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…

Hide the women and children.

  1. What?!?!? says:

    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.

I’ve been wearing the same one for years (it’s the best). But they don’t make it anymore. So here are some options for replacement.

Three Outfits I’ll Wear All Spring

When I started this blog, influencers still re-wore clothes. There were no haul videos filled with the latest from Shein before it winds up in a beach in Ghana poisoning the planet. There were no sponsored campaigns delivering fresh wardrobes each month. The content machine doesn’t like reruns.

The Find: Like a McCall’s Pattern

When I was young, my Mother used to bring me along when she would go shopping for fabric. As a result, I spent a lot of time, killing time, flipping through pattern books. So when I spotted this dress, I was instantly transported to the pattern table at a Jo-Ann Fabrics.
