Unlike their mid-calf, boot-shaped cousins -- you know, the ones LA girls like to wear with miniskirts for some unknown reason -- UGG Australia house slippers are clearly meant to be worn indoors, while relaxing and padding around the home. I've given UGG slippers to many people on my gifts lists over the years, both men and women. Without fail, every giftee has praised the addition of UGG slippers to their loungewear wardrobe as nothing short of brilliant.
For women, I really like the UGG Australia Dakota Slipper pictured here. It's a classic house slipper shape, but with the addition of that super comfy UGG sheepskin lining. It comes in 5 colors, of which Pewter and Tobacco are favorites, in sizes from 5 to 12. Everyone from your little sister, to your mom, to your grandma would appreciate this house shoe. Isn't it great when you find a go-to gift with that huge range of possible recipients?
