Clearly, I need sock diversity. I like the ideas of sheer or (small) fishnet. Thought I had some simple little thin, short socks, and dumped all my socks out to find them. Came up dry. Now I know what to do with my birthday gift certificate from the sock store.
Brooklyn, glad you like it. Casual is def what I’m going for. When I do that outfit lab with the skirt after the cleaners, I’ll have to include some belts.
ETA This conversation is making it clear to me what people mean by “make it look intentional”. If the “school girl, punk rock, rebellious, harajuku elements” just look like a mistake, then I haven’t gotten it quite right. I’m glad to finally understand that idea!
