These gorgeous Chanel Studded Pumps are from the label's Pre-Fall 2009 collection, and were recently spotted on actress Kiera Knightley at the Chanel runway show in Paris. Studs are still (happily!) all the rage, and were all over the Pre-Fall collections. Fashion Week Fall 2009 is about to hit the streets of NYC, and I'm guessing we'll still be seeing studs on the runways come February. If you're crushing on these Chanel pumps as hard as I am, you'll be glad to see I've found us a less pricey alternative.

Check out these Steve Maddens for a great look for less! They're still $150, but when compared to the Chanel originals, which probably skyrocket to prices equal to a month's rent in New York City, they basically cost nothing. The studs are a bit further apart, which is how Madden always gets away with their knockoffs (altering just the smallest details), but they're still a pretty close match!
