Uggs: In or out

Ugg boots have been a fashion item for years now. But as they return, will you be slipping a pair on over the weekend?
Here are my pick of classic and the more unusual Uggs...
Ugg Australia's Rina is an updated version of the classic, flat ugg, with this seasons hottest metallic colours and a wrap around cotton ribbon. These come in on the pricier end at £200. Available in black, brown or metallic gold.


Another Ugg Australia find was these crotchet style ugg boots. I've had my eye on these ever since I first saw them in Selfridges and they are again on the more pricier end of budgets totalling £100. Available in black, indigo or mink.
If you are a fan of the shorter, classic uggs, NEXT has a mid priced pair for £30. You can wear them with the tops up or folded over to show some of the soft fur that lines the inside. Available in black or chestnut.

I know there are some of you who long to wear uggs for aomfort but just can't bring yourselves to do it and ruin your smart image! So what better place to wear uggs than inside the comfort of your own home! Here's a few I found...

These snuggle boots are from NEXT and available in cream or lilac. They are £15 and guaranteed to be supersoft!

These were made with the ultimate girly girl in mind. Pop out to put grab the milk on the doorstep and watch all those stares at your toasty warm pink girly suggs! £12 and only available in pink from NEXT.

Have greecian gladiator sandals outstayed their welcome?

How long have gladiatoresqe sandals been "in" for? Since last summer!! And they are still cropping up in shoe shops on the high street and independant stores nationwide!! Here are my top Grecian picks. Will you still be wearing Grecian style sandals come next summer?

These are £12 in the Faith sale down from £20 and available in gold or pewter (pictured). I would go for the pewter.




These detailed ones are £25 from Topshop. They are new in so if you like them, you'll have plenty of time to lay your hands on a pair or two...Pewter or brown, pewter or brown hmmm, I'll get both.
Have Faith in these £12 ones, down from £18 from Faith (get it?). Very simple, they would go with any outfit. Available in black or silver.
Very festival chick, these would suit the most tomboyish of girls. they ooze rockability and look comfortable. Your purse (or husbands wallet) will feel quite comfortable with these only costing £18!!



Faith have another pair in the sale costing £12 down from £22. The snakeskin effect pattern makes them just that little bit unique...A more tame option is these sandals J by Japer Conran at Debenhams. Dress them down with a sarong over your bikini or up with a glam maxi dress for night time glamour. A bit more pricey at £44 down from £55 but you know you're paying for quality....



You can even get gladiator style heels! I'm sure you would be entering your gladiator mode as soon as you put these Principals shoes £38.50 down from £55 on, all the other ladies would want them. You might have to fight to keep them on!!

Crocs


They're hated at Shiny fashion forums, they're despised in my school ,what do you think of the gawd damn awful *tries to say the word as quietly as possible* Crocs..
They come in all diferent styles and colours and appear in almost every shop you look in. Ohh no Crocs you don't have us all fooled, hyptnotized by the "wonderful" array of colours.
Personally I don't mind the flip flops (athens), they're ok as a sporty/casual flip flop. But the Caymen and other styles are just hideous! Think gems and badges to stick in the little holes of your Crocs is fashionable? Think again! The only people who should wear Crocs are hikers and other workers who need comfort but not style. Just the other day I heard a girl bragging to her friend that she had Crocs! What a thing to brag about. Yes Paris Hilton was spotted wearing them on a beach a few weeks ago but even she can't pull them off! On my most recent holiday I spotted a girl wearing bubblegum pink fake ones with a tartan skirt and I laughed out loud! Why oh why do people want to copy the Croc. Poor souls
They're expensive, they're hidoeus and they will make you look like Donald duck. Still like them?...
