Shrugs are all the rave among teenage girls. These alleged pieces of clothing provide neither warmth nor coverage. It also fails to increase the perception of chest size. The title derives from the action spurred by a girl wearing it. You shrug because you have no idea what it is for.
When I woke up in Spanish class today, I was surrounded on eight sides by girls wearing shrugs. I could only help but shrug.

When you make a thinly veiled attempt at weaving your way out of a situation/meeting someone/fulfiling an obligation. Some people do this more than others, and can develop a reputation for it.
