Frilly Socks For Fall

Another way to have fun with your wardrobe this season.

Frilly Socks For Fall
Kim Logee

Well, friends, this week the topic is frilly socks.

It's the first week it's been barely cool enough to wear my new frilly socks (and also sweaters, which I probably shouldn't have worn yet, but I wore them anyway and suffered for the sake of coziness). In case the world has not already aligned to convince you that frilly socks are the best, allow me to do so for you now! As I've said before, autumn is the season for detail and texture, chunky knits, intricate embroidery, and funky patterns. Frilly socks fit perfectly into the autumn-fashion-category and are my go-to socks for fall.

Here I've put together some tips for wearing frilly socks.


The most important thing to remember when donning frilly socks is controlling their exuberant girly-ness. Of course, girly clothes are super fun! But I try to avoid outfits that fit too easily into a single category (like "girly"), in order to avoid feeling like I'm wearing a costume.

In this case, paring them with leather lace-up heels and black mom jeans felt just about right to me. It provides a great opportunity to transition summer heels to the colder weather, and the heavy denim felt like it balanced the lacy socks.


As pictured here, there's something perfect about the combination of oxfords and frilly socks. Add to that some ridiculously chill boyfriend jeans, and you have an awesome outfit! In this case, because there was so much detail in everything else I was wearing, I chose a long, simple, dark blue sweater for a top.

Now, with all this knowledge in mind, I encourage you to try some frilly socks yourself! They make almost any outfit feel fun and artsy. Embrace the frilly sock life!

What is "talking?" How does one "talk?"

Now that it seems “talking” is the new way to date, and will stay that way until another idiotic term is used to describe the people who can’t settle down and just date someone, I feel as if it’s time to go over the unwritten rules of “talking.”

Rule 1. Having feeling without feeling.

What's up Asshat,

I've composed a list of things that I wish upon you, and they're harsh and cruel. These things are things that I wouldn't wish upon my worst of enemies, not even that Starbuck's barista who always screws up my order, not even him. You fall into a whole other category of hate. You surpass Starbucks barista. Congratulations, I'm actually a pretty nice person, making you worthy of every single bit of torture I wish upon you. What are these things I wish upon you you might ask?
