Schoolgirl Socks
As winter finally hits IU’s campus, it is always interesting to see how all of us girls try to stay warm while still looking good. Some choose to just bear the cold and go out in basically nothing, while others find something stylish to do the job. Just a side note- I remember trying the basically no clothes method. While at the time you think you look good- you really just look dumb. But, back to the trendy solution. Tights are always a great go-to for the dress wearing nights. But, more recently the knee-high socks have begun to creep up on campus. While, some of you may be confused- no, IU did not become a private school. It’s just a trend. Knee-highs are a great replacement for a night when tights just don’t feel right. The best part about socks is that they are versatile. You can make your outfit fit your personality- sporty, schoolgirl, conservative or sexy. Personally, I like to wear over the knee socks. They are the perfect addition to a long sweater and tights ensemble. Yes, double the warmth. I told you, I grew out of my no clothes phase. You can pick a pair that will add some color or accent to your outfit. But- my favorite go-to is the all-black look. A pair of black ribbed or patterned socks can really spruce up your all-black outfit. For all the shorties out there. Don’t be afraid to try the over the knee look. I was hesitant at first- but like I said, the socks are versatile. Meant for all girls, with all different wardrobes and all different leg lengths. So this winter, cover up, at least to your knees.
