{ Fashion Crime - Uggs }

I’m all for comfort – I think that in order to feel stylish, you have to feel comfortable while doing it! 

However, there is a “trend” with women that needs to stop – Ugg boots and sweat/yoga/pj pants.

              

I’m not really sure how this look surfaced, but it’s awful. It makes everyone’s legs look stumpy and wide. It’s almost like someone out there was trying to go for a “sloppy/student chic look” – as if there could ever be such a thing.

The pictures above are ones I took while shopping this weekend - Horrifying.

Pairing exercise pants, or sweats with Uggs, a chic top and designer purse does not equal a fashionable or relaxed look my friends. It looks awkward, sloppy, and you look like you’re wearing a loaf of bread on your feet.

Fashionable alternative? Try Yoga jeans - VERY comfortable (it feels like wearing pj’s) but they are denim!They’re perfect for running around town or chasing the kids. Cole Haan is also a fabulous alternative for comfortable footwear.

What do you think of Uggs? What do you think of them being paired with sweat/yoga pants?

  1. I like them, but definitely NOT with sweatpants, sooo gross. I'm trying to stop wearing mine though (I have EMUs, so a cheaper version)

  2. As for me, I would only advice that women wear it when they need to rush out quick just to get somethings (there are times like that). But not as a weekly or daily thing, its not flattering at all :)
