Unless you’ve been living under a rock, it is no news that the days of wearing just black and white socks are over. Socks are definitely underrated items in the men’s fashion department as many neglect it. Most men do not realize this but nowadays, with the way socks are designed, they add a unique detail to an outfit. With that being said, they’re capable of taking a really casual look to the next level. It is a refreshing way to personalize your wardrobe.
Graphic socks have made their mark as an essential product for a stylish wardrobe. Originally, socks were not designed to get any attention when incorporated into an outfit but in this day and age with the creativity directed towards vibrant socks, it is certainly safe to say that they generate a well-balanced distinction, and they also emphasize the break in trousers and shoe combinations.
I am aware that styling illustrative socks can be a bit of a hassle sometimes, as most men are very conscious of mixing different prints and patterns, but realistically there are various ways you can make it work. For example, you can match your socks to your shoes, trousers, shirt, or jacket. You can also take a risk by wearing a completely different design that does not coordinate with your outfit at all. After all, it does emphasize your trousers and your shoes. It works for some; it does not work for others. The key to pulling these looks off is to have fun and play with the style, but always pay attention to the function.
Here are three elemental tips for coordinating your socks:
1. If you’re wearing a black suit to a formal event, keep the socks black.
2. If you’re wearing Grey or blue trousers, keep the socks dark blue.
3. If you’re wearing an outfit that carries a certain print or pattern, try contrasting or matching striped socks that compliment those patterns or matches the look.
HAPPY SHOPPING!
