About a month ago, UGGs made it to Oprah’s list of favorite things. It also ended its special celebrity boots auction last December 14. Both occasions seem to indicate that the year has indeed ended wonderfully for UGG Australia.

Oprah’s November 20 episode in Macon, Georgia featured Oprah’s UGG boot style favorite this year, the tall crochet boots. Oprah herself can’t do without the light but comfortable feel of UGG boots.

Making it on Oprah’s list is a definite indication that UGG boots are not a thing of the past. Both celebrities and average people alike will need and will love the comfort and style of finely made, quality UGG boots.

Oprah’s Christmas list however is not the only sign of UGG boots’ ability to endure. As sales figures reveal, this year’s earnings from UGG boots are set to surpass those of last year’s. No matter what the critics say about UGG boots being a thing of the past, sales seem to prove otherwise.

Aside from the Oprah show highlight, one other event helped put a perfect cap on UGG Australia’s year. From December 1-14, the company held its annual auction for celebrity designed UGGs. The proceeds of the auction are intended for St. Jude’s Children’s Research Hospital which has been receiving December auction proceeds from UGG Australia for three straight years. This year, more than $30,000 dollars will go to the research hospital.

It may seem unimaginable for some but each celebrity pair of boots sold for hundreds of dollars. Some went way beyond a thousand dollars. The designs on the celebrity UGG footwear were interpretations of the theme “hope.” The hand painted boots also clearly reflected the personalities and preferences of each of the celebrity artists. This year’s painters included Miley Cyrus, Eva Longoria, Whoopi Goldberg, Ellen de Generes, John Travolta, Penelope Cruz and Matthew Mc Conaughey.

The year has indeed ended well for everyone’s favorite warm boots and there is no doubt that better years will sill come. Even without celebrity names attached to the sheepskin boots, UGG footwear has many devoted followers. This is only because many more seem to realize every year that UGG boots and other types of footwear provide the best in casual comfort and style.

You can keep your feet, happy, comfortable and mobile even way below zero degrees. UGG boots and shoes are lined with quality sheepskin that keeps feet warm while taking away moisture and sweat. You are left with only dry and well protected feet. Its flexible but durable sole allows optimum movement unlike other boots.

Users needn’t worry about the look of UGG footwear either. The suede or crochet exterior in some boot styles will definitely keep you in style. UGG boots can be worn with a wide variety of clothing choices. The most popular pairing is still definitely the boots with jeans. Go for tight jeans tucked in or loose ones over boots.

If the popularity of UGGs is any indication at all, UGG enthusiasts should head off to the nearest retail store while supplies last.
