Cool socks for summer
Long avoided at all costs, women’s socks have emerged as a dominant fashion trend for 2010, meaning style-savvy women out on the street may be trading in their winter tights for cool summer socks to show off their legs and enjoy the added comfort.
Drifting in and out of style for decades, women’s socks rocked the 1950s with designs such as ‘bobby socks’, which briefly enjoyed a new lease of life thanks to the trend-setting Sex and the City, while long socks were also a feature of 80s style, which is once again making its presence felt in many areas of fashion. It even seems like previously unpopular combinations such as the much maligned sock and sandal are making a comeback as a leading choice for women’s style this summer.
With catwalk models and fashionistas leading the way with stylish socks poking out over their shoes, sock-lovers everywhere can rejoice that their secret passion can now come out into the open. Even women who aren’t so happy with some areas of their legs can help disguise thick ankles with darker coloured socks, and women can also breathe a sigh of relief when slipping into new shoes thanks to the added protection, meaning they won’t be as likely to get blisters.
Socks are a practical style choice suited to all occasions, from the office to the sports field, and are also a top choice for relaxing around the home. The approach of summer can mean more than just favouring thinner socks to keep your feet cooler; it’s also a chance to make socks work for your image, displaying your legs with confidence.
Women who like to make an impression will find themselves blessed with the number of bright and funky designs available, including toe socks and rainbow stripe designs to complement the perfect retro outfit. However, socks are similarly ideal for work wear, whether they’re a purely practical item hidden beneath long trousers or confident ankle socks complementing a work skirt.
With a wide selection of womens socks to choose from, including short and long designs in all styles, colours and materials, you can choose whether to go for the schoolgirl look or knee-high socks as a tights alternative. You should also pay particular attention to socks when choosing the right shoes and skirt for your image, as distinctive socks can serve to make or break even the trendiest look.
