I know you've seen the news and heard all the talk about how this has been the warmest Winter ever. The lack of snow has the weather people all confused.
After a week or so of Spring-like temps, we are freezing our buns off again.
Can I tell you what baffles me? Plenty. But when the sun peeps out and the thermometer rises to around 60ish, the thing that baffles me the most is the choices of clothing I see.
I am not joking when I say it was 64 degrees, and I saw people dressed like they just came from the pool. The last time I checked... it was February.
I know the Spring and Fall seasons are tough months for clothing choices, but it is still February.
In fairness I don't know anyone who has an entire wardrobe of "transitional" clothes? I sure don't.
But, when the weather is warm for a Winter day, what's wrong with lighter-weight clothes? Or thinner layers? Can we just take OFF the sweaters?
Why do the spaghetti straps and shortie shorts have to come out now?
I want to ask them what they wear in the mornings when it's still in the 40's.
I also want to ask them what they will wear when it's 103.
I know I have mentioned this before, but there are lines being crossed that I cannot understand.
Last week, I noticed a dad in the school pick-up line who was sporting a tank top.
Yep... I said a DAD. All his chest and underarm hair was poking out, and it was unpleasant.
Who told him he looked good in that? Does the man not own a shirt with sleeves?
Now before you athletic type folks jump on me, I will say there was nothing about him or his tank that screamed,
"I've just been exercising."
Maybe he had been in the gym. Maybe I am just being mean.
Maybe I need to find something else to worry about than how other people are dressed inappropriately for the weather.
If that groundhog is gonna pop out and declare to us when Spring will arrive, then he needs to pop out some fashion advice, too.
