You won’t find me wearing the most out there hot off the runway looks to class, but I can definitely appreciate style. Don’t worry my dresser is not full of crazy outfits and my friends frequent my closet. I’m no fashionista, just Fashionably Competent, dishing out what people are really thinking since 2012.
So I’ve made it clear I’m no fashionista, but anyone with eyes could figure out that the list I’ve concocted of horrors seen walking around campus are not acceptable in a learning environment, or any environment for that matter. Note: I’m not making this stuff up. These are things that have ACTUALLY been seen at UGA. Learn from these people’s mistakes and don’t wear this to class or anywhere, ever.
1. Your/Your boyfriend’s boxers: Shacker alert. Never is it EVER okay to wear boxers to class. It does not matter if they have the words naughty strewn all over them or are your very own Victoria’s Secret boxers. . Not only do you look too lazy to throw on a pair of sweatpants, you are just asking for people to stare and snicker when you walk by. If for some reason you do not have access to another pair of pants, skip the class you were planning attending in this ensemble. Nothing is too important to lower your standards to wearing underwear to class.
2. No Shoes: This trend is becoming increasingly popular. I know we go to a beautiful school, but our streets are not made out of butterflies and rainbows. They have dirt on them and your bare feat are tracking in this dirt and probably diseases into our buildings. On top of that you have the smell. And don’t forget that you’re distracting other students from learning because they are most likely to be thinking “do not touch me, do not come near me” the entire class. If you want to go to somewhere, where it is acceptable to not where shoes, check out the University of Hawaii or maybe the Occupy Wall Street movement.
3. Crocs: This is a little opposite from the last item on the list, but I think it goes without saying. Unless you are under the age of 5, you have no excuse. Take those hunks of plastic off and invest in some real shoes. If you have to go shoeless and break crime #2 its better than this shameful violation.
4. Lily Pulitzer: Sorry, I know some people obsess over it, but hell I’m in a sorority and it still looks like Greek throw-up to me. I know this may be hard to hear, but this blog is about what people are really thinking, and it’s not called “Let me lie to you and tell you look good wearing that” for a reason.
5. A dinosaur costume: WHY? I no joke saw this on campus one day. Dressing up like Barney is only cool in elementary school, any older than that and you just turn into a pervert.
Welp, now that you have the list you can breathe easy and just focus on the real reason we’re here… passing our freaking classes. You’re welcome.
