J Lo, Charli XCX and Fashion People Are Now Wearing Their UGGs with Anti-Skinny Jeans


This winter, UGGs have played a main role in the wardrobes of celebrities.
From Kendall Jenner's pairing with a chic French-inspired cardigan to Jennifer Lopez and her series of denim and UGG formulas, we've had no shortage of inspiration. However, I've noticed that where once upon a time, A-listers would default to wearing the classic shearling boots and clogs with skinny jeans or leggings, an altogether a baggier denim silhouette has taken over.
For her off-duty looks in 2024, Lopez has relied upon a laid-back combination of loose-fitting, wide-leg jeans combined with different plain tops, platform UGGs and—she is a megastar, after all—a nonchalantly elbow-hooked Birkin bag.
Meanwhile, on the streets and on our feeds, we've noticed influencers and fashion insiders following a similar pattern. Whether carpenter, skater or turn-up, jeans are looking very relaxed and loose, pudding over the boot rather than sticking to the leg like the skintight fits that were the perfect partner when UGGs boomed the first time around.
Many are opting for short jackets to help balance out the look, which just so happens to be yet another outfit trend we've noticed in the past week. From Lila Moss to Zoë Kravitz, celebrities are choosing these smaller jackets instead of bulky winter coats to pair neatly with their denim.
UGG supporters are flitting between platform and traditional flat-sole styles, interchanging them depending on the length of the jeans and the desired aesthetic. The overall effect is ultra-casual and the kind of look you could throw on to appear low-effort for a coffee date, but there's a level of polish that comes from the choosing of a cool knit or luxe tote bag.
Interestingly, it's not just about traditional blue jeans and the classic caramel shade of UGGs. I've spotted all-cream and all-white outfits as a canvas for this wide-leg-denim-and-boot match, for an outfit more reminiscent of a Nancy Myers movie than a streetwear lookbook.
If you're into the idea of UGGs with wide-leg jeans, then keep scrolling for the pieces you need to re-create the look.
Shop UGG Boots and Wide-Leg Jeans:
COS is known for its wide-leg trousers, but the jeans are just as good.
Horseshoe jeans fall into the baggy jeans category and can work well with UGGs.
I like the idea of a cuffed jean worn casually with thick-soled UGGs.
Arket's Cloud jeans are a fashion-person favourite.
