In the past, it was a fashion faux pas to wear your slippers outside the home, just like it was with your pyjamas too – but times have changed in 2024 with comfort at the forefront of our minds when getting dressed every day.
Celebrities like Elsa Hosk and Bella Hadid have shown us that wearing your house shoes, slippers, Ugg boots or whatever you nickname them, outside the house is just as chic as the next ‘it’ sneaker. In fact, in 2022, A-listers and social media made the Platform Ugg Boot viral overnight with many adding to cart and rocking them anytime, anywhere.
So, whether you’re a slip-on, ankle boot, low cut or platform girlie and still wondering whether you’ll look too unhinged or daggy to wear them out; here’s your permission slip to do it and own it! Stuck on how to style them? Here’s some winter inspo guaranteed to exude comfort and style.
With A Matching Jacket
Shearling, teddy and fleece jackets are trending so why not go for a head-to-toe cosy look and match your jacket with your boots? Pair it back with sleek black pants and woven winter accessories.
