Are You Naughty or Nice? Meet the Sweet and Spicy Shades of ‘Belaira’ from JustFab

I spotted this seemingly sweet pump in my JustFab boutique this morning and I knew that some of our fellow show lovers would definitely appreciate them. The first color option of this pump that I saw was the pink, which is incredibly adorable. Then I discovered that it was offered in a fun and feisty black, red and leopard option; one feels a little naughty, while the other is very sweet. I’d love to pair the leopard print option with ...Read more

Do You Love Leopard? Get This Hot Leopard Print Heel for Only $39.95!

I recently received the ‘Katrena’ in leopard from JustFab and I had to share my experience with you guys.

It all started with this Vince Camuto ‘Babe’ t-strap sandal which as you can see, draws inspiration heavily from the Casadei sandals we spotted on Rachel Zoe in the summer of last year:

Vince Camuto ‘Babe’ t-strap ...Read more
