The YSL Imperiale has been one of the “it” heels of 2009 on the feet of many celebrity from Katy Perry to Lady GaGa. It’s unique wedge + platform like heel has found a soft spot with many bloggers too.

The YSLs are now on sale almost everywhere, but if the price tag is still a bit over your budget – I’ve found that Dolce Vita does a nice impersonation (knock off) of the pumps with their “April” Platform pumps – and for only a fraction of the price of the YSL Imperiale.

YSL Imperiale $795 at Saks
Dolce Vita April Pumps $180 at Shopbop.com

I know its the hot new trend everyone from Micha Barton to Kate Moss (Shoebunny) are wearing them, but be extra cautious if you have short legs because they do cut the length of the leg. They’re definitely not everyone’s cup of tea, some people wouldn’t be caught dead in a pair…but they do look great with some styles and if you’ve got legs like a gazelle..:)

I first came upon a pair of Dolce Vita in the Lower East Side and have even taken my obsession online to Dolce Vita at Girlshop.com which has them for $173

to its cheaper $26 alternative at Gojane.com

and if only I could afford these Christian Louboutin Ankle Boots!!
