Of all the fashion questions we’re asked, there’s one that comes up time and time again: Are Ugg boots still fashionable? Well, are they? Let’s take a look at the evidence…
First of all, let’s make one thing clear: it doesn’t actually matter whether or not Uggs are fashionable. If you like ‘em, wear ‘em. Don’t listen to what The Fashion Police has to say on the subject – I mean, no one else does. A better question, then, would be "Are Uggs nice?" So, what do The Fashion Police have to say about that?
Because it’s Christmas, and it’s red, and it’s nice and simple but still gorgeous… and because I’ve been having me a bit of a Miu Miu moment recently. Bow down to them – they can do no wrong.
How many times have you gotten all dressed up for a party, only to go and spoil it all by throwing on some bulky great overcoat over the top? Never? Well then, you’re a better person – or at least, a better dressed person – than me. I’m guilty of committing this particular crime of fashion all the time, which is why I’m drawn to these lovely posh occasion coats at Warehouse. The only problem is which one to choose? The white is sparkier and more versatile, but green is my very favourite colour… They’re £70 each.
Are you tired of seeing Britney’s crotch yet? Well that’s too bad, because Britney’s not tired of showing it off yet. GOD. This picture makes me sad. I mean, that’s a pretty dress, great shoes – even her hair looks good. And then she has to go and spoil it all by flashing her knickers – or lack of knickers, as the case may be. Why, Britney, for the love of God, WHY?
I know, I know – it’s cheap and very, very cheerful, but sometimes (well, all the time, actually) you need a bit of that in your life, and, thankfully, the good folks over at Fredflare are always there to give it to us. This bag is a mere $20, and, as an added bonus, will remind you of those striped candy cane things you get at Christmas. Result!
People, I’d like you to meet…me. Yes, it’s me. OK, I know it doesn’t look like me (although it’s a pretty good likeness for Julianne Moore, dontchya think?) but this is my virtual self, all the way from H&M’s virtual dressing room. Freaky, isn’t it?
Why do I love my virtual self so much? Well, it’s hard to say, really. Maybe it’s the strangely glazed eyes, the perfect, perfect skin, the fact that she can clearly wear a white top without dribbling coffee and food down it, the way the real me does (EVERY DAY, folks, every day…). Or maybe I’m just easily amused?
Where I come from, hoodies are what surly teenagers wear when they want to break into shops/terrorize the old folks. Where Anthropologie come from, they’re what iPods wear when they want to … be warm. And also: stylish! These, you see, are cashmere hoodies. For your iPod. I guess they’d probably fit some cellphones, too – no one will ever know. They’re $36 at Anthropologie – go on, make some poor iPod happy this Christmas…
I’d normally hesitate to recommend horizontal stripes to anyone other than Nicole Ritchie because they’re notoriously fattening, but if you do want to try and copy this look, the striped sweater is $58 at Banana Republic, the skinny jeans are by Blue Cult and are $117at Bluefly, and the Steve Madden peep toes (which, OK, aren’t as nice as Nicole’s Louboutins) are $149.95. Oh, and don’t forget the trademark huge sunglasses – Nicole never does. These are by Dior and are $210.
