Fashion Dupes: Vagabond Dioon Boots VS New Look Chunky Boots

Hi guys!

Hope you're all having a good Blue Monday, which I guess sounds very contradictory but you get me right?

I feel like I haven't done a fashion related post in a while, so I thought I would do one that I have been thinking about for a while - about my new favourite pair of shoes, these beauties.

I got these a couple of weeks ago after being on the hunt for the Vagabond Dioon Elastic Chelsea Boots for ages and they seem to have been discontinued in Office and most other retailers which is so sad! They are so gorgeous. But anyway, I found these wonders in New Look for a fraction of the price of the Vagabond Boots. They are built upon the same concept with the chunky heel and sole and the chelsea boot style. 

I have only had them for a few weeks but as you may be able to see they are extremely well loved and I have worn them pretty much everyday since. They have a slightly more matte finish than the Vagabonds but personally I prefer this and at £24.99 I cannot really make any complaints about them.

These are the Vagabond Dioon's incase you aren't familiar with them, but as you can see they look pretty much identical to my New Look shoes. I am so glad that New Look came out with these because they are so comfy and at least £65 less than the Vagabonds.

2020 Update

It feels crazy to be updating a post that was published in 2014, but I know that the Vagabond Dioons are still hugely popular, and so many of you still visit this page to find some dupes, so here are some great affordable alternative I have found recently - hopefully they are all in stock for a while!

Nasty Gal* - £40

ASOS* - £34.99

ASOS* - £30

ASOS* - £89

Pretty Little Thing* - £35

Public Desire* - £34.99

I style them with pretty much anything, leather-look leggings, dresses, skinny jeans - anything.
They are definitely a winter essential for me!
