OBSESSION: Ugg Boots

With winter just around the corner I thought I would do a post on one of my favorite cold weather staples: UGG BOOTS!  I know.  There are many of you out there that groan at these fabulously ugly boots but please let me make a believer out of you.  I have two different pairs of Uggs and I will be adding a THIRD pair this season.  Here are some of my favorite styles AND what you should and SHOULD NOT wear with them:

Bailey Button Triplet Boot:

This boot is fantastic because you can wear it tall OR you can roll it down.  I personally love to roll it down so the shearling on the inside becomes a cuff (totally Cameron Diaz in Charlie's Angels 2 - This is hostel, ya?) 


Classic Tall:

This boot is a classic (obvi - check the name) for a reason.  It comes in a million colors and the more you wear it the more it forms to your foot.  Plus when it gets super nasty out, your feet and legs will always be protected and toasty!


Bailey Over The Knee Boot:

I LOVE this boot.  You can wear it any number of ways and it elevates the humble Ugg to a sexy new level.  You can roll it down to get the Classic look or keep it high.  I also love the shiny treatment. I wouldn't recommend this boot in any other color but black because of the style.



Short Sparkle Boot:

I own these in black and I am OBSESSED.  They have the ability to transform a comfy "running out for Starbucks" look into a pulled together, edgy look.  Plus they are divine when the weather is chilly and come off easily for the airport security line.


Dakota Slipper:

These are THE BEST and I will be purchasing them for this season.  They come in a BUNCH of different colors AND they are ideal for indoor/outdoor wear.  I would rock these backstage or walking to brunch on a chilly Sunday morning.


APPROPRIATE BOTTOMS:

Here are some chic bottoms that will compliment your UGGS and NOT make you look like a slutty college student:

YES:
Rachel Pally Super Long Printed Leggings:

A print always looks great with an UGG.  These are extra long (my favorite) and the black and white print is the perfect base for a wildly - colored boot.

NO:

UGGS and mini skirts.  Do.  Not.

YES:
Paige Denim Ultra Skinny Colored Jeans:

These would look adorable with a Classic Tall OR the Dakota.

NO:

Just.  Don't.

YES:
Juicy Couture Coated Skinny Cord:

I love the texture of a cord - these would look super chic with over the knee Baileys

NO:

Absolutely not.

YES:
Hue Liquid Leggings:

Because liquid leggings are so flashy I would pair these with the Sparkle Boot and an understated, comfy, drape-y sweater top.  Or an off the shoulder T under a chic jacket.  Love!

NO:

Seriously.  Stop.

YES:
Current/Elliott Ombre Skinny Jeans:

I am in love with ombre anything and these fit perfectly into any of the Uggs featured.  I would wear them with the Bailey Button Triplet and roll them down.  So.  Darn.  Cute.

NO:

Hot.  Mess.

XOXO
