I will tolerate visible socks if they match my boots, which is usually pretty easy with black -- they just blend in and don't stand out. Sometimes high shafted booties rub uncomfortably on my shins without socks underneath. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/need-input-on-my-sock-question#post-1631982 Sat, 19 Mar 2016 13:34:44 +0000 Anonymous 1631982@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I'm like Angie and wear sheer, skin-tone knee highs. However, on Monday I'll be wearing full on-display crazy socks for World Down Syndrome day. So if you want an excuse for showing some sock, there it is </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/need-input-on-my-sock-question#post-1631867 Sat, 19 Mar 2016 03:47:43 +0000 rabbit 1631867@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I wear black athletic socks that are cut low, just about an inch or half inch above the foot, then they fit invisibly under my booties. &nbsp;If I'm extra cold I'll put nude knee-high hose under that. &nbsp; I'm team no show.</p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/need-input-on-my-sock-question#post-1631776 Sat, 19 Mar 2016 00:27:41 +0000 Aziraphale 1631776@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I usually hide mine (by folding them down once), but if it's a bit chilly I'm not as fussed about it as the other ladies. I avoid nude knee-highs because I prefer socks to nylons and I don't like the way the nylons feel between my pants and shins. And they go all the way up to your knees! If you have colourful socks, they look cute when they show. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/need-input-on-my-sock-question#post-1631772 Sat, 19 Mar 2016 00:21:31 +0000 BJ 1631772@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I am in the hidden camp. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/need-input-on-my-sock-question#post-1631455 Fri, 18 Mar 2016 16:44:11 +0000 Gail 1631455@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>IMHO they must be hidden :)</p> <p> </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/need-input-on-my-sock-question#post-1631450 Fri, 18 Mar 2016 16:41:39 +0000 Anonymous 1631450@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Another vote for hiding </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/need-input-on-my-sock-question#post-1631393 Fri, 18 Mar 2016 15:41:09 +0000 Suz 1631393@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I like no show socks (if the bootie is high enough and the crop low enough, this is possible except when sitting) OR nude hose....OR a colourful fun sock peeking out with the right outfit. One problem I encounter is that sometimes my pants will stick to the socks, so the socks show, willy-nilly. I have one pair of booties high enough to cover all issues -- they are great.&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/need-input-on-my-sock-question#post-1631336 Fri, 18 Mar 2016 14:36:38 +0000 Angie 1631336@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I wear nude knee-highs ALL THE TIME, to make-believe bare legs. &nbsp;I don't like the look of visible socks for my own style because it looks less dressy and professional. No-show socks can work, but then my chins get cold.&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/need-input-on-my-sock-question#post-1631287 Fri, 18 Mar 2016 13:23:35 +0000 April 1631287@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Two votes in favor of no-show socks. &nbsp;That was the direction I had chosen, just wasn't sure if it was quite the thing.</p> <p>But if Tanya and Sara L think so, enough said. &nbsp;:) &nbsp;Thank you, ladies! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/need-input-on-my-sock-question#post-1631281 Fri, 18 Mar 2016 13:16:49 +0000 Sara L. 1631281@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I try to hide my socks with rolled jeans and booties.&nbsp; I wear footie socks with the booties that can't be seen. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/need-input-on-my-sock-question#post-1631274 Fri, 18 Mar 2016 13:08:01 +0000 Tanya 1631274@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I think that they should be hiding completely, which is something I find difficult to achieve quite often.&nbsp; I usually wear double nude knee highs in those situations for warmth. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/need-input-on-my-sock-question#post-1631273 Fri, 18 Mar 2016 13:05:42 +0000 April 1631273@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Asked this on the blog post today but with the East/West time difference, I realize Angie may not see it until I've already left the house, so I'm turning to the wise women of the forum for input.</p> <p>I am wearing today's ensemble with rolled girlfriend jeans and booties, but what should my socks be doing? &nbsp;Hiding completely, peeking out, or what? </p>
