keep or return?
Permalink Closed

I had to replace my ancient Ultra Short sand Uggs, and when I saw these Uptown II's in Espresso at DSW for $150 with one pair left in my size I couldn't pass it up. I'd always wanted a taller, darker pair of Uggs because of their softness and the darker color hiding stains better.

Question is, will I look ridiculous wearing these, especially since I'm in SoCal? They're so warm and toasty, plus they fit my calves (!) but if I'm going to look like a fashion victim, then I don't want to keep them.

I love those Uggs! But I do think they are better suited for a colder climate than LA, like somewhere that actually sees snow every once in awhile wink.gif

ITA with FashionPrincess.  Adorable, but in SoCal?  How cold does it get there?

Winter nights where I live are generally in the 40s and low 50s. Last winter there was a cold snap with lows in the low 30s and high 20s. My feet freeze when it's below 50 outside.

They're quite cute (and this is coming from a non-Ugg lover!) -- but I agree that they are kind of borderline for LA. If you love them, though, I am in support.

Lilykind, I think you should keep them. Because even though we don't get so cold as some places in the East Coast or Midwest - it still gets really chilly here and personally, I couldn't survive the winter anymore without my uggs. Perfect for going to the beaches, the mountains, and walking the dog in the morning/night, hehe.

I snapped these up for myself about a month ago too for this winter since my short [uggs] were also on their last leg.

if your feet will be freezing, i say keep them! i doubt people will think you are a fashion victim if it really is cold, they'll probably wish that they had some too

Keep! Sounds like you've been wanting something like this for a while. If you got use out of your other Uggs I'm sure you'll wear these.

Thanks ladies,

I was going to rock them on really cold days tucked into pants (as well as underneath wider-legged/flared ones Also), I thought they might be cute with leggings (thermal or thick wooly) and skirts. Still not fashion victim?
