Ugg Boots and Ugg Slippers
I was sitting in front of the Junior High School the other day, waiting for my daughter, when I noticed the most peculiar thing! Now I know it is Jr. High and peculiar is norm there, but what I noticed was their choice of footwear - Ugg Slippers. That was boys and girls, mind you.
These are your basic sheepskin slip-ons kind of slippers for the girls. And the boys like what we used to call (man does this date me) moccasin slippers. Of course, the only name in sheepskin is Uggs.
You might recognize the name - they are the makers of those Australian sheepskin boots that have been off-the-chart popular for a few years - they're back again this year. Ugh boots worn with leggings or skinny jeans tucked in and a big bulky sweater are the hit!
But in all fairness, these are cool, fashionable and even comfy shoes. You must treat yourself at the end of a long day (or at the beginning!) with these. A popular style is Scuffette UGG Slippers. They're made of soft, cozy sheepskin that keeps your feet warm during winter months and offers moisture-wicking comfort in the summer.
I like the way the cuffs have exposed sheepskin and the soles are made out of suede so they are durable. This is in both the boys and girls slippers. For authenticity, they sport the UGG logo on them, too.
Check on the status of your Ugg boots at the same time. May as well get these marked of your 'need to have' list too. Especially since the cold and snow are knocking on the door. I have seen these worn with shorts and skirts in the summer and man are they sexy!
Now I must go on record saying I never give into the teens age old adage "Mom I won't fit in if I don't have them". So in order to maintain my respectability as a parent, I will concede because they are sensible shoe wear. (And boy are they cute!)
