CURIOUSER NEW YORK

No, no, no - the winter is not yet over, unlinke some people would have hoped.  Even despite the changes in the temperature, when every New Yorker gets confused for a day or two - changing from parkas and wool coats to leather jackets and booties - the freezing cold is back - and it almost always happens on the same day. No wonder, the local pharmacies have been looking much 'fuller' than they did in the Fall - there are just a lot of unpredictable weather changes that send even the most prepared stylish people into the hurricane of frustration over the fact that as a good a Samaritan fashion-conscious person you are, most likely you've dry-cleaned and packed way far away your stylish Fall clothes till the Spring and rolled out the whole Winter wardrobe to your disposal...

The sliders were right on hand, the park's slopes were all ready for the fun crowd... I couldn't miss it as well, so I took my camera out on the city - I had to be a part of this fun!

It all started in Los Angeles - the whole trend with the Uggs, which, in a way, does not make any sense, because it does not go below 75F in LA anyway, so why would you 'torture' yourself and wear furry beasts - a.k.a.
