Ed. Obsession: Funky socks under $15


 

Check these out, too...

  • Ed. obsession under $20: Primp out your keyboard
  • What he really thinks of your fave summer outfit
  • Tune up your summer concert wardrobe with these picks
It’s about this time of year that I really start to appreciate the versatility of the knee-high sock. Mid-winter usually finds me in a wardrobe rut, and I’m sure I’m not alone. (I think I’ve worn jeans, boots and a sweater nearly every day this week.) So when I’m in need of some serious outfit inspiration, I turn to my sock drawer. 

 

Pull on a thick knit pair over your go-to leggings for a cozy-cool layer of added warmth. Let a printed pair just peek out over the tops of your boots. Scrunch ‘em just-so over your tights and rock some ankle boots. Trust: adding to your sock collection is probably the simplest way to spruce up a cold-weather wardrobe in no time. Perfect for that I-look-awesome-without-even-trying vibe that’s so easy to miss and so hard to nail.

Dear MOD,
I like the Buttoned-Up Knee-High Socks. What is the best way to style them in the spring? Thanks.

 

Hey MadisonRL, they'd look good with shorts and converse or boots. Even the right dress could work. Hope this helps! Xoxo Smile

Play up your frock. Instead of pairing flats or pumps with that summer dress, try adding some edgy boots or sporty sneakers.
