Yup, I'm guilty. Just the other day, as the temperature climbed, I actually
removed my hoodie and tied it around my hips because it was too hot to wear
it and I didn't feel like leaving it to fend for itself.

Cool. But rather. Warm.
Golly Skippy. If "that" makes you want to puke you might
wish to hold off on all things baby for the foreseeable future...

If people want to think I think I'm or I think I'm cool, that's fine with
me. I assume I don't have much control over what people think of me anyway,
lol.
Today I was having lunch in a nice neighborhood and some French–speaking
women had their sunglasses on their head like a headband. And were wearing
little makeup. Casually elegant, n'est–ce pas, or fashion faux pas? I have
no clue.

"I'm cool and I wear my sweater around my waist or hips" ones, that

I've seen the guys that push the sunglasses up to balance on their
foreheads, over their eyebrows. Not sure how they're able to balance
them there––I guess their brows are more prominent than my own––but I
think it looks goofy.

As I've said before when we've had this thread (it's a topic that seems
to come up every now and then) – sometimes it's not a fashion statement
(or a "I'm so rich" statement or an "I'm so cool" statement, for that
matter... why would a sweater around ones shoulders or waist make one
look rich or cool, anyway?). Sometimes, in fact I'd venture to say
*most* of the time, it's just a way to carry a sweater and keep your
hands free.
Example: My husband and I took our dog out for a nice Sunday morning
walk the other day. Most San Francisco mornings this time of year can
be a little chilly, so I had a black, zip front hooded cotton sweater
over my outfit. But it was uncharacteristically warm Sunday, and about
halfway through the walk I had to remove the sweater. With a dog leash
in one hand and keys in the other it was much easier to tie the sleeves
of the sweater around my waist for the remainder of the walk. It's
utilitarian.
Now, I'm not indigent or anything, and I do happen to be quite cool,
indeed, but I wasn't trying to convey rich or hip with the sweater
around the waist. I just didn't want to wear or carry it anymore. It
may not be a look you like, but if that's the most "hedious" and
disgusting thing you have to encounter in your life, consider yourself
fortunate.

What if it is (or was) a fashion statement ?...
A few years back I would add a drop of colour to a dull outfit with a
sweater around the neck (or waist, if more casual) – with the added
bonus that I could actually use the sweater if needed.
I haven't done it in a long time (fashion changes ? or changes in my
sense of fashion ?), but I still think it can be done and work well.
