I need some help with YLF-definitions

Kari

Over the last few weeks a couple new terms have cropped up that I need help understanding. Could you please enlighten me?

UWP - I know this means Urban Warrior Princess, but I don't understand what that means.
Lemming - seems to have something to do with tall boots?

Please help! This is what I get for not keeping up with the flow of new forum terminology.

Urban Warrior Princess is look that is personified by All Saints. Favorite style of Una and Rae.
Lemming sprung from the this post by ironkurtin, where everyone is wearing skinnies, tall boots, and various tops

I been on the forum a lot since last Tuesday due to unrelenting infection crud that I finally got antibiotics for today.

I just want to point out I did NOT spawn the word lemming. Any so-called lemming has self-selected herself for the term.

Sorry IK. It's funny my last two outfits I've have purposefully not been lemming-like. But I see nothing wrong with the look.

Thank you, Anna! Totally what I needed. Cecilia and I were trying to figure out what it meant to be a lemming this evening and I decided I'd start a thread to have someone point me in the right direction.

It's funny -- today while getting ready to go out for lunch with Kari, I found myself wondering if I was a lemming when I tucked my skinnies into *short* boots and added my moto jacket...but wondering in amused way. I personally don't care whether I'm part of the herd or not.

I don't think so, but if you are a lemming, Michelle, I'll happily be one with you. You look SO fantastic in your new tunic!

Glad to know that I wasn't the only one wondering, Debbie!

Michelle raises a good point--are shorter boots also lemming style? I think not. That hasn't caught on as strongly. Ladies?

Kari, I am glad that you posted this - as I had the exact same questions myself. I had been away from the forums for a few days, so I was certain that I had missed something vitally important.
