JUST FAB REVIEW | IS IT WORTH IT? ARE THE SHOES COMFORTABLE?

January 10, 2018 & Leave a Comment

Hi there! Happy Wednesday!

I love shoes, and I like to have high quality, investment pairs of winter boots, athletic shoes, a classic heel, and of course my favorite UGG Slippers (priorities, people!). However, I love trying out shoes for different events, or explore a new trend, without clutching my pearls. My favorite places to get inexpensive boots is Target or JustFab, and my favorite place to get inexpensive heels is JustFab, so today I want to share my thoughts on the company JustFab.

What Is JustFab?

JustFab is a website that is a part of the ShoeDazzle, Fabletics, and FabKids family, where you join and take a style quiz, have access to exclusive discounts, and receive free shipping and exchanges.

How Does It Work?

Once becoming a VIP member you can opt each month to “skip” the month or pick out a pair of shoes! If you do not “skip” the month by the 5th of every month, you will be charged $39 which can be used as a credit for a new pair of shoes.

My Experience

I joined because I kept seeing ads and thinking the shoes were so adorable for the price! I have been a member for years now, and I overall really enjoy JustFab. In order to not get charged I spend about 10 minutes every six months to put into the calendar on my phone “Skip JustFab” on the first of the month. I have had a few “whoops” months where I don’t skip, but I have just saved the credit for occasions such as birthdays where I want a new pair of shoes.

Why I love It?

I have had so many cute pairs of shoes, and people often compliment my shoes or ask where they are from. I love that I can get cute shoes (see some of my past posts showcasing them here , here, and here) for an affordable price. I have had at least 10 pairs of shoes from JustFab over the past several years, and while some aren’t incredibly comfortable, I have also purchased boots that I wear on a nearly daily basis during the fall and winter months with zero pain. I also find the review on the JustFab site to be very helpful. My latest pair of shoes from just fab, a faux suede black bootie with gorgeous detail embroidery, is shown above.

What I DON’T Love

I haven’t canceled, but I have heard it can be a bit of a hassle, because obviously they don’t want you to cancel. If you have had that experience, definitely let myself and anyone else reading know about it in the comments.

FALL FASHION POST! HOW TO LOOK GOOD, BE COMFORTABLE, AND NOT BREAK THE BANK!

September 14, 2016 & Leave a Comment

Hi there! Happy Wednesday!

We are starting to slowly but surely starting to get chillier days here in the midwest, and that means that I’ve started wearing some of my favorite fall pieces again. I love clothes and I love fashion, but I’m also very realistic about my fashion choices because I am a mom of little kids and whatever I wear on a daily basis needs to withstand a lot! I need a wardrobe that is fashionable, affordable, and comfortable *without* looking frumpy! Whether you’re a mom like me who needs clothes that can go from the store to the park and maybe, just maybe, out to eat, or you’re just settling into your career and you haven’t quite made it to your dream clothing budget I want to share my favorite places to buy clothes!

HOW I SHOP:

I like to have a mix of high quality never-go-out-of-style pieces and trendy pieces. My style is classic and I love girly details. I like to throw in more trendy and edgy pieces that I’m drawn to, but I don’t wear every trend that comes down the runway. I often mix and match high end things, and very budget friendly things. I think that if you truly only buy pieces that you LOVE, you can make a $20 pair of boots look like a $200 pair and you can feel like a million dollars without going into debt. I try to buy things that are easy to wash at home and that I am comfortable wearing, but I definitely like dressier things for the rare occasions that I do get to go all-out. And, I would always rather be slightly “overdressed” than underdressed.

WHERE I SHOP:

Basics:

Classic:

Trendy:

Dottie Couture Boutique

Boots:

NEED A LITTLE INSPIRATION?:

I post outfits on my Instagram account and if you tap the picture once I always link all of the outfit details! If you tap the picture twice you “love” the picture and that makes me happy, too ; )

I hope that you enjoyed this post! If you would like to see a fall look book or outfit inspiration post or where I find my jewelry and accessories, please let me know and I will definitely do it. And let me know you’re favorite websites or stores to shop for clothes in the comments! I would love to get more ideas : ) If you liked this post please don’t forget to share it and subscribe!!

My Rookie Shopping Mistake Confession AND Vote For Your Favorite Boots!

July 29, 2015 & Leave a Comment

Hi there! Happy Wednesday!

There are LOTS of subscription based products out there where you can’t purchase just once but are instead forced to sign up for your card to be automatically charged X amount once/month *unless* you cancel by X date. I remember having to convince my parents to let me try ProActiv because back in the day (read: early 2000’s) it was purchased in this way. If you are under 20 years old and really want your mind blown I’m pretty sure my mom had to call a 800 number because it wasn’t avaliable to order online then…but that’s a story for another day. ANYWAYS, usually I cringe at these type of services because I do not want to be locked into something. However, last fall I really wanted a pair of boots from JustFab and so I signed up for a service like this. But, because of my Type A personality, I was able to remember to cancel every month until 4th of July weekend when it slipped my mind and BAM I got a “credit” on my online profile because my card was charged. Such a rookie mistake : ( So, today I would like you to help me pick out what shoes to order by voting!!

*Note: I actually LOVE every pair of shoes (so far 3) that I have ordered from JustFab and I do think that they’re an awesome website for ordering shoes at a very affordable price. The boots I have from them are very comfortable and I’ve recieved lots of compliments on them. But, if you aren’t good at remembering things like this and you don’t think you want a new pair of shoes for $40 every month, it may not be for you.

Thank you for the help friends ; ) I hope that you have a wondeful weekend! We are going to be starting to DAILY VLOG! So stay tuned for the launch of our new family vlog (video diary) channel!
