Rock Your Socks

I think socks are a neglected accessory. While socks are instrumental in protecting and supporting your feet, they can also be a super-hot fashion item around which you can style your outfit.

Bonnie Rogers is the owner of The Sock Boutique, and after creating a few outfits centered around socks, I turned to her for her fashion expertise and advice. Here’s what she had to say about my sock-styled outfits.

LS: Okay, Bonnie for this outfit, I decided to rock out. On a child, ankle socks are cutesy. But on a woman, ankle socks can be pretty rocking. So, I went for a rebellious, rocker girl look. What do you think?

Bonnie: I absolutely love this look. The colors and style are just perfect for Spring time. You can also wear this look with the Cafe Mid Zone socks to match the boot for a more seamless look.

LS: Good advice. Now, for this look, I was thinking “Gossip Girl” with an edge. Does it work?

Bonnie:This outfit looks fun! It would also look great with some simple black tights on cooler days.

LS: Cool. Maybe I got a handle on this sock-thing. Now, I’m a little scared to do this one, but what do you think of my personal look? These socks are straight out of your boutique. I completely styled my outfit around them. Did I do good?

Bonnie: Gorgeous sleek and sexy look! These are actually some of my favorite socks period. They are called High Zone by Ozone and I am adore the smooth cuff less look on these. They go with almost everything and are also great boot socks too. (Love that belt!)

Thanks for your sock and fashion wisdom, Bonnie! Turns out socks are just another way to spice up your outfit. So experiment, have fun and be creative.
