5 Ways To Wear The Newest Sock Trends

Yes, you read that right, socks have become the hottest accessory. From being a partner-in-crime to your canvas shoes in school to now being an editorial statement in the fashion world, socks have now gotten a major upgrade. This understated accessory got an overhaul on the international runway a few seasons ago. The trend of wearing socks with heels has now expanded to many styles of shoes. A year ago we would have questioned the combo, but we have warmed up to this transitional trend because of the variety of statement socks now available. Here are 5 ways you can pull-off this not-so-basic trends.

1. Colour Block Basics

Try out the colour-blocking trend from head to toe. Team your ripped jeans with a cosy sweatshirt and a crossbody sling. Continue colour-blocking with a warmer shade of socks teamed with contrasting heels. Throw in fish-net stockings as an edgier detail to the outfit.
