Spring has not yet sprung

On Saturday, I was riding my bike in shorts and a tank top; last night, I had to bring the scarf and the gloves back out. Spring has not yet sprung (and I have a cold to show for it). So I thought I'd share a few more winter Shanghai Street Style pics.  

Remember how I mentioned that UGGs (or some form of them) was all the trend, mostly among young women?  Key word: mostly... 

And then there are these:

It's getting warmer!

It was warm and sunny today, and the air quality wasn't so bad; spring is coming! But before it does, I must tell you about a winter trend among the young and old, both males and females (although most prevalent among young females) -- UGGs (or some variation of them) in different colors, different heights, with different embellishments (fringe, fur, sparkles, and other bedazzles). 

A couple of funny things to note:

1. UGGs here are actually called "U-G-Gs," I've been told.  
2. As you can probably imagine, there are a plethora of blatantly fake uggs around these parts. (I call them fuggs.) You can easily spot them by their collapsing ankles, when the structure of the boot simply folds inward due to overuse and being counterfeit.    

These are "GG&UUs". 

Collapsing ankles!

And in case you were wondering, the American trend of UGGs with skimpy shorts or skirts hasn't crossed the Pacific (thankfully).
