As Y2K fashion creeps back into the trend cycle, it’s safe to say Uggs are officially back. After a few seasons in the spotlight, the iconic shoe brand has proved they are here to stay. Whether you’re dusting off your favorite pair from the back of your closet or patiently waiting for the popular platform boots and slippers to come back into stock, you might be at a standstill with how to style the sheep-lined shoes.
Although the California brand first hit the scene with a focus on coziness, their current rotation has rebranded to suit every possible aesthetic. Newer releases like the Dipper boot, seen on style stars like Emily Ratajkowski and Lori Harvey, feature a sock-like form-fitting top and a thick platform base. Of course, the styles we know and love like the classic slipper and boot are still just as popular. But, now we have a whole new perspective when it comes to styling them.
If you typically throw on your boots with ratty sweatpants and an old hoodie to run to the mailbox or the grocery store, totally valid. But, you might be surprised by how many other ways you can wear your favorite shoes once the temperatures dip. Thankfully for us, Uggs are a lot more versatile than we realize—so, our editors came up with ideas on outfits to wear with Uggs.
“Uggs may have a cozy vibe, but they can pretty much match any aesthetic you’re going for. And thanks to the New Heights platform silhouette, Uggs just got even more chic.

“Bright colors will never go out of style, so if you don’t know what to wear your Uggs with—go bold. Gigi’s yellow outfit screams cool girl, and her Uggs truly complete the ensemble. If anything, this look is proof that Uggs can be just as stylish as any other shoe.” —Kleigh Balugo, Trending Beauty Writer
“Let’s face it, Uggs are the ideal fall shoe. They’re cozy and warm, yet cute enough to wear proudly. My go-to fall outfit is my favorite sweater, bootcut jeans, and a pair of platform Uggs. Not only does that ‘fit make me feel comfy all day long, I also feel presentable enough for the office or dinner with friends.” —Kleigh Balugo, Trending Beauty Writer
