If Hailey Bieber's obsession with the same Joe's Jeans tank has taught us anything, it's that she isn't afraid to outfit repeat—or at least, style repeat (a fact I find personally impressive, considering her net worth is reportedly in the $300 million range after that Rhode sale). She's a nepo baby-model-business mogul who married the male pop star of our generation...she has the wallet to wear a 'fit once and toss it straight into the garbage if she so chooses. And yet! She doesn't!

It isn't just her hyperfixation with the tank. Hailey has fully embraced the flip-flop revival this summer with Totême's elevated take on the trend: a kitten heel thong-style sandal that's quickly become one of her most worn pieces. She's been spotted in the shoe on at least five occasions throughout spring and summer alone (for Sushi Park dates, New York City outings, L.A. errands, the list goes on).

While, obvi, I was immediately influenced by Hails' new go-to shoe, the price tag does make more sense for her budget than mine. And even if I wanted to splurge, both the classic black leather and croc versions have limited sizing anyway. The good news? I found tonssss of lookalike styles that pass the vibe check (and my budget requirements).

When I said I was "immediately influenced," I meant it. I ran to Amazon for a pair of lookalike flip-flop heels earlier this summer and landed on the $34 pair that's quickly become a staple in my own wardrobe. They just instantly upgrade a 'fit and I don't even have to sacrifice comfort.

This Anthro sandal looks sooo similar to Hailey's Totême version, but bonus points (!!), comes in tons of additional colors and patterns. Cheetah! Zebra! Metallic silver! You're covered whether you're looking for a staple shoe or personality pair.

You're different! You're cool! You don't want to be like everyone else! I get it. These knotted Schutz heels are my answer to that.

I loveeee a suede sandal moment for September. They feel a lil more seasonable than a classic leather sandal while letting you keep the delusion alive that it's still summer <3

The pointed toe on this Femme LA pair gives the trend such a luxe update and I'm sooo here for it.

I hate to play favorites, but it feels impossible not to when these thong heels have the cutest charm accessory. Only problem? IDK whether to snag 'em in black, brown, red, or all three.

Jelly sandals 🤝 kitten heels. This Steve Madden style is low-key like a political marriage—two opposites with a shared platform (to look hot).

The final boss of Amazon fashion (Paige DeSorbo) is obsessed with these $44 sandals that she says look "insanely expensive" and have the perf heel height.

“Anything lower than this I feel like is too low and any higher than this it’s no longer a kitten heel," she explains. "I just like how it looks kind of geometric with the shape. It’s also a very big trend with the thong."

This on-sale style (they're just $32 RN) come in classic black, white, burgundy, leopard print, you name it.

The squared-off toe, chunky heel, and extra strap will not only give ya a more secure 'fit, but a slightly different look—ya know, just in case you want to diversify your collection.

Abercrombie just continues to prove it's that girl. These snakeskin kitten heels don't just elevate a 'fit, they make it.

This red-hot strappy sandal is the perf hybrid between a classic kitten heel and flip-flop stiletto. Maybe the pop of color will even inspire Hailey...
