to UGG or not to UGG?

Ok, so i really am comtemplating just finally diving in and buying real Ugg boots. i have always wanted a pair, and i need to just buy some and quit pondering about them. Especially since it's been 70 degrees the past 2 days here in TX, i need to get these soon before it's too hot to even sport them around town!

So i need some feedback from all you Ugg owners! :)

1. Do i do the tall or shorter ones? 2. Do i do the dark brown chestnut, or the sand color?










3. Do i stay true to size, or go a size smaller? hearing that i need to go a size smaller...
Any UGG advice is welcome. :)

Spanks!
Sal

Definitely TO UGG. i love love love my uggs...so much that I have 2 pair. For sure the tall. I have the sand color will buy the shade darker the next time (not sure what color name it has, but it is not a dark chocolate brown and not the light sand color)...I would for sure go a size down if you are getting the plain uggs. however, if you choose to go the fancy route and get a jazzed up pair, then you may stay true to size. Just my input. Welcome to the Ugg world!

Sally girl! You HAVE to do it. You'll never look back. I have gotten so much use out of mine since Christmas. In fact, slipped them on this morning for a quick and chilly Shipley's run... hehe :)
I vote Chestnut (the darker color) because it doesn't show as much dirt. Also--you have to buy the UGG protective spray they sell at Spice that is kind of like a Scotch Guard for them (spray them once a month). I also vote "tall"---so versatile because you can roll them down with the fur showing if you want them shorter. Oooh---another tip---I found mine cheaper at onlineshoes.com (make sure it's a reputable online shoe company---lots of fakes out there), but went to Dillard's beforehand and tried them on so I'd know exactly what size to order. (btw---still laughing that we have the same background!) :)

sal,
you are so cute you should show off those hot-mama legs fo sho! i think the tall ones are cute, but i like the classic short ones too!! oh the decisions! i think they look adorable when people wear them with shorts, so you can sport them a little longer maybe? it is an investment!

GO UGGS! i had been eyeing them forever and just got some about two months ago. of course i am going to vote for what i got since i love mine...tall chocolate brown! except i went with a 9 since i have an 8 1/2 foot and they fit perfectly!??! whatever your choice, they will be darling on you and you will wear them like socks. SO comfy! xoxo!

Go for it! I always had fake ones and my mom bought me the tall dark ones with some ribbon looking thing down the back (bad description) for Christmas and I LOVE them! Go one size down for sure! I am a 9 and had to exchange mine for an 8.
