Last week I talked about how to style Ugg boots for every day.  Today I want to continue the convo!

Just about everyone has Uggs in their closet.  Especially during winter, they get worn a ton.  I always struggled with how to style mine so they look fashion-forward and not like I was about to hit the ski slopes.  But I’ve cracked the code!

Of course Uggs are meant to be worn on the mountain, but in case you don’t have a ski vacation planned, here are my tips for wearing them day-to-day.

Tips for Styling Uggs

1. Choose the right bottom – skinny or slim leg pants.  While I love the wide leg trend, Ugg boots are meant to be highlighted, not hidden.  Opt for a slimmer leg to really show them off.  Bonus points for ease of wear – tuck in and go!

2. Pair them with a statement piece.  Whether it’s a pop color like my vintage sweater, or multiple layers (think band tee and leather jacket) for a chic look, pairing Uggs with something a little edgier really brings out the fashion as opposed to the utility.

3. Accessorize. To make Uggs more every day and less sporty, grab a fun accessory.  While my beanie is totally winter-appropriate, it’s edgy too.  The emoji patch is cheeky and compliments the moon boot look.  For another option, try a textured scarf in a pop color, an arm full of bangles or an animal print belt.  I love this studded belt too.

Uggs, But Make it Fashion

I love Uggs.  Every winter they become my go-to shoes for running errands, walking the dog, and just day-to-day life.

While there was once an Uggs + denim mini skirt phase (thank you, Britney) I think most women struggle with how to style Uggs so they look presentable for every day and not just the ski slopes.

Enter the Ugg Fashion Baby collection.

“Fashion Baby is a collection that celebrates the California woman’s spirit and style.  This woman is a beguiling mix of glamour and grunge.  She can be a tomboy or ultra-feminine depending on her mood.”

Hello, could that be any more me?

When I saw these Moto Punk Mini boots I knew I had to have them.  I love the buckled toes and zip-up style.  But the best part is that they can be worn two ways.  Any piece of fashion that is a 2-in-1 is an automatic win in my book.

I styled my Uggs with the top flipped down for a more casual vibe.  For a sleek look, zip them up and buckle them.  You can see the difference in the last two side-by-side photos.  I love them both ways!

To elevate the look and make it wearable for meet-ups with friends, I paired them with my favorite handbag and sunglasses (bonus, they’re both on sale!).  These flip top jeans are super comfortable and go perfectly with the edgy vibe of the boots.  Since the jeans have a fun detail on the high waist, I went for a cropped sweater to show that off.

Voila!  A totally stylish way to wear Uggs for every day.

Later this week I’ll be sharing another way to style Uggs, “but make it fashion” for every day.  My next pair is a more traditional ski boot vibe.  Can’t wait to share them!
