This post will show you how to wear Uggs in 2022.

For a few years in the 2010s, Uggs were considered the epitome of basic. At the time, most highbrow fashion experts dubbed them the ugliest shoes to ever exist and deemed them “out,” permanently.

All of that has changed. Uggs are extremely hot again — and what a turnaround it’s been.

The image of a girl in leggings, a hoodie and Uggs has long been looked down upon as lazy fashion. But the trend wasn’t always associated with negative stereotypes. After all, the Ugg has been a go-to shoe choice since the early 2000s, and a staple in every woman’s wardrobe.

And what’s not to love about Uggs, after all? They’re comfortable, they go with everything, and they’re easy to just slip on. At one time I owned six different pairs.

But when they suddenly became the symbol of tackiness, my Uggs were moved to the shame corner of my room. Only to be taken out on ski trips as an après ski necessity.

2020, however, changed all of this. We communally decided to be comfortable at home, and what better shoe to be comfortable in than Uggs? All types of cozy slippers and pull-on boots have made a comeback during quarantine.

Hence, Uggs made a triumphant return, taking center stage in shoe trends. Not to mention, they came back better than ever, in a much shorter style, that removed much of the heaviness and chunkiness of the boots.

From Kaia Gerber, to Kendall Jenner and Joan Smalls, Uggs are the new show of choice for all models off duty. And this year we’re basically all models off duty, so it’s no wonder Uggs are picking up steam. Not to mention Andre Leon Talley’s iconic Vogue shoot wearing Uggs that took the entire world by surprise.

But how do we wear Uggs in a non basic way? Even, dare I say, a fashion-forward way? In a 2022 way?
