Knee Sock Dreams


This girl has convinced me that I need a similar pair of grey socks for this fall, to be worn with a black sweaterdress and flats. These will do nicely for cold days, I think, and these will be comfortable on the warmer ones.



The Free People catalogue (which includes about 500 items I adore above all else but could never afford) has convinced me of my need for these exact socks, as well as the fact that they must be worn over simillar tights with my motorcycle boots. Ideally I'd wear 'em with flat granny or combat boots, but if I'm going to be buying $24 socks on a regular basis, new boots are out of the cards.


The adorableness of this Free People picture wasn't lost on me either. Don't the socks and moccasins look cute/cozy? Free People is tempting me for sure, especially with this gloriously beautiful rustic wool coat.

Apparently knee/above-knee socks are on the menu for me this fall. I'm really feeling the fall clothes this year. I'm sick of summer...bring on the colder weather!

I took a look at the catalogue and immediately started coveting some of the items... but then discovered that they don't ship to Europe, dammit. So I guess I have to wait till some of these items hit eBay.

I love the knee socks look as well, http://www.sock-dreams.com/ is the store I'll be heading to for some fall socks (not quite yet though, I'm trying to reign in on my shopping addiction...).

Yeah, I'm coveting pretty much everything Free People showed in that catologue. You can find a lot of their stuff at Urban Outfitters (at least the American UO...I'm not so sure about the European version).
