Another chapter of state-of-the-art fashionable ideas is in the books! Only this time, the chapter is about the unusual pairing of socks with heels. We totally get that you might be cringing at the mere thought of wearing socks with pumps or platforms but hear us out, will you?

For as long as we can remember, the sock-heel combination was a big no-no, a fashionable blasphemy or whatever it is you want to call it. But a change for the better has occurred and we’ve come to see that this season, we should go big or go home with accoutrements that capture the effortless nonchalance seen on the streets.

Yes ladies, the sock-meets-heel mishmash just got ultra-cool! But keep your eyes on its defaults; treat the trend sparingly and you’re golden!

Do pair thin silky socks with classic pumps for a refined allure.

Don’t be afraid to venture into the eclectic trend with some savvy sandals. The more “open” the shoes, the better!

Do go for thick socks when weary chunky heels.

If you’re already an advocate of socks, then do go for embroidered socks, as to add some zest to your style.

Since velvet platforms are a sure thing this season, then do pair them with colorful socks. Our advice? Go for color-blocking!

Don’t add drama to your outfit as the socks are doing the job themselves!

Do let your inner child pop out by picking ruffled socks and matching them with grown-up pumps.

Sock the season away ladies!
