The problem could easily be solved.
People who wear gloves, hats and scarves complain about being cold in the winter. I'm sure there's ways that problem could be solved (ie. wrapping your body from head to toe in fabric underneath all your clothes), but that's not necessarily practical.
Just like it might not be practical for some girls to not wear tights every once in a while. Or maybe some of those girls wearing tights aren't cold at all.

There's simply no reason to wear stilettos, leggings, and a flowy top in the winter.
Right, so you're saying I can and should judge someone as a lazy poor slob just because they always wear sweats?

Don't take it so personally.

The difference is this: those people wearing scarfs, mits, etc are doing everything in their power not to be cold.

The other people are choosing a way to dress and then complaining about something they chose to do. Either stop doing it, or stop the bitching.

you sure bring this up a lot

Some people say "It's not sensible to wear heels and leggings in the winter!", but why not? I've been wearing heels for a loooong time and I have no problem wearing them in the winter. I walk the same on ice with heels as I do with running shoes. And if you buy the proper types of leggings, they are just as warm as any other type of pants.

I dress professionally because that's how I need to dress when I go to school. Plus, I like how I look in those clothes. It's annoying that people feel the need to rip apart others because of how they dress. Making fun of people because of how they dress is so sad.
I'm under the impression that it would be soooo much more difficult when it's slippery out, just because the surface area of your foot decreased so much.

Then again, I can't wear most heels because they break my feet...hence my confusion.
