WHAT SOCKS TO WEAR WHEN
A guide to knock your socks ON
From the first day of school to the last day at work, socks play an integral part of life. Maybe that is a little far-fetched but there’s no denying that socks care for our feet like nothing else. Considering all the injustice they undergo: from being misplaced to wearing them wrong, it seems like they deserve some love! So, here’s a quick guide to understand and style your socks the right way! Read on to keep your feet fabulous.
Come rain or shine
While summer ensures every photon of sunlight burns your skin, winter promises to freeze you inside out. With the weather changing constantly, the care your feet needs also changes! Beat the heat with pretty prints or pastel solids but make sure that the fabric is always cotton, to keep your feet far from sweat. For cold days, get a pair of woolen thermal socks that prevent cracks on your feet. And when you wear your gumboots to tackle those rainy days, use knee-length waterproof socks.
Sock for every Shoe
Cinderella is proof that a pair of good shoes can change your life! But good shoes need a good pair of socks too. Here’s what to wear with different shoes: with loafers in trend, make sure you own a pair of loafer socks, or no-show socks that cover your feet but stay hidden. For your next meeting, pair your formals with plain dark shades or subtle prints. You could also buy a pair of flexible hiking socks for weekend trekking getaways. With them inside your sports shoes, walking will feel like flying!
The Material of Choice
Most of us prefer plain cotton socks that do their job. But socks come in myriad materials that meet various functionalities. While cotton socks are known for their durability, cashmere, or bamboo socks lend a premium feel to your feet. Further, angora, elastane, or spandex promise utmost comfort. And finally, for enhanced flexibility, befriend elastic, rubber, or nylon socks.
Style in Socks
Originating way back in 300 AD, socks have fought hard to stay fashionable! This year, they made quite a show by being under the right feet — be it with Kendall Jenner’s sheer socks or through Maisie William’s knee-high socks. Quite clearly, colored sheer socks seem to be a must-have this year. But you can experiment with lace too, like Mandy Moore. Perhaps even go a step further with funky prints like Dwayne Wade. It doesn’t take a fashion guru to know that socks are here to stay!
Socks aren’t just another garment to wear over your feet. They help in ways most people don’t even know — preventing smelly feet, easing blood circulation, and even helping you sleep better at night. So, while you’re picking the prettiest socks out of the lot, be sure to give due importance to comfort too.
