Topshop is selling £30 rope sandals that look just like Isabel Marant’s £402 designer pair – can you tell the difference?

WITH the UK continuing to bask in in a heatwave our boots and uggs have been banished to back of the closet.

And there’s nothing like an extended summer as an excuse to splash out and buy some new sandals.

With so many styles to choose from, there’s a shoe for every taste – and budget.

These pairs of strappy sandals channel a nautical theme with their rope design.

While you may not be sailing the high seas they’ll look just as good on a beach or a pool.

But with one pair costing £30 and the other £402, you could probably treat yourself to that sea-and-sun drenched break depending on what pair you go for.

• Isabel Marant Black Lou Sandal, Moda Operandi, £402 –

This pair features thick rope detailing across the top, ankle and around the sole.

Fastened with poppers, the pair are finished with a leather sole.

The site recommends styling with a printed dress and a pair of sunglasses.

• Fiesta Rope Flat Sandals, Topshop, £30 –

If you don’t have a few hundred quid spare, you can always treat yourself to this near identical pair from Topshop.

With the same rope detailing across the top and around the edge, it even features the material on the sole.

These are slip-ons instead of poppers, and the site recommends pairing these with high-rise jeans or a slip dress.
