Sock of the Month Subscriptions: The 5 Best Ways to Style Fun Socks with Any Outfit
sock of the month Subscriptions: The 5 Best Ways to Style Fun Socks with Any Outfit
Sock subscriptions are the perfect way to get fun, trendy socks on a regular basis without having to commit to buying them yourself. They’re also great gifts if you want to share your own love of stylish socks with your friends and family! Here are the five best ways to style fun socks with any outfit.
1) Don’t Overdo it
It’s easy to get overwhelmed by sock options, but that doesn’t mean you need an entirely new pair for every outfit you wear. There are plenty of great ways to wear fun socks. For example, all of us here at Philosockphy wear black dress socks nearly every day and that means we have several fun pairs for a lot of occasions! When dressing casually, look for bright colors or designs that have meaning or sentiment behind them and then use them as conversation starters. You can even wear a fun design on its own—just make sure it isn’t obnoxiously distracting.
2) Mix & Match Colors
Mixing and matching color socks is an easy way to liven up a simple outfit, so there’s no shame in keeping more than one pair of fun socks in your closet. At some point or another, you’ve probably been told that it’s best to keep a limited wardrobe by experts like Steve Jobs (who famously wore only one shirt). However, our more casual lives don’t always lend themselves to such strict rules when it comes fashion. While we agree that only owning a few well-made suits makes sense for business meetings and interviews, wearing one pair of brown pants doesn’t call for matching hosiery.
3) Skip the Rules and Wear Them with Sneakers
I believe socks are for everyone. When I was younger, I would see men and women (of all ages) wearing socks, but it wasn’t until last year that I started. There’s nothing formal about them. Some of my favorites are black/navy solids and monochromatic tones like blues and greens. With all those colors, though, you need a way to incorporate them into your wardrobe! This month we’re showcasing a sock subscription service called Philosockphy (love it!). They offer two different types of subscriptions.
4) Add an Extra Accent
We love socks, and we know our readers do too. If you’re looking for a great gift idea, or even something fun for yourself, sock of the month clubs might be just what you’re looking for. But there are so many options! This guide walks through five companies that offer sock subscriptions, as well as discussing why it’s such a popular trend and reviewing some of our favorite pairs from each company. Read on to learn about all your options, and make sure you pick one (or more) that best fits your personality!
5) Try a Little Bit Glam
A fun trend in fashion right now is socks! We know what you’re thinking – how can a little bit of cotton protect my feet from big, bad toes? However, socks are so much more than just a way to keep your feet warm. It’s one of those things that if you start to embrace it, you’ll wonder why you didn’t start sooner. So whether you need some new socks or already have several sock drawers full of them, it’s time to put your socked feet forward and embrace sock style in all its glory. To get you started on your sock-style journey, here are five easy ways that anyone can style fun socks with any outfit!
