spring savvy

*my apologies in advance if i offend anyone by this entry.

alright, so the dumb 40 degree weather has hopefully disappeared until next fall when i will allow it to return only after bearing the hot humidity of summers in pittsburgh. hopefully. but with the warmer weather comes some horrible taste in fashion that i feel i must address here. my hope is that none of you commit such atrocious crimes but again, i am sorry if i do offend you so.

i by no means am miss fashionista guru but i must point out a few simple rules to follow when the warm weather hits us:

1. UGGs were invented to be used year round in places like the adirondack where its always cold and people need them to keep their feet warm (which in turn keeps the body warm). they were invented to be used in places like pittsburgh (and for all intensive purposes, wisconsin) during the WINTER to keep feet warm with PANTS. i don't want to see you dumbasses wearing them with skirts in the spring and fall because if its cold enough to wear the boots i hate so much then its cold enough to wear pants. if you pair these boots with oversized bug-eyed sunglasses then you are a huge dumbass. at UW we have a name for you, its coastie (read number 2 in link).

2. the guys might go crazy when the weather warms up because it means the girls are wearing less clothes. by nature this, of course, is necessary. but please do not wear shirts and shorts that are 8 sizes too small for you because NO ONE wants to see that.

3. i am an advocate of the flip flop BUT please take care of your feet if you are going to done such sole bearing accoutrements.

with your cooperation amanda will be spared much annoyance. thanks ever so much!
