Shoe Lovers’ Best-Kept Secret Isn’t a Secret Anymore
If you asked us how we first found out about JustFab and ShoeDazzle, we’re not sure we could tell you. What we do know is that over the last few months, we haven’t be able to open Instagram without spotting a pair of their effortlessly chic shoes on our favorite cool-girl influencers.
Don’t get it twisted though. These aren’t just IG brands that only look good in pictures. A quick browse through their tagged photos reveals busy moms, cozy college kids, and thousands of women exploring their personal style without breaking the bank (or their ankles).
With winter and holiday party season coming up, we figured it was the perfect time to try out both JustFab and ShoeDazzle to see how their boots and party shoes stack up. Spoiler alert: we were blown away by the massive savings we scored on the hottest and most comfortable shoes on the market.
A Dream Destination for Shoe Lovers
JustFab and ShoeDazzle are a shoe lover’s paradise. They have hundreds of styles to choose from at affordable prices, and while you can purchase their shoes a la carte, the real savings come when you join the VIP membership. Here’s how they work:
- You select the styles you love and become an official VIP member. This unlocks tons of member perks and a fabulous (but limited time) intro offer where you get 75% off your first pair, plus 40% off all additional items in your first order.
- Each month, you can either shop or skip. If you don’t skip by the 5th of the month, you’re charged a $49.95 “Member Credit” that goes into your account and can be used on any future purchases. There are new styles added every week, so there’s always something new and exciting to look at.
- Change or cancel your membership at any time. While you can conveniently skip any month, both JustFab and ShoeDazzle also offer 24/7 member support, and cancellation is quick and easy.
Of course, you don’t have to be a member to purchase on both sites. But, there are so many perks and discounts (and there’s so much flexibility) that you literally lose out when you don’t have a VIP membership.
ShoeDazzle vs. JustFab: What’s the Difference?
The VIP memberships are identical—the main difference is the actual shoe styles.
Think of ShoeDazzle as the friend who’s the life of the party. They’re the queen of confidence, always dressed to impress, and help you put your own spin on the hottest trends. They believe style should always be highly personal and fun…and nothing is off limits.
From glitzy heels to thigh-high boots, ShoeDazzle’s fabulous styles lean more bold than JustFab’s. If you’re someone who likes to be the main character, you’ll definitely love ShoeDazzle.
On the other hand, JustFab is your effortlessly stylish, relatable best friend. They always have your back and want you to feel comfortable in your own skin. Their main focus is to help you find shoes, clothing, and accessories that help you feel happy, confident, and ready to take on the world.
From unique sneakers and wear-every-day boots, JustFab’s chic styles were made for anyone who loves to look cute and on-trend, and prioritizes function as much as they do style.
We tried both out, and simply couldn’t choose a “winner.” Here’s why we’re recommending both VIP memberships to all of the shoe lovers in our lives:
1. Endless Styles to Choose From
No matter what your personal style is or what type of shoe you’re shopping for, both JustFab and ShoeDazzle have a style (or 10) you’ll love. Red velvet stilettos to complete your holiday party look? Check. Chunky stylish loafers you can wear to work? They’ve got em!
Plus, there are new drops weekly, so there’s always something new to add to your wishlist.
2. Designer Quality Without the Price Tag
We’ll admit, we were skeptical about the quality of ShoeDazzle and JustFab’s shoes before ordering them. With the VIP membership, most styles are under $50—so we weren’t sure what to expect. But when our orders arrived, we were floored by A. how high-quality the materials feel, B. how expensive they look, and C. how comfortable they are (seriously, even the heels).
Whether you want to live out your influencer dreams or just have fun exploring your personal style, quality shoes at great prices are something that everyone can get behind.
3. The VIP Member Perks Are So Fire
ShoeDazzle and JustFab both know how to treat their VIP members right. When you sign up for the membership, you unlock special member pricing which is up to 25% off retail prices for non-members, plus free shipping on orders over $49.
You’ll also get exclusive first looks at the new styles that drop every week, and curated recommendations each month. The more styles you buy, the better the recommendations get.
4. Flexible Membership With 24/7 Support
If you decide you need to put your shoe habit on hold until you get a house with a bigger closet, you can easily cancel it by chatting with their member support team. Or, you could just skip a month if you don’t want any new shoes for a few weeks (though we’re not sure what that feels like).
Members also enjoy free returns and exchanges! We found both ShoeDazzle and JustFab’s teams to be prompt and helpful.
5. They Have Bomb Clothing and Accessories Too
Fellow shoe lovers will agree that the shoes are the focal point of an outfit…but who doesn’t love cute clothes, too? With this in mind, JustFab and ShoeDazzle created a range of clothes and accessories designed to accent their shoes.
From dresses to yoga pants, purses to berets—both brands are your one-stop-shop to a killer (and insanely Instagrammable) outfit.
Find Your Perfect Pair(s)
If effortlessly cute shoes that will elevate any outfit are your jam, JustFab has your name all over it. If you’re looking for bold, adventurous styles that make the outfit, you’re going to love ShoeDazzle.
We started both memberships with the intention of cancelling one, but honestly, the membership options are so flexible and the VIP perks are so great, we figured it would be silly not to keep both for different occasions. This month, we stocked up on JustFab’s cozy cold-weather styles and boots, but next month, we’ll definitely be ordering some of ShoeDazzle’s glitzy heels for holiday party season.
Head to ShoeDazzle and JustFab’s websites to see which styles sing to you—and don’t miss your chance to get 75% off the first style + 40% off all additional items in your first order when you become a VIP. Happy shopping!
