What's in the box: There is no fixed box: each month you choose shoes or handbags from a personalized selection based on your style quiz.
ShoeDazzle is one of the older names in online shoe memberships. Its rival JustFab bought it in August 2013, and it still runs under TechStyle Fashion Group. It is a VIP membership, not a classic surprise box. You take a style quiz, and each month the site shows you a curated selection of shoes, boots, sandals, sneakers and handbags based on your answers. You pick what you want instead of getting a mystery shipment, which takes away much of the risk of disliking what arrives. The catch is the billing. Like other TechStyle brands, the membership usually charges you each month unless you skip by the deadline, and that charge turns into store credit instead of a refund. If you forget to skip, you can end up with credit you never planned to spend. Read the membership and cancellation terms carefully before you sign up. The styles lean trendy and budget friendly rather than premium, so the shoes suit people who like to refresh their closet often. They may disappoint anyone who wants durable footwear that lasts for years. If you remember to skip each month and enjoy browsing a rotating selection, ShoeDazzle can be a fun way to shop. If you'd rather make simple one time purchases, a regular retailer is less hassle.
