Ugh

I've noticed around the Mizzou Campus this month that more and more people are starting to wear Ugg Boots or some sort of knock off brand. I'm a huge believer in Uggs since I came to college - Who really wants to walk around campus in a few inches of snow in anything but Uggs? However, it's still 80 some-odd degrees outside. Uggs are not necessary yet.

That's Grievance #1.

Grievance #2 is even worse.

Not only are girls wearing Uggs in 80 degree weather, but they're offsetting the heat in their boots by wearing the Uggs with miniskirts. So not only do you look like an airhead for wearing boots in summer-time weather, but you look like a moron wearing them with a miniskirt! They contradict each other. You're either cold or hot. Make up your mind.

Since the first day of fall is this Thursday, here are a few tips to wearing Uggs:

1. NEVER wear them with bare legs. Your legs should always be covered when wearing Uggs. How they are covered is a different question...

2. ALWAYS tuck your pants into the Uggs. You just look sloppy when you don't. Plus, who likes getting snow on the bottom of your pants?

3. WHAT to wear with your Uggs...

• Jeans 
• Leggings 
• ONLY if you're wearing a top or a dress (there are acceptable casual winter dresses that can be paired with leggings and Uggs) covers your BUTT! I don't want to see your flabby butt jiggling all over the place when you walk. I don't subject the public to seeing mine so please do us all a favor and cover it up.
• Sweatpants
• ONLY if the sweatpants can be neatly or at least semi-neatly tucked into your Uggs. If you choose to go the Victoria's Secret sweatpants route (the ones that cut off at your calves), then make sure you tuck in the sweatpants just a little. I don't want to see an inch of your skin between your sweats and Uggs. That makes you look only slightly less moronic than wearing them with a miniskirt. Do you really not know how to cover up and keep warm?

If everyone followed these simple rules, the world would be a much happier, and cuter, place.
