Unless you’ve been hiding under a rock for the past year, when I say Realisation Par you’ll know what I’m talking about. The ‘IT’ girl label from Australia created by former (??) fashion blogger Alexandra Spencer and Teale Talbot continues to dominate my Instagram feed. I love how they’re a little tongue in cheek, with dress descriptions claiming to be your get out of jail free card, “If you’re bad at being good, you better be damn good at getting out of it. Trust us. You’re welcome.” If you really have been living under a rock, I suggest checking their clothes out – I’m such a fan, they’re great quality and I even gifted myself the Goldie dress for Christmas.
While I do love a good investment piece made from silk, all of their pieces range from $140USD and upwards, which when you’re saving those last pennies it can be a lot. It’s because of this (hello, segue) that I wanted to start a new segment on le blog called ‘Look For Less’ for quality dupes. If you can’t afford it, you shouldn’t feel like you can’t get in on the action, so here’s how you can get a similar look on a budget.
So far in this series I’ve done Realisation Par, Are You Am I and Reformation and Zimmermann – you can find all these posts here.

THE KATE DRESS – $195USD
Cheaper Alternatives:

THE emilie DRESS – $160USD

Well I hope you liked these alternatives and hopefully this segment. Fashion trends quite often pass through from individual pieces like the ones from Realisation Par, filter there way through the high street labels and end up in cheaper alternatives. So if you’re on a budget, don’t worry! There’s always something out there for you. Speaking of, here are some more pieces below that I think are similar to other Realisation Par styles which might peak your interest.
