They say that imitation is the sincerest form of flattery, but it’s hard to copy an original. Sure, you can try, but there’s only one Beyoncé. The good news is, there’s only one you, too. So, why be someone else when you can just be yourself? Oprah’s cool and all, but you’ve got a certain je nais se quoi that’s hard to duplicate. You’re an icon, and that means you’re the blueprint—everybody else is just playing dress up.

Be that as it may, the thing about icons is that no matter what, there’s always someone hoping to profit off the fruits of your labor. It’s hard not to. Success is intoxicating, and when others see that what you’re doing works, they’ll find any way to emulate your accomplishments in nearly identical fashion. Nevertheless, you’re still an original, even if there are a bunch of copies walking around. That being said, sometimes a dupe can be just as good—especially when it costs a fraction of the price of the OG. And nothing has more copycats than Anthropologie’s Icon Juice Glasses.

As if we needed one more, Hobby Lobby just added its version to the long list of dupes, and if you look fast enough, you might mistake it for the more expensive one. The maker’s wonderland added a Strawberry Glass Cup to stores, and it’s the perfect porch swing sipper for all the sweet tea and lemonade to come. These stout 13-ounce glasses feature cutesy strawberries dimpled around the exterior with a slightly thickened base to ensure stability.

The glasses are dishwasher safe, making cleanup after use a breeze, and at just $7.99, replacing one if they do break won’t sting as much. In comparison, Anthropologie’s Icon Juice Glasses clock in at a healthy 17-ounces and forgo the thickened base in lieu of a cleaner, more consistent look. Additionally, the OG juice glasses will set you back a whopping $16, which is about twice the price of the ones from Hobby Lobby.

That’s what we call a dupe done right. Now, if only we could find a replica of that beach house we fell in love with. Do you all take IOUs?
