UGG Golden Glow
Platforms are all the rage right now, and they’re especially perfect for giving you a little extra height so you can get a better view of the show. Hop on the chunky sandal trend with the added benefit of the UGG comfort that lets you rock them all day and all night. They also come in a ton of cool colors to choose from.

UGG Goldenrise
Did we mention that platforms are in? Well, how much platform is too much platform? Answer: the limit does not exist. With the UGG Goldenrise, you get a sky-high platform base made from sugarcane EVA and a molded footbed. Plus, they’re ultra-customizable – the back strap can be wrapped around the ankle, swapped for a shorter slingback, or removed completely to make a slide. However you wear it, you’ll be turning heads.
