WIW : Minimax!

Deborah

Veteran

Well that's what I'm calling it lol! I think the outfit is quite minimal but the accessorising takes it into maximal territory??

These stocking socks are trending a bit here and I quite like them. I'm planning to try them with Mules I bought for Spring but it's not warm enough yet so tried them with my lace ups.

The 'scarf' is called a Necknot ( http://www.necknots.com/ for anyone interested) and is hand made in Canada! You can tie, twist and style them so many ways...very clever!

Must admit I'm feeling the drama today

Anyone else playing around with these socks??

This is the first I have heard of the stocking socks, but I sure like what I am hearing now. I think I might be interested in them. The necknots are cute. I think it might be a little maximal on me, but you can wear it well.

Wow, your outfit is fantastic, and I am in love with your socks and shoes.

I'm all over the sock look - and have a pair just like yours sitting in my drawer waiting for stocking weather And as for the necknot thingy - very cool! I like it - but I was very distracted by the fingernails on the young woman in the video . Anyways - did you order this from their website ? I think I need one.

Love the outfit - especially the necknot. I bought a pair of those socks (although a slightly smaller mesh) and love them. It's trending here too.

Your outfit is fabulous as always. Love the socks - I'll have to try to find similar ones to try, as I tend to wear similar lace ups and they add a nice fun touch to the look.

You always look amazing. The socks are what sets this outfit apart for me. A great accessory.

Thanks Bridgie! Mostly I prefer a more minimal look but sometimes it just feels right to add a little extra

Thanks Diana! The stocking socks are a good little refresher item.

Lisa, yes just order on line. Nicole is the designer and she is just lovely.

Elle, I've seen quite a few bloggers wearing the socks and it looks quite fresh to my eye xx

Thea do give them a go. Sounds like they would work for you.

Thanks so much Joy! I'm really happy with them x

You look very sharp. May be more maximal than your usual, but it is a totally you look. I enjoy the play of texture and shine.

Great outfit! I like how the scarf and necklace are at the perfect lengths to not interfere with each other. The socks are fun and now I'm intrigued.

Thanks Lyn67, that's why I love YLF, so many great ideas and suggestions for styling.

Thanks Delurked. It's fun to play round a bit

Sara, thanks. I have been obsessing over the socks and was pretty happy when I found some.

Interesting stocking sox Deborah.
I have had them in the past for cropped pants in Winter- they are both warm and stylish!

Love the socks! I have a pair of fishnet socks I've been wearing quite often - they're a smaller mesh but I like the drama of yours.

Love the socks!
Love the scarf! I'm with Lisa, I think I need one. Must support Canadian designers, you know....
And overall, this is a fantastic outfit. You nailed it, yet again.

Thanks Lyn. I couldn't find the socks anywhere until I stumbled across them at Rubi.

Greyscale I also have the small mesh but haven't tried them out yet.

Elizabeth I could see you in a Necknot!! And yes you must support your local designers She has such an amazing range. I'm wearing mine again today and this time I have just created a hectic mess with it over a very simple long black dress
