ladyjane83 Posted January 20, 2010 Posted January 20, 2010 I ask because I have a 3rd date with a guy, but just going to his place to watch a movie (I havent been there before) and I am being a total girl and dont know what to wear!! The first two dates were dinner and drinks so I could dress up properly and wear heels etc. I'm not a trainers kind of girl, or ballet pumps. I wear heels at night, flip flops in summer, uggs in winter. As is freezing at the mo, I am thinking skinny jeans, nice top/sweater and my uggs,thats how im comfortable...but I know some guys HATE ugg boots on girls! so a quick survey...what do guys think of Uggs? I know...this is the most SHALLOW post ever. but oh well!
USMCHokie Posted January 20, 2010 Posted January 20, 2010 Wear what you feel comfortable in...wear what is "you"...if it's uggs, then wear uggs...you shouldn't feel obligated to dress a certain way...if this guy is into you, then he'll be cool with your uggs...if he isn't, well then it's his loss... I'm a t-shirt and jeans guy, so for anything casual, I'll be in a t-shirt and jeans... I think your outfit would be fine. P.S. I think uggs are silly.
New Again Posted January 20, 2010 Posted January 20, 2010 My ex hated Uggs. He also hated my Frye boots. I don't know what he expected women to wear in the winter in the snow. I don't think any guy, except maybe a complete douche, would not be interested in you because of your footwear.
Stung Posted January 20, 2010 Posted January 20, 2010 Who cares? You're going to his house, it's casual, it's freezing weather, you want to be comfortable. The whole point of Uggs is that they're monumentally warm and comfortable and comforting to feet that are bent into heels half the time. Wear what you want to wear as long as it's clean and venue-appropriate. Personally some guy who would sideline me after a couple successful dates because of my shoes would not be a big loss.
conehead Posted January 20, 2010 Posted January 20, 2010 Go with casual leather boots, sneakers, or flats.... I'm a girl and I'm not a fan of uggs either
Crazy Magnet Posted January 20, 2010 Posted January 20, 2010 I'm a girl, but I say wear what you feel comfortable in. Uggs are made for cold weather. I don't care how stupid my Uggs look, if it's cold, they are on my feet. I eve have a black pair and a brown pair. Love me, love my tragic taste in footwear!
Pyro Posted January 20, 2010 Posted January 20, 2010 i don't know what an ugg is google it. They are very popular.
TheBigQuestion Posted January 20, 2010 Posted January 20, 2010 Uggs are just about the ugliest footwear on the planet, and for some reason everyone and their mother owns a pair. I give a woman a lot of credit for not owning them, but I wouldn't completely write someone off for it.
meerkat stew Posted January 20, 2010 Posted January 20, 2010 The look of uggs doesn't bother me, but the faddishness does. Much prefer a woman in roper boots or some other type of real boot than uggs, but what boot she wears wouldn't be on my radar in the grand scheme. If she took the uggs off and had those multicolored socks with toes in them or some other funny socks, that would be a mild plus for playfulness and not being a slave to fashion.
Stung Posted January 20, 2010 Posted January 20, 2010 Yeah, they're ugly, hence the name. But most fashionable women's footwear hurts, or is thinly constructed and therefore cold in cold weather. Uggs are warm and comfortable. For a casual night in, when you're maybe hoping to get some, you'd really kick a girl out of bed cause she came over wearing Uggs? If that were the case, she's better off knowing that about you up front. Full disclosure: I have a pair that I only wear a few times a year in the winter when it's cold enough, but when I have them on, it's like my feet are lovingly strapped to woolly lambs from heaven.

Uggs aren't a "fad" for any reason except they are massively comfortable and warm.
Rainman760 Posted January 20, 2010 Posted January 20, 2010 Ugg boots are great; it you're looking to repel any man within a 50 mile radius!
alphamale Posted January 20, 2010 Posted January 20, 2010 and they are tacky...like half the girls are wearing them and they look like a pack of eskimoes
someotherguy Posted January 20, 2010 Posted January 20, 2010 I think they're cute when they're all she's wearing.
Author ladyjane83 Posted January 20, 2010 Author Posted January 20, 2010 well, I met the guy online and in the first stages when we were emailing we had lots of conversations about things we like in a partner then we decided to talk about what we dont like appearance wise, what would put us off etc. It was a silly fun conversation not really serious but we both were quite picky and specific and in the things he doesnt like girls wearing he mentioned cowboy boots...so I'm thinking if he really hated ugg boots then he would have said it then right?
Lishy Posted January 20, 2010 Posted January 20, 2010 OMG I looooooove my Uggs!!!!!!! This thread is depressing me!! My ex bought me my Uggs and I have them in every colour and every length!! They are like slippers but soooooo warm!! I am wearing my camel ones right now with leggings and a roll neck jumper and I am sooooo warmmmmmmmmmmm!!!!!!!!! Please dont diss the Ugg!! Diss my kid but not the Uggs!!! lol
alphamale Posted January 20, 2010 Posted January 20, 2010 Please dont diss the Ugg!! these abominations are not considered proper date wear...its like a guy showing up for a date wearing snow-shoes
tigressA Posted January 20, 2010 Posted January 20, 2010 these abominations are not considered proper date wear...its like a guy showing up for a date wearing snow-shoes :lmao: I agree! They're atrocious and I will never ever ever wear them. I hate them just as much as Crocs.
boogieboy Posted January 20, 2010 Posted January 20, 2010 Uggs are short for UGLY. Uggs look like alaska boots. Toss the crappy uggs and wear something warm but feminine. Theres plenty of boots for winter that look feminine AND are comfortable.
OnlyJake Posted January 20, 2010 Posted January 20, 2010 :lmao: I agree! They're atrocious and I will never ever ever wear them. I hate them just as much as Crocs. Have you ever tried a pair on? More importantly, have you ever worn a pair outside in subzero temperatures? Crocs are stupid, because they serve no purpose, they're just cheap, ugly clogs.

Crocs are stupid, because they serve no purpose, they're just cheap, ugly clogs. Yes, I have tried a pair on and I still will never wear them. I find them incredibly ugly. I realize that they're warm and comfortable, but I do have sufficiently warm and comfortable shoes to wear that are much cuter than Uggs.
meerkat stew Posted January 20, 2010 Posted January 20, 2010 OK. Let's get one thing straight. Uggs are soft, but far from warm in any enduring way in extreme outdoor conditions. There are much better things to wear on one's feet if the goal is warmth. Live possums for instance...
