UGGs were not designed just for cold weather. They were actually originally designed for surfers. People in SoCal have long worn them with skirts, pants and skiwear. It's a cultural thing down here. I've had them since high school (that's a LONG time for those who don't want to do the math).

There is a big difference b/w the ponchos worn in the 70s and those that I wear today. First, the yarns that are being imported from France are immeasurably better. Second, they come in way cooler colors. Finally, they are a great way to keep warm when you go out to the movies, to a sporting event or for a walk on the beach. You can throw them over just about anything and have them look cute. My bestfriend made a ribbon ponch to match a bridesmaid's dress she had to wear recently. It was gorgeous!
