River Island<\/a> has fast become our go-to retailer to shop expensive looking fashion pieces<\/a>, but for a fraction of the price. <\/p>\n

So, it\u2019s unsurprising the high street<\/a> retailer has done it once again – this time with its footwear. <\/p>\n

The Perspex Mule Heeled Sandals<\/a> resemble Amina Muaddi\u2019s Glass Alexa Mules 95, though they come with a price tag that is \u00a3500 less than the designer alternative. <\/p>\n

These heels are available in two colours, including a brown Perspex and green, though the former has sold out due to popular demand. <\/p>\n

\"Perspex<\/a><\/p>\n

Green Perspex Mule Heeled Sandals<\/h2>\n

Crafted from a PU upper, and rubber sole, these heels are chic yet durable.The mule design means it is backless, with an open toe front. The skinny heel measures 8cm in height. The pistachio green hue is available in UK shoe sizes 2 to 9, though sizes are selling fast. <\/p>\n

River Island\u2019s Perspex Mule Heeled Sandals<\/a> have been crafted by PU on the upper shoe, and a rubber sole. <\/p>\n

The Perspex textured design offers an ultra luxe look, especially as it is a slightly sheer finish, which we know is a fashion trend right now. <\/p>\n

The open toe and backless mule elongates the legs, and makes these shoes easy to slip on and off. <\/p>\n

The stiletto heel measures 8cm in height, which is slightly shorter than the designer alternative from Amina Muaddi<\/a>. <\/p>\n

Amina Muaddi heels<\/a> look very similar, as they boast the same open toe, backless detail and stiletto heel, though this designer shoe measures 9.5cm in height. <\/p>\n

The premium design has been crafted from a synthetic outer fabric, and features leather sole and leather lining. <\/p>\n

While River Island\u2019s design comes in two colours, those hues are quite niche, we must admit. Though we think that\u2019s an asset as it can add colour to the simplest of outfits – even jeans and a T-shirt combo. Whereas Amina Muaddi\u2019s heels are a clear perspex, which can show any dirt quite easily. <\/p>\n

Whether you pair these heels with jeans and a shirt, or a blazer, a dress, maybe even a jumpsuit, you are bound to be flooded with compliments. <\/p>\n

Let\u2019s not forget that Amina Muaddi\u2019s heels retail for \u00a3595, which is over \u00a3500 more than River Island\u2019s affordable alternatives. <\/p>\n
