What's in the box: There is no preset box: each month you choose your own shoes, boots, clothing or accessories, or you skip.
JustFab is less a curated box than a membership shopping club. You browse the site, pick what you want, and members pay lower prices than guests. The catalog goes well beyond shoes. Boots, sneakers, loafers and heels sit next to clothing, bags, accessories and even bras, with items from JustFab plus brands like ShoeDazzle and Dream Pairs. New members are offered up to 75% off their first order, and most items show a member price about 25% below the guest price.
The catch is the monthly billing. Unless you skip by the 5th of each month, you are charged $49.95, which goes toward membership benefits that include a VIP Credit you can spend in the store. That setup works for people who shop regularly and remember to log in, and it can frustrate anyone who forgets. You can also shop as a guest without joining, but you pay the higher price.
The style is trendy and seasonal. Right now fall boots, sueded jackets and knitwear are front and center. Quality and fit vary by item, so check the product pages before you commit. If you want someone to pick shoes for you, look elsewhere. If you like choosing your own pairs at member prices and can keep up with the skip deadline, it can be good value.
