Ugg Australia Trunk Show Sneak Peek…Hot Boots for Fall

Posted on 30 June 2008 by Wendy O

Couture in the City was lucky enough to get a sneak peek at the new Ugg Australia fall line, and let me tell you, we’re officially excited about cool weather dressing. With 14 new looks to love, this is not the Ugg’s brand that you remember. Sure, there’s still plenty of shearling looks to go around, but this season, it’s all about streamlined sophistication.One of the sexiest looks from this collection was the Oliviya…super versatile and feminine, these ankle boots are flattering on almost any body type and work easily with skirts and slacks.

For a more rugged look, our editors picked Cargo III…these are the ulitmate weekend chic boot. Pair these with tucked-in skinny jeans to get the most mileage out of this look.

Cargo III

Our favorite, must have pair for the season has to be the Seline…ivory, wedge, knee-high…what’s not to love? I can see these paired with a cable-knit sweater dress and a latte on a frosty winter’s morn…gotta have these!

Check out the trunk show for yourself at Nordstrom starting June 30…they are taking pre-orders now, so snap up your favorites before they are gone!
