These are great comparison finds. For most of them I really can't tell the difference. Especially with the corduroy red pants.

They're all so awesome, I really wouldn't care. I actually saw the Pirate Booty dress yesterday and decided it was too pricey. Thanks for sharing all these affordable alternatives!

Love this post! I am the kind of girl who always falls in love with pretty items with a heavy price tag (before seeing the price). It's nice to know there are plenty of good alternatives that are more wallet friendly :-) I actually like most of the cheaper items better in this post!

Loved the dress from threadscense and the shorts from anarchy :) More of these posts thank you :D

Oh my gosh such great finds! It took me till the 'threadsence' pants to even notice that it was a bargain comparison. I'm buying that first white dress from threadsence right now!

I always splurge on pants and shoes, because they generally will get more wear than dress and the like.
