Ugg lovers eat your heart out

You wish you could rock these.

But they belong to Good Mouse, Bad Mouse, who inherited them from her mom.

p.s. Did that sound bitchy? You know I love you even if you do wear Uggs.

p.p.s. But srsly, stop.

  8. I remember receiving a pair of Uggs from a family member for my 13th birthday (which was over a decade ago, mind you). I opened them up, grimaced, then gave them to my little sister for the price of a months worth of dish duty.

    I still feel guilty for taking advantage of her like that.

  12. I will admit that I love my Uggs, but only in private. I do not prance around in them while wearing a miniskirt, thus prompting everyone who sees me to wince and wonder how sweaty and disgusting my feet must be.

    Seriously, I don't think anyone has ever seen me in them, because they are hidden away and reserved for moments of desperation when my feet simply refuse to warm up.

  13. I feel like we've opened up a little support group here. This is healthy, ladies.

  14. Ok, ESB, I don't know about a photo, because I just talked to my mom, and here is what she used to wear them with: "Orange and maroon plaid hiphuggers I made, and a burnt orange turtleneck." She bought them in the winter of 1978/79 for "apres-ski." See, I don't think I can quite live up to that awesomeness. :)

  16. Aside from these being possibly the only cool example in the history of the world, Uggs are, as far as I'm concerned, still those wool-lined slippers that could be bought at any local supermarket for all of $5. They are to be worn with pyjamas in the comfort of your own home, and that is all.

    P.S. I not so secretly loathe the evil American dude who trademarked the term 'Ugg', then threatened tiny Australian businesses with lawsuits if they ever used the word again. You know, the businesses that had been making ugg boots for generations. I'm pretty sure it was the same guy who was behind Ugg Australia. You know, the ones that are made in China and actually have nothing to do with Australia. Except for the lawsuits that is.
