UGH Boots


I have a really good idea. Let's wear some tight-ass shorts and a sweet, little blouse on this beautiful 70-degree day. Oh wait, I can't forget my UGG boots-- nothing screams beautiful summer weather like a nice pair of sheepskin-lined boots.
Come. On.
A few years ago, when this UGG trend first began, I'll admit, I was a fan. I thought they were the cutest thing. Throw on a pair of skinny jeans and a cute scarf-- the UGG-extravaganza had my support. But then, ladies across the nation decided to take this trend to the next level. I would like to make it clear that unless you live in an area where the temperature is below 45 degrees year-round, the UGG boots are strictly a SEASONAL trend. Honestly, look at the picture. I love the girl to death and I am a huge fan, but I am not about to follow any sort of trend that Britney Spears was rockin' during her little crazy phase. This really should have been a red flag to the UGG nation.
Listen, I am aware that UGGs are uber-cute and all your friends are wearing them. I am aware that spending $140 on a pair of shoes somehow makes you feel like you are superior than me and my Old Navy flip-flops. I am aware that you lack a backbone and will follow any sort of trend-trap society thrusts upon you. But, I urge you to accept my advice on the matter. As you walk across campus in these ridiculous shoes, I am behind you. Judging you. Pitying you. How about you ditch those UGGs for the next eight months, okay? Okay.

P.S. About those tight-ass shorts I mentioned earlier, you best bet that I'll be getting to those in another post.
Not cool. Buttcheek = no bueno.
