<p>I agree with you on the dresses and shorts and intended on wearing them year round. trust me, when its 7 degrees with a windchill of -10, your legs with fall off even with tights. I wear jeans but don’t like wearing them any day, thus the only next option is leggings. I don’t think uggs are the most fashionable items on earth, but when you have to wear snow boots to get to class without getting frostbite or falling on your face by walking on ice in cute heeled boots. </p>
<p>I agree about the legline as well, and when its warm enough I prefer to wear sleeker boots. but in november-february its really not plausible, so you have to go with the next best options.</p>
