DD has asked for UGG boots for Christmas.
Where is the best place to buy ??

Depends on whether you want the (IMHO very overpriced) UGG Australia boots, or whether she'll be happy with a pair of generic sheepskin boots. You'll spend about half as much on the latter. There have been some recent threads on this subject so just do a search and I'm sure you'll find some good suggestions.

What size is she?

My DD is 7 and has these:

emus

She is happy with them (refers to them as uggs) and they are decent quality - I have both uggs and emus and wouldn't want to choose between them for quality.

I think the best place is going to depend on the size of your daughter's feet and what style she is specifically after, plus as CocoK has stated what specific brand she wants.

Try TK Max. Don't know if they're still doing them but i bought a pair of 'BearPaws' boots from there 18 months ago. Identical to the traditional UGG but only £25ish (can't remember exactly how much!). Not sure if they do childrens but mine are an adult size 3. LOVE them & they're still going strong - doing much better than my mates UGGs!

I have Bearpaws too and would recommend them.

thanks everyone will have a look at your suggestions

But hey, go ahead if you want to look like you have an ankle deformity.
