We just caught ShoeDazzle copying an old Jessica Simpson shoe style so that got us curious as to what Jessica Simpson is doing to stay ahead of the competition.
Well, Jessica Simpson’s eponymous shoe line is maintaining its ranking in the shoe game by copying from the top trend maker himself: Christian Louboutin. But then again, if there’s anyone to copy from right now it would be Christian Louboutin and no one else.
Here’s the original sandal that Jessica Simpson copied from, the ‘Straratata” from the Christian Louboutin collection dating way back to Spring 2010:
Christian Louboutin Straratata Suede Sandals, $995.00
And here’s the Jessica Simpson knockoff called the ‘Evangel’:
Bermuda Pink Jessica Simpson Evangel Strappy Sandals, $98.00
There may be slight shade differences in the color but you can see that the Jessica Simpson Evangels get the look of the Christian Louboutin Straratatas completely.
The heel is also slightly lower at 4 3/4″ (compared to 5 1/2″ on the CLs) and the platform a bit thicker at 1 2/5″ (compared to 1″), but the overall sexy and vibrant feel to the sandal is not sacrificed.

The one thing Jessica Simpson did change is while the originals are completely suede, the knockoffs have a patent leather trim. But that’s not anything to stop us from getting the look of the Christian Louboutins for less, is it?
Unless you don’t like wearing blatant knockoffs, then you can go for these other colors of the Evangels instead:
