Ugg: not just for furry boots, for handbags too!
It’s the season of the Ugg, folks. Now, the boots we can just about understand. No, they’re not pretty, but there’s no denying that they are cosy, and sometimes when you live in a cold climate that’s all you really care about.
We have no idea why you’d need a sheepskin bag, though. Not unless you were in the habit of carrying baby animals around in it, or some other item that needed to be kept warm at all times.
Of course, if you DO frequently find yourself carrying such cargo in frosty climes, this is £130 from My-Wardrobe.
I actually find the bag cuter than the boots…but I have always hated uggs with a passion…really people…there are cosy AND attractive boots out there I swear
Ha! This is some misguided result of the old rule “the bag must match the shoes…” Eek.
They have gloves, too…the warmest, most hideous gloves ever.

UGGS products’ resemblance to still-living sheep bothers me. With leather I’m not constantly reminded that it was once the skin of a cow with big brown eyes and fluttery eyelashes…but I can’t help bu think of lambs when I see or touch UGGS.

I like the idea but I wish they didn’t looks so much like actual boots! (really…It looks like a zoom-in image of a pair of Ugg boots lol)
i got a pair of uggs yesterday, real ones. i know they sound gross because its real sheepskin+wool and stuff but they are so comfy. ive got thewm on this minute and they are heaven to my feet
Ugg-ly. Need I say more?
It is unique! I agree, it really does look just like the top of a boot. I have to admit though, I feel warmer just looking at it
