Every so often, I fall in love with a pair of shoes and don’t stop thinking about them for months. The item I’m currently smitten over? Nodaleto’s Mary Jane Bulla Babies.
These cutesy shoes aren’t exactly new, but boy, are they beautiful. Fashion girls like Lucy Williams, Susie Bubble and Megan Ellaby have all been pictured wearing the Bulla Babies, while Bella Hadid and Dua Lipa are also fans of the footwear label.

TLDR: I need a pair. But at nearly £600, what’s a girl on a budget to do? I have two options: either start saving, or find some high street lookalikes.
If you’re eyeing them up too, you’ll be glad to know that they’re currently included in the Farfetch sale for £560 – and there’s an extra 20% off added at checkout, dropping them down to roughly £410.

If that still feels like too much to part with, fear not. I’ve found some of the best looking Mary-Janes on the high street now to help you get the look on a budget.
As we know, Nodaleto’s come in a rainbow of colours, including nude, red, pink, silver, white…the list is seemingly endless. I’m a big fan of the white, and SimplyBe have a similar pair perfect for wide feet.
Monki and Charles & Keith both offer brown and tan pairs, while Office’s pink Mary-Janes are my personal fave.
