Ankle Socks. A Summer Staple!
Features | Katy Smail | June 26, 2008
Footwear, legwear and general leg exposure is always a bit of a tricky area when the sun bestows it’s gentle rays on pins as white as mine are. All sunkissed summer looks feel about a million miles away from appropriate for a little Scottish girl.
Anyway, with a dominating addiction to layering, a combination so simple as bare legs/ sandals/ skirt just, well bores me. Thank goodness, then for Zac Posen’s resort collection reminding me of my favourite summer ankle wear - little girl white socks and pretty, pretty shoes. The kind with little frills or crochet look best and are best teamed with paintbox shoes and scruffy layering (try to avoid looking too ‘Gossip Girl” pristine and co-ordinated. You want to look like you might suddenly be inclined to scrabble up a tree….)
Let me count the ways in which I love this combination:
1. They make your most ridiculously pretty shoes look all fresh and summery
2. They remind me of summer schooldays, making daisy chains in long grass
3. You can buy actual little girl socks from department stores and finally appreciate summer for all the pretty joy it can bring.

The socks paired with shoes definitely reminds me of my sister when she was small. She despised wearing socks with dress shoes since she felt it made her look too young! But for some odd reason Posen makes it work here. The white backdrop the socks provide really make the details of the shoes pop!
only zac posen could pull this off..! i’m not sure if i’m a fan yet or not. did you see the burberry collection? they did the black socks and i did NOT like that. especially for summer!
Yeah…I saw the collection. Socks with dress shoes is really give or take. I can see the functionality behind it for the winter seasons if you just despise Ugg’s or don’t fancy leather boots. Personally, I like the quirkiness of it all.
I just watched Sex and the City for the first time (yeah, I know)and I recall Carrie wearing black socks with her shoes in one of the early scenes in the film when she told Samantha her and Big were getting married. It worked in my eyes, but that’s me!

How ’bout who cares?
If I met a bitch dressed like that in central park I’d call the cops thinking she’d lost her mommy.
