Boots with the Fur...and a Skirt?



I'm not going to lie. I am quite of fan of Ugg boots. I have several pair and I wear them all of the time...with jeans and sweats and PJs. Now a common faux pas that one may witness all across the nation is a pair of those oh-so-comfy Uggs paired with...wait for it, wait for it...a miniskirt! It's like witnessing a walking oxymoron. The Ugg boots are lined with a very warm sheepskin, keeping your feet nice and toasty, leaving your bare legs completely exposed to the coldness underneath a freakin' miniskirt (minus double points if this skirt happens to be denim). I will just never understand the combination of this article of clothing with this particular shoe. Oh, and FYI, ladies of Southern California, if you dare venture out in the city with your pink Uggs and a mini-skirt with those "fabulous" rind stoned lined pockets, you are most definitely noticed and labeled, and not in a good way.

  1. "Minus double points if this skirt happens to be denim." Take that Southern California! This has been my favorite post so far. You're 100% right and your quips are very witty.

  2. I always thought the whole point of these were that they were comfortable?

    I am pro-comfort, but I don't see how something that is basically a glorified pair of moccasins could ever be considered a "fashionable" item.

  3. I agree completely. This is the equivalent of a man wearing shorts, sandals, and sweatshirt at the same time. Better yet, I saw a guy walk into my store with flip-flops, plaid shorts, and a black leather jacket. Dang...

  5. I agree that it all looks funny, but I was talking to a friend of mine who is a victim of wearing sandals, shorts, and a long sleeve sweatshirt with a beanie, and he put something into perspective for me. He said that his legs and feet don't get cold, but his upper body does. This makes sense to me, but I also understand your argument.
