1. Winter Fashion Trends: Socks

2. The winter season brings out a lot of fashion
trends such as layering, big colorful coats, and
infinity scarves; but you would probably never
think that one of the biggest winter fashion
statements and trends is socks. Socks are very
popular this year and will continue to be during
the winter months. There's nothing better than
being fashionable while keeping warm. Here are
a couple of styles and ways you can wear socks
this winter season:

3. Over-the-Knee Socks
Over-the-knee socks are definitely in this season. They have
always been there but not quite as popular as they are
becoming nationwide. If you have never tried this look now is
the time to gain the courage and see why it's such a popular
trend these days.
Knee high socks go great with boots, heels and even sneakers -
depending on the outfit. Several types of dresses paired with
knee-highs can make for the perfect outfit. For extra warmth,
wear the socks over tights. Staying comfy with just a little
thigh showing is enough to be sexy, but cute and classy all in
one. You can find over-the-knee socks almost everywhere
with several options to choose from like retail, designer, shoe
stores, and more.

4. For a boho-chic, comfy, sexy, but urban look opt for knitted ones
in grey, black, nudes, or browns. They go with anything and
compliment every single outfit: shorts & silky tops or slouchy
sweaters, skirts and sophisticated blouses or cardigans worn
with a belt, knitted dresses or long sweaters. For more of a
holiday party look you can go for black over-the-knee socks or
embellished ones with a black dress.

5. Socks with Heels
Socks with heels are the perfect winter trend for 2014. These
comfy sexy, fun, playful feet cover-ups offer infinite styling
options. Polka dots, stripes, suspender, skeleton & bones
mock socks, sheer, black, striped, white, lace, plus so many
more! Socks do look fantastic with heeled shoes, chunky thick
ones, stilettos, court shoes, sandals, peep toe, pumps.
This certainly isn't a combo for the faint of heart; it takes a
certain kind of gusto and quirkiness to pull it off. If you're the
type who wears patent black pumps every day to work, then
this is probably not the look for you. But if you're feeling
adventurous and particularly stylish, then you should definitely
pull of socks with heels once the temperatures drop.

6. Exposed Boot Socks
Take note: boot socks are major this year. The big trend this
year is pairing knee-high or over-the-knee socks with long
boots that hit below or just over the knee. You want a good
inch or two of sock above the boot. Throw in the mix textured
socks in grey, creams and generally neutral colors, with the
occasional bright color.
Exposed socks look great and are super warm over skinny jeans
or tights, and by all means play it neutral; however the key to
this look in 2013 is to work colored socks with dark jeans OR
brightly colored jeans or tights with neutral socks. For a really
fun and on trend look wear boots and socks with a dress or
skirt, either with bare thighs or opaque or patterned stockings.
it's just about how you match the colors, textures and cuts of
your dress, socks and boots.
