Ugg Collection Preview

Last night, I attended the launch of the Ugg Collection, the new high-end line from your favorite cozy-boots brand (at left, I’m with Jaimen and Sara…which is where I stayed all evening, because it was such a very, very fun place to be).

I’m going to request a pass on the general dishevelment (and the Hunters) – I’d been running around in the pouring rain all day and only managed to get it together to purchase an umbrella from a street stand around six…which, if you’re in NYC, you know is exactly when the rain stopped. Groovy.

The new collection from Ugg is their foray into upscale-land…and it’s a successful one. The shoes and bags are expensive, for sure (footwear starts at $495; handbags start at $650), but they combine luxe details with rugged glamour beautifully, and are just perfect for fall.

My favorite styles:

The shoe at the top of my must-buy list for fall is a lace-up wedge bootie with a fold-over cuff…and these are BLUE.

The look I’m coveting in a slightly more everyday color (really…I’d wear these every day).

What I meant by “luxe glamour.”

And finally, this purse is such a stunning color, and would wear gorgeously over time.

The collection will be available at select high-end retailers, UGG Flagship stores and www.uggaustralia.com beginning on September 1, 2011.
