I Used to Be Anti-Uggs, But These Fashion People Are Making Them Look Chic
If the mere mention of Ugg boots conjures images of early-aughts style—velour tracksuits, miniskirts, layered polo shirts, etc.—then you're not alone. But those memories of the iconic shearling boots are due for an update, as fashion people around the world are styling the undeniably cozy footwear in decidedly chic ways.
During a recent trip down the Instagram rabbit hole, we were intrigued by how Uggs were being worn with modern wardrobe basics, giving otherwise ordinary outfits an element of nostalgia and a high dose of comfortable chic. Whether you choose to pair classic Ugg boots with jeans and an overcoat or embrace the brand's platform slippers with wide-leg pants and a knit top, it's clear there's a shearling style that will suit almost any outfit.
Keep scrolling for some Instagram-worthy outfit inspiration, plus an array of Ugg boots that are ideal to wear this winter and beyond. We're even warming up to a few of the brand's newer designs too.
