(Cover) - EN Star Style - Dannii Minogue has admitted the stylish new array of UGG boots on offer have changed her views on casual footwear.

The 39-year-old Australian pop star is famed for her glamorous image, having collaborated with best pal Tabitha Somerset Webb on elegant fashion range Project D.

Dannii doesnt often leave the house without a pair of high heels, although shes becoming less strict with her footwear choices nowadays. Before, the fashionista thought it was sloppy to leave the house in snug sheepskin boots, but the trendy UGGs which are now available have made her realise practicality can be stylish.

The biker boot crossed with an UGG boot is pure genius. I have been very vocal about not wearing UGGs outside, unless youre slipping out to the gym for a yoga session, but boots like this are changing my mind, she explained in the British edition of Glamour magazine.

Dannii now knows looking good isnt just about high heels and fancy robes, and the star believes simple touches such as manicured nails provide a ladylike appearance on a day-to-day basis.

The star changes her nail colour depending on how shes feeling, and thinks its fundamental her hands are always in top condition as shes so expressive with them.

My tip for instant elegance is to keep your nails perfectly manicured. I talk with my hands, so fingernails are high on my priority list. My two fail-safe colours are Essies Ballet Slippers (pale pink) and Wicked (dark red). Which to wear? Depends on my mood! she laughed. (C) Cover Media
