Welcome to the Sock Hop!

One sock, two sock, red sock, argyle sock! Today we’re going to talk about socks. Yes, I said it, socks; what I believe to be one of the most overlookedIMG_20160315_170449 part of a man’s wardrobe. I’m writing this post because I’ve had several guy friends tell me that they find it hard to really up their style. I believe men find it really difficult to come up with outfits because we tend to have less options than women when it comes to what we can wear on a daily basis. It always ends up being pants, t-shirt, sneakers, over and over again. And, if you work in a field outside of fashion, blogging, or something similar then your outfit choices are even more narrowed. Usually a daily suit, that tends to be brown, navy, or charcoal colored.IMG_20160315_170507

However, I believe that one of the easiest and most overlooked staples of men’s fashion has been socks. We wear them everyday, with any outfit, and yet we don’t tend to care what’s on our feet. Even though people do actually see your socks; when you’re sitting down and your pants ride up that inch or so, when you rest your ankle on your knee, when you wear shorts, and more. I see girls wearing fun socks all the time, with little creatures on them, multicolored socks, even mismatched socks. Men should take note of these options.

Now I’ve worked in very professional environments before; corporations and such, so don’t worry there are socks for you too. In fact, one of my favorite places to buy high quality socks with a kick is Express. They usually have IMG_20160315_170432two for $10 deals going on at the store and their socks come in multiple colors and styles; argyle, polka dots, stripes, and many more. I get complimented all the time for my socks, and they’re extremely easy to slip into any outfit I wear that day, whether it be a suit, business casual, or even just jeans with a t-shirt if I’m going to meet a friend. The next time you take a trip to the mall, or you’re sitting online shopping make sure you check out the men’s sock collection, you might be pleasantly surprised with what you find!
