New look and sweatpant freaks

So as you can see, I have updated the look my blog. I figured it was about time, because frankly I was tired of looking at the same layout and thought you all might be too. I'm always one to try and spice things up.

Now, on to our blog. As I said in my last blog, I came across many interesting and fascinating things during my time away from the Internet, things in which as soon as I saw it, I thought to myself, "I need to blog this". Of course, I am sure many good ones I have forgot (which means maybe I should carry around paper and pen in case anymore good ideas creep up on me). But something I saw yesterday reminded me of one of my main ponderances right now, which is:

Why are people wearing sweatpants, with the legs scrunched up to their knees to make them look like Capri's?

I thought perhaps this girl was strange when I saw this the other day, where, in 90 degree weather, she was wearing a black tank top, and hot pink sweatpants, with the legs scrunched up to her knees. But now I have seen women wearing this same look all over, especially at the Walmart that is around the corner from my house. Yesterday, when it was 102 degrees outside, a woman walked into walked with the most hideous shade of green sweatpants I have ever seen, with the whole leg deal going on.

I suppose this must be some sort of trend now in fashion, although I am not sure. Where I once used to be completely up-to-date on the newest trends, as I get older I realize I don't care as much as long as what I am wearing fits and is comfortable. But what is it that is so exciting about sweatpants, that you feel the need to wear them during the summer? After all, you can go in the Walmart and for $10 pick out a pair on nice capri's or shorts that make much more sense. Can these people not live without their sweatpants that they must wear them year round.

Which brings me another point...sweatpants, on anyone, are not flattering. The are big, bulky, and make everyone look like they have a big, drooping ass. The girl, with the hot pink sweatpants, had a small, petite frame, but in those sweatpants, her ass looked the size of Texas.

My one piece of fashion advice to you ladies out there is, leave the sweatpants in the closet until winter, and then only wear them around the house. Of course, I am one to give advice as I am sitting here in jammy pants with cows and moons on them, but hey, tomato, tomatoe.
