JustFab? Somebody stop me!

Oh Em Gee!  Through a MyGlam email, I discovered JustFab, a shoe and accessory subscription site founded by Kimora Lee Simmons, similar to ShoeDazzle by Kim Kardashian.  My choice of a breathtaking pair of shoes for just $39.99 a month?  I pay about double or more for pretty shoes...I was sold!  But wait, it gets better...they're having a BOGO sale.  Unbelievably gorgeous shoes for under $20 a pair?  Please...somebody stop me! (seriously though, it was about to get out of control)  I ended up choosing 6 pairs, whittled it down to 4, then decided to take 3 and let my sister choose the 4th for herself.  These are the ones I went with:



Obviously, I have a yen for pale, creamy, nude-tone shoes at the moment with very, very high heels and open toes.  The first one is called Rose, a patent nude platform pump with a uniquely sculpted, rose-like accent.


They're actually quite comfortable for such a high heel!  Unfortunately, they seem to run a half-size too large, but I love them so much that I'm willing to wear an insert so that they fit a little better. ( I wear a size 6, btw, and the 5.5 were long sold out by the time I found out about the sale.)

Next is Oksana:


What a perfectly girlie shoe!  The suede-like material is the prettiest shade of pink and the white,  lace-like trim and bow accents exude such fresh femininity!  Alas...I don't think I'll be keeping these.  As lovely as they are, the arch is much too extreme for me and the back of the left shoe cuts sharply into my ankle if I take so much as 3 steps.  Such a shame, but even I wouldn't put up with that kind of torture for the sake of beauty!  Like Rose, they also seem to run a touch bigger than the indicated size.

Finally, we have Winona:


Eeeeeeeeeeeeeee!  I think these are my favorite!  They're a platform wedge made from a buttery, nude, suede-like fabric.  I absolutely adore the ruffled strap that can either be worn mary jane style or pushed back as an accent! (which is my look of choice)  My favorite feature, in addition to stunning good looks, is that Winona is incredibly comfortable...I feel like I could walk miles in these!  The fit is also spot-on, as if they were made just for my feet!

All in all, I'd say that I'm fairly pleased with the quality of the products.  Each pair was packaged very carefully in sleek black boxes and were brand, spanking new.  I didn't notice any obvious defects in any of the shoes I received.  I really feel like I got more than I paid for!  Another thing I really like about JustFab is the variety and selection of shoes and accessories that are available, as well as how easy the site is to navigate.  Also, free shipping and returns?  Doesn't really get better than that!  If there was one thing they could improve, I'd suggest that they include a size 5 in their shoe selections.  One of my sisters has tiny feet and has a difficult time finding pretty shoes her size.  If that was an option, she would probably shop non-stop! (which may not be a good thing, lol)

If you're curious as to which shoe my other sister picked, she went with an elegant Valentino look-alike called Jennifer:



Hope some of you enjoyed reading my review!  I'm curious to know if any of you have tried JustFab and, if so, how was your experience?  Happy Saturday and have a good night!

Hugs,
Cat

    1. I love them! She says that they're pretty comfy too, nicely padded footbed, though a bit of a high arch.

    1. Whhhaaaaaa?! The slip that came with my order had instructions for returns... Maybe I missed something in the super-fine print. I'll give them a call today and see what they can do. Otherwise, there's always eBay! lol
