Ugh for Uggs
It's the first snowfall and the night before our town got about a foot of snow. Everyone comes stompin into the school, brushing snow off theeir boots. As my homeroom walks into the room and sets their boots outside the door, I see the usual wave of suede boots. Dark brown, tan, gray, black, and white. Then there's me. I pull off my purple plaid boots and slip into my school boots.
I don't have anything against you if you wear Uggs or Emus or copies, I just prefer standing out a little bit. Why do we all have to look the same? I even refuse to wear brand-name clothing. Why should I be a walking billboard for Hollister if I can wear a T-shirt for my favorite band or that new shirt that I got on vacation. Nothing against brand-name wearers, because if you like Uggs and think they look cool, go for it. If you just want to stick with the trend... that's different. I just want people to not be afraid to step outside the box. Even if it's just a pair of boots.
