{ maniac }

I love love love shoes. I appreciate all styles but nothing tugs at my heartstrings more than a good HIIIGHHH heel pump. I'm 5'6" so I love looking a lot taller than I am. Because of my love affair with heels it is only fitting that I would have an obsession with Brian Atwood's "Maniac" pump. A stiletto heel + hidden platform = my dream shoe. Maniac is available in every color you can imagine but, I have a weakness for the metallic version. I'm not alone:

from l to r: katy perry, anna paquin, kate hudson, kristen bell, kerry washington

from l to r: ashley tisdale and emma roberts

Luckily for those of you who share my obsession with Maniac, Aldo has released their new "Bresmeth" pump. I mean these shoes aren't quite twins but they're definitely first cousins. Bresmeth comes in 5 gorgeous colors: black patent, bone patent, bronze metallic, navy metallic, and med. silver metallic (my personal favorite.) On top of that, they carry a $90 price tag. That's compared to the $525 you'd have to shell out for the Maniac.

VS.

What do you think? Do they look similar enough or would you give in to the urge to splurge?
