When we think of statement footwear, Steve Madden is one of the first names to pop up. Started as a luxury footwear brand that took the shoe industry by a storm, Steve Madden is a go-to for all things trendy and chic. It has also ventured into handbags and fashion accessories and has become a lifestyle force worldwide. Although we love the brand's collection, their higher priced products (which, let's face it is most of their collection), we cannot get our hands on. Not even with our Diwali bonus. So, read on for a list of budget-friendly alternatives that you might like just as much.
