGG season baby! I recently got my hands on the Ultra Minis and to say that I'm obsessed is quite the understatement. The Mini Platforms have been sold out EVERYWHERE and I haven't been able to snag a pair yet but Ego Shoes has a very similar style!
Sherpa Belt Bag

Lululemon knew what they were doing when they created this sherpa belt bag. I seriously use mine every single day in the winter. I have both the black (shown) and the cream. It is such a cozy looking bag but I know they sell out insanely fast. Luckily, Amazon once again comes in clutch with a very similar one!
The Super Puff Super World Vest

If you live in a cold place, I could not recommend the Aritzia Super Puff Super World Vest! It's an essential vest in my wardrobe. This Amazon (surprise!) vest is a good look-a-like with a little less "puff"
SKIMS Cotton Ribbed Tank Set

Skims is definitely the hottest brand on the internet right now. Kim Kardashian created the brand and has single handedly taken over the world of under garments and leisure wear. If you can't get your hands on a pricey set of the Skim's ribbed tanks, give Hollister a try! SUPER similar fit and feel.
Versace Satin Platform Pumps

I think I saved the best for last! These hot pink Versace platform pumps are THE heel of the year. We are in the middle of a "platform" moment and everyone is LOVING this particular style of heel. I am not a heel girl so I can't find myself spending over $100 on them so these Madden Girl heels are perfect!
Splurge: Versace—$498
Save: Madden Girl — $30
