You've probably noticed I have a penchant for anything and everything studded. These Steve Madden sandals are no exception. But at almost $90, they're out of my budget. It's a shame, because I'm picturing them with everything from black leggings and slouchy tees to cut off jean shorts and funky peasant tops.

Thankfully, Alloy has a great alternative! They're only $34.50, which is still semi pricey for sandals, but is a price I can totally swing! Hooray!
