Well, the Jimmy Choo and UGG collaboration has finally given birth to the much awaited: STAR STUDDED UGG CLASSIC BOOTS. Say what? Yeah, here it is folks. Nicki Hilton was one of the first to buy these UGGs and wear them. Then of course, tweeted the universe with… “love my new Jimmy Choo UGGs”. Now, I love my UGGs as much as the next gal but I would never pay $795 for this boot. I think this is living proof that some people have more money than good sense.
This boot won’t be out for the general public until October, but Nicky managed to get her feet into a pair already. The “Chugg” boots (as they’ve been endearingly dubbed by members of the fashion industry) will be a part of the brands’ capsule collection, which was born out of Choo president Tamara Mellon’s love for the sheepskin style. “Other than Jimmy Choos, UGGs are the only other footwear I have in my wardrobe,” said Mellon. But I have to say I kinda like the studs. I’m thinking of taking an old pair of Chestnut UGG Classic boots I own and attempting a studded version of my own design. I think a visit to the craft store and an ice pick will yield some spectacular results. Well, maybe not as spectacular as the star studded Choo shoes, but something interesting at any rate. And let’s not forget the dollar savings! I can’t wait to get started.
