Honestly? We didn’t think we’d see Millie Bobby Brown and Jennifer Lopez’s names in the same sentence either – until today.
Whilst both multihyphenate, fashion-forward icons, one is a 20-year-old superstar who has Gen-Z fashion and film lovers in a chokehold, and the other is the definition of an icon, whose career in the spotlight began before Millie was even born.
When it comes to off-duty dressing, however, it appears there is one thing they have found neutral ground on: Y2K UGGs are always a good idea.

She layered with a soft pink scarf, and chose a pair of comfy Tasman UGG boots to give her look an air of It-girl casual.
“Worn by the likes of Gigi Hadid, Selena Gomez and more ‘It’ girls than I have fingers to count on, the ways to wear the world’s most notable slippers, which also come in a coveted platform “Tazz” iteration, are quite literally endless,” says H! Fashion‘s Orion Scott.

Championing its revival over recent years, JLo made her boots paired with a Hermès Birkin her winter uniform in 2024.

On her feet, she opted for a pair of platform UGGs that complimented the neutral shade of her large Hermès Birkin in a chic croc print, cream colourway, giving her ensemble a touch of ‘quiet luxury’.
The moral of the story? whether you’re a Gen-Z It-girl or a 50-year-old fashion lover, UGG boots and a tracksuit is the coolest off-duty ensemble of the season.
