HOW TO USE SOCKS
You only need one characteristic to wear colourful and fun socks - Confidence. If you're using socks with flamingos or with hulk hogan holding weights, wear them proudly! Though, it doesn't matter how confident you are, you can't have socks clashing with your outfit, we don't want to look like a fool. Here are some pointers to look out for while you plan your next outfit:
- Easiest thing to do with colourful socks is to aim for a simple match. Meaning, match either your tie or the pocket square. Sometimes you wont make the exact match but let's say your tie is navy blue, use socks that have some navy blue in it. The easiest way to pick a colour you're already wearing and choose socks that have THAT colour in them!
- Is a good idea to have a basic understanding of what colours will match well with your footwear. For instance, if you are wearing brown, earth tones (think green, orange, yellow, etc) look great! Navy? You can opt for jewel tones, and bright hues. Wearing black? Anything goes!
- If you are wearing an outfit with a heavy pattern to it, opt for a bright sock in a solid colour, or a pattern that is bigger.
- If you like to show them off when you sit, try to get shorter pants. No, we're not talking about flood pants but let's say your normally 36 in length then use 34. So when you sit voila : SOCKS!
- Pick socks that speak to your personality. Are you a cyclists? Opt for ones with bikes on them. Really into superhero's? Find ones that have your favourite superhero on them. Match your personality to your socks.
