So, don't worry about keeping that summer tan girls because long socks are coming back for winter, yey! Absolutely loads of F/W 2010 runways were pounded by models wearing socks of all lengths with their designer heels so you should start to plan for it hitting our legs very soon!
I put together a shortlist of some of my fave socks currently available now, to give us a head start in the style stakes before they get snapped up once the sun goes in :)
The cool US online store 80s Purple has a couple of ridiculously hot styles in their own 'Purple Label' range, check these out. 80s Purple also have REALLY reasonable shipping fees so fill your boots (literally this time).
I LOVE these knee high 'Headdress' socks, so on trend even now so these will take you nicely into autumn! £18.76 from 80s Purple.
Also, love these over the knee 'Tatters' pair, the pattern makes them look torn and laddered for that shabby chic look! £17.42 from 80s Purple.
Trasparenze are taking socks onto a sexier level, so sophisticated but super hot, check them out at www.uktights.com. The Trasparenze Euspira Knee High Sock is just £6.45 from UKTights, but looks much more expensive!
I am also loving their Anachis Over The Knee Socks, maybe not in this orange colour, but they also come in black, white, purple, blue and pink, all £12.95 from UKTights. It's the ruching at the back that I love, it takes the dodgy sexy schoolgirl look down a notch and turns it into a more fashionable look as we saw a lot of ruching on the catwalks for next season.
If you want something a bit girlier, New Look are doing these cutesy grey or cream Floral Knee Highs pictured below for just £3!!
And finally, American Apparel are appealing to our pretty pretty side with their Girly Lace Ankle Sock. At £8 a pair, and available in 7 colours (grey/white pictured), these are so versatile you could wear them with flat masculine brogues or girly dolly shoes!
So there you go, whatever your style there is a sock out there for you. I think I'll be mainly going with knee highs, and 80s Purple will be my first stop!
