In the beginning I was highly, highly against this - as for years we have laughed at people like Alicia Silverstones' character in Clueless, with her silly high socks.
So lets take Socks and heels . . .
Burberry is doing it
Dior is doing it
Dolce and Gabanna are doing it, built in style
and now Vuitton got it going too.
I love the idea, but I don't know how well I could pull it off . . .
not a good quality picture, but look, even Manga has it going on!
Primark love :)
Cherry Blossoms
I can't wait to get my hands one a pair or three . . . So excited, I can barely sleep at night :)

ReplyDeleteughh.. I just can't make myself like the socks and heels thing..it's been my bugbear since I was in KIndy!!!!!! But.. I do love the floral shoes that are out at the moment!! Plan to go and get myself a pair this week! Saw a pair of cute flats with satin fabric with roses.. ahh.. too pretty! must have!
ReplyDeleteNICE topic jen!
ReplyDeleteI think it can look quite vintage myself, although not a huge fan.
Floral and brown leather wedges are a MUST for summer!!
This is a debatable topic, i would probably never walk out the house like that but it could look cute with Lacey socks:)
ReplyDeleteThanks for the sweet comment on my blog!!

Hi! Just found your blog and I love your topics! I hope to see lots of your design projects here. :)
ReplyDeleteAlso, this trend...meh? Part of me can dig it as a throw part to the 30s and 40s, the other part of me pictures tourists with cankles + birkenstocks + socks = blerg. It seems to work with sweet little vintage strappy shoes as long as they are not paired with hot pants.
Vanessa and Meghan, your blogs are so lovely :)
ReplyDeleteI love this, for photographic purposes, though I have tried to pull it off myself, but really, Cape Town isn't ready for this Avent Guarde trend quite yet :)
Does remind me sooo much of those sterotypical Germans/Afrikaners with the long socks and velt skoene, or even worse, sandals on a man

Heels and socks is growing on me :)
ReplyDeleteI am 50 and I came over from GreenBeanStudio!
ReplyDeleteWhen I was in my early 20's we wore socks with the shoes. So it looks like the style has come back!!
I love this trend, as you can see from my blog! I hope I'm doin' it right, haha!
ReplyDeleteheels become more comfortable and do not cut my feet as they do to bare foot. Like it.
