“Revenge Look” features a black mini skirt, oversized blazer, and crop top with a pop of color, the GoldenGlow in Mangosteen, for an intentional look with balanced proportions.

“Resort Chic” includes a monochrome set paired back with the GoldenGlow in Bison Brown and silver hardware accents to elevate an otherwise neutral look.

Tapping into a more edgy side, “Grunge Look” achieves the effortless, cool-girl aesthetic with a leather set and graphic tee styled with the GoldenGlow in Sea Salt.

“Blue Festival Look” shows the sandal’s seamless transition from day to night with the GoldenGlow in Caterpillar.

“Collegiate Chic” closes the lookbook with the ultimate accessory: socks. Featuring a micro-mini skirt, a sweater layered over a button-down shirt, and the GoldenGlow in Current, the look creates a promising case for the socks-with-sandals debate.

Top Row: GoldenGlow in Bison Brown, Mangosteen, Current, Black, $100 Bottom Row: GoldenGlow in Sea Salt, Caterpillar, Shaded Clover, Seal, $100 Available March 28

The new Classic Boot-turned-sandal celebrates the brand's heritage DNA of laidback California aesthetic, further embracing the spirit of self-expression, supporting a carefree lifestyle, and inspiring adventure into the unknown.

The UGG GoldenGlow Sandal, $100, serves as a key style in the Golden Collection, the brand's next installment of its seasonal Feels Like UGG campaign. Super lightweight and ultra-comfortable, the water-friendly GoldenGlow is a fully adjustable sandal. It's made from springy and supportive sugarcane EVA, ready to wear through rain and shine. Stacked on a platform with a lug sole and complete with a grippy footbed, this pair looks as dynamic as it'll feel.

The UGG® GoldenGlow Sandal is available now at UGG.com, UGG® stores, and select wholesale retailers nationwide.
