Belle's Faux Pas Are Breeding

Jun 21, 2010

Ugg Austrailia Duck Shoe (Nordstrom, $90)

If a topsider and an Ugg Boot mated, it would look something like this.  Blech. Clearly, this is the next step in the Faux Pas quest for world domination. 

What’s next?  Shearling Crocs?  Oh, wait…

    These are awesome! What are you talking about? No faux pas here!

  2. Bree says:

    I don’t like them because they’re Uggs. But they’re very similar to the iconic LL Bean Bean Boots.

  3. Sarah says:

    Not. Cool.

  4. These feel so LL Bean to me. In a retro way. They sort of make me want to fishing…

  5. Rachel says:

    Yeah, I don’t really think these are so bad. I’m not going to wear them, but I wouldn’t think it a faux pas is someone else did.

  6. firecracker says:

    they’re ugg’s version of the LLBean duck boot, not so much of the top sider family. classic new england prep, rather than classic southern style.

    the reason the duck boot is so loved is not necessarily its look, but its versatility and ability to get drenched. a sheepskin lining destroys that. perhaps this unfortunately ubiquitous brand can go the same route as croc: AWAY.

The Find: Shirts That Don’t Gape

I remember when Rochelle Behrens launched The Shirt — a button-down blouse with anti-gape technology (a patented internal button that keeps the look smooth). The idea seemed brilliant, but at the time, my bust didn’t require an extra button. One baby later, I understand the need for some extra security.
