Mou goatskin boots: Ugg’s hairier cousins
Sometimes we think Ugg have an awful lot to answer for. When they became popular, it was like the floodgates were opened for new varieties of ugly boots to come surging in. “If they’ll buy one brand of bug-ugly boots, they’ll surely buy another!” the shoe manufacturers seemed to say, and the shoe manufacturers were right. Years down the line, not only do we still have Uggs in our lives, we also now have Mou boots, made from goatskin. Just in case there was any doubt about that, look, they left the tails on!
(Note: probably not ACTUAL tails. But still.)
These are certainly plenty ugly, and we’re just not convinced that the chunky sole will do anything AT ALL to prevent that cream fur turning the colour of mud once you’ve been out in them for more than a couple of minutes, but just to make matters worse, Net-a-Porter suggest these are “weekend staples” which should be worn with “trackpants”. We can only hope they just forgot to type the words “IN THE FASHION POLICE JAIL, SUCKERS!” at the end of that sentence.
What do you think, readers? Could you be seduced by these? If so, they’re £255 at Net-a-Porter.

Spotted! Sharon Stone dresses as a sexy gangster for 8th Annual Elton John AIDS Foundation gala
Sharon Stone
We’re really glad you’re able to laugh at this, Sharon Stone. We’d be mortified if we misread the invitation as “gangster fancy dress” and turned up in a bizarre “half-dress”, but it’s good that you can see the funny side. It’s less good that you couldn’t decide whether to wear a long dress or a short one, of course, but you certainly seem to have found yourself a compromise with this. Er, good for you!
On the other hand, it’s been a long time since The Fashion Police had an authentic looking “baddy” to fight – maybe Sharon here is simply stepping up to the plate?

Spotted! Chloe Sevigny in Miu Miu’s “bra” dress
Chloe Sevigny
We have no idea what either Chloe Sevigny or Miu Miu thought they were doing with this dress. Seriously: when your dress is actually designed to look like a wardrobe malfunction, that’s never going to end well. In this case the mid-calf skirt and sensible grey cardi make Chloe look like a forgetful grandmother who forgot to button up her blouse before leaving the house.
On the plus side, though: great shoes!
