saw your tweet. wow... i have no words. @cguisada
The mass amounts of girls wearing Nike shorts and t-shirts paired with boat shoes or Uggs helps us get this reputation, but I don't think it is warranted. I think Austin has such a unique style, and while I do wish people would dress up more often, I love the laid-back vibe we have.
Gah! Back when I was a UT student I could not wrap my head around the swarms of sorority girls with their nike shorts, sperrys and frat party T shirts. It was just...no.
Sydney, I also love Austin's unique style. This blog post was really just to make fun of GQ and ourselves a little bit. I really don't think Austin should have made that list at all.
Don't forget the heat! It's hard to be a stylish city when layering is impossible.
don't forget those gross bare foot running shoes with the toes! i see people walking around in them while shopping
@Ashely, I actually don't think the heat should be an excuse. Yes, layering makes fashion fun. But, you can be just as stylish with a simple dress or shorts and top. I think it's a good excuse to have statement making accessories.
@Nikki, gross! A friend of mine wore those on 6th St. once. Worst idea EVER.
I would definitely blame the Greek set for many of these fashion felonies... UGGs should not be worn, period. Especially when it's 107 degrees.
Wearing Nike running shorts outside of the gym or your own home top my list. Uggs and Sperry boat shoes are up there too. The Greeks are responsible for most of Austin's bad fashion.
