Fashion Victims
Nov. 15th, 2007 09:54 pmI don't claim to be up on fashion or particularly fashion forward, so can someone please tell me what the deal is with the new trend of wearing wellington boots?
Seriously? What. The. Fuck.
When I was in NYC with my brother I first noticed it, and it seems to be popping up all over the place now. Even with funky patterns, there's something distinctly ugly about wellington boots. And when they're worn when the weather is dry, it looks even more ridiculous. I've questioned the style aspect of wearing Ugg boots with everything, but they're haute fashion compared to wearing rubber wellies with a nice skirt or outfit.
I haven't worn wellies since I was a kid, and I don't intend to unless I move somewhere where it rains a lot or if we have a garden I plan to spend a lot of time mucking about it.
Once again I can just be glad that I'm not a slave to fashion trends...
