someone explain the scarf thing to me

[candyshopgirl]

Okay
I dunno maybe its the new style and I'm just old (29 years old)or maybe it does keep you warm. Okay here in good old **** we are having fall weather. Not really super cold but enough for a sweatshirt and some light weight jeans.Can someone explain to me the scarf thing,you know when girls wear tank tops,shorts and sandals but then wear a scarf wrapped around their neck. I can't imagine it keeps your entire body warm.Then they wonder why they get the plague this time of year.No thank you I'll stick to my light weight sweaters and jeans. I mean somedays its 50* outside in the morning so if you're already wearing summer clothes why would you try to wear something like a scarf.

I wear a scarf in summer...

one of the reasons may be the main vein that runs down the back of you neck (its where you put and ice pack if your over heated or a scarf if your cold
because I take singing lessons I have dozens of the things, if I turned up without a scarf I would be practically beaten espeically if there was a cold wind outside

I can understand your frustration though, I remember working one winter on Robson street Vancouver and girls would come in with mid drift puffa jackets.... the skin would be purple and blue it was so cold, but they had to show skin no matter the cost

I always wanted to ask how many bladder infections they got each winter...

Well thats a little bit different: You have to protect your singing voice,but it has to be a fashion trend I see probadly 50% of the girls doing it.

Don't bother - they wouldn't understand the question or it's meaning.

Oh, there are so many 'fashion' related trends I will never understand.

What's with chicks who wear the big, furry "Captain Caveman" boots (I think they call them 'Uggs')?
I just don't get it... they will dress otherwise normally... then whip out an ugly-ass pair of boots from 10,000 BC.

Why do some guys have to layer Polo shirts (and pop the collar on all of them)?
Let's face it... you look like a douche if you pop your collar. You look like a super-ultra-megazoid douche if you have 2 or 3 popped collars in the same outfit.

Why is it that some women will dress for work in very sensible, reasonable business attire... and then finish off the outfit with a pair of flip-flops on their feet?
I see this almost every day. Women in very smart business suits... until you get to their feet where they look like they are getting ready to enter a prison shower room.

Why do people pay top-dollar for a pair of jeans that are frayed, ripped, faded and look like someone dumped a gallon of latex paint on them?
These are usually the guys with about 3-4 days of scruff on their face and a hairdo that looks like they combed their lovely locks with a greasy chicken carcass.
I wasn't aware that looking like you just came off work as a handyman/housepainter made one fashionable.

I don't get why they pay a couple hundred dollars for them (No offense to anyone on the board who has paid that much for them, I just wouldn't). I bought a pair that looks alot better than Uggs do or $20 at Target. I like mine because they are so comfortable, they really help my ankle that I had surgery on a while ago, and keep my feet warm while walking to class.

Crocs and Vera Bradley bags. That's what I don't understand. And half-jackets.

But that's just me...I'm cheap.

[clod75]

It's just a fashion thing. I don't get the 10 year old girls dressing like lil hoochie mommas.

Nope. Don't get that, OR their parent's at all.

I could never understand decorating Crocs like it's a friggin Christmas tree....

It's a shame they don't put the crocs on the curb for the garbage man to pick up after Christmas is over.

I can see wearing something like that around the house, but I wouldn't wear them in public. Especially when they have dirt and various mystery residues on them I have a pair of flip flops that I use when I'm stepping outside to put out some mail or feed the animals, but they don't leave the house for the world to see them in all their nasty wonder.
