Every Day I'm Shufflin'

It's the first week of September and though it's been years since I graduated, I've fastidiously kept up with the tradition of getting a new pair of back-to-school shoes.  When I saw the sparkly new loafers from J.Crew, I got tingly all over but the price slapped me in the face.  $248?  For sparkly gold loafers?  I'm far from practical but that, as Rachel Zoe says, is BA-NA-NAS.  Leave it to ALDO to come up with a less expensive version and though they're not quite as perfect, they give the same effect for 1/4 of the price.  Now that's the kind of fraction I can totally understand. The Killion Glitter Loafer is at ALDO stores nationwide or online here. 

P.S - OOOOHH, just spied these sparkly silver beauties.  LOVE them even more!
