RUN FOR YOUR SCARVES!

Although it's 95 degrees in Los Angeles on this Ocotber day, the forecast for the rest of the week calls for temperatures in the low 70s...You realize of course what this means. It means that Angelino women (Angelinas?) will be running for their closets to break out their winter scarves!

I picture the women of Los Angeles living in a large firehouse of sorts and when the temperature drops even a half a degree lower than 76, a loud, blaring scarf alarm sounds, prompting the residents to scamper for their scarves as quickly as possible, some even sliding down poles in order to get to their nearest Starbucks or outdoor mall with scarf in tow.

Seriously, there is absolutely no need to wear a scarf in L.A. and certainly not in October. On the coldest, stormiest, windiest day in January, I might be able to make an exception, but any other time is clearly needless acessorizing for the sake of fashion. It's like when you see guys wearing beanies in the middle of the day in July, no matter how good it looks, it's still ridiculous.

These women need to be stopped. One of these days, I'm gonna snap and just yank one of these damn scarves.

If you do that, please take pictures. It would rule. People in NYC overreact to weather as well. First day it's below 60? Full on goosedown coats. Then in reverse, after winter, the first day it's above 50? Flip flops and shorts. So odd man...so truly odd.
