You'll Love The UGG Classic Cardy

As a stay-at-home mom, it is very important to me that what I put on my feet is both stylish and comfortable. If I could, I would wear slippers all day. I would wear them outside if I could. I go to dinner with friends and it quickly hits me that I am not just a mom - I am a 20-something who, at one time not too long ago, wore heels because it was Wednesday (I write, as my daughter snickers at me).

Enter the Ugg Australia Women’s Classic Cardy Boot. In a word: perfection. The Ugg Classic Cardy is a boot that is knit out of a wool blend. It looks and feels like a big, comfortable sweater that you would wear on a cold and rainy day. I slipped the Classic Cardy on my foot and boy, was it ever comfortable! I found my perfect compromise between comfort and fashion. Uggs are traditionally small on my feet. The

Classic Cardy does not fit that way. In fact, I recommend to go down a full size (they are sold as US sizes) because unfortunately, these Ugg boots do not come in half sizes. To be honest, though, after wearing these for about a week, you will not even know the difference. By that point, they will begin to mold to your foot because of the foam insole. Beyond getting used to the size, there is no break-in period required.

The black Ugg Classic Cardy is my favorite; however, the boot also comes in grey, teal (“soothing sea”), pink (“shell rose”), tan (“tawny brown”), cream (“white sand”), and plum. The best part about this

boot is that it is versatile. The knit material is flexible, so it can act as a tall boot (think: over skinny jeans), fold over and button as a shorter boot, and do anything you want in between.

If you know anything about Uggs, you know they are extremely cozy on the inside. The Ugg Classic Cardy has both the cozy look and feel, not just one or the other. It’s an Ugg, so you know it feels

comfortable but Ugg also took this boot to the next level in terms of style. There are three buttons on the side that truly give this boot a “now” look. This boot gets a 9 in cuteness and a 10 in comfort!

I am certainly not the only one who feels that the Ugg Classic Cardy is a great boot. One Cardy owner said that the boots are "comfortable and warm." Another customer said, "These are awesome boots. They are warm, versatile, and very cute. They are also very comfortable and look great with jeans." Speaking of versatility, one customer even went so far as to say that the boots "are great for wearing on vacations while in the mountains or a walk around the mall."

So, if you are looking for a happy medium between comfort and style, the Ugg Classic Cardy is your boot. Winter is almost over, though, so hurry! Go!
