Shecky’s

I really love my Uggs, so when I heard about the limited Jimmy Choo UGG collection, I was intrigued. The casual-comfy shoe has been taken up a notch with studded embellishment and fun fringe. Not all bad in my opinion, but the reviews around the office were definitely split. Some said plain old UGG-ly, some said designer-worthy Choos, but the main consensus was: $795 for UGGs, really?

For shoes that are more comfort than fashion, save your dollars and invest in a pair of classic Jimmy Choos that never go out of style. For a similar look for less, buy yourself a bedazzler, get a flirty fringe version that won’t break the bank or try Minnetonka® shearling-lined boots ($168) from J. Crew.
