Anyways, I woke up this morning and looked at my phone at it said 61 for the temperature. I put on some legging cutoffs and a long sleeve T-shirt and went outside to a perfect morning. However, as I was walking around campus I started to notice something. People dress for the season, NOT the weather. Everyone on campus is wearing: leggings, boots, high socks, huge infinity scarfs, and everything else that I would wear on a cold fall day. Its not necessarily weather appropriate, but its season appropriate.
That got me thinking, the first chilly day in the fall people break out their UGGs and scarfs and are ready to jump right into winter clothes. Being used to 90-100 degrees summer days 60 degrees feels miserable and cold to us even though in theory thats a perfect day. Now jump ahead a few months. After a winter a making the trek across campus in below freezing weather and walking through snow and mush to get to class the first 60 degree day of the spring everyone and their brother, mother, dog, 6th cousin 8 times removed, is going to out and about in their shortest shorts and their tinniest tank tops.
I guess clothing really depends on the season since in the fall 60 means dress like the next snow storm is hitting and in the spring it means dress like you just hit Florida for spring break.
Tell me, when was the last time you dressed for the season instead of the weather and ended up either overheating or freezing your butt off (which if your shorts were short enough your probably could have done)?
Until Next Time
XOXO
