Something I never imagined I would see.

What do you think?

Cloggs and lacey socks for an adult woman - words fail me.

Eugh!

What the hell?

Or with ballet pumps and mum jeans.

Obviously a versatile hosiery choice.

omg! awful. I saw a blog with a woman wearing converse and frilly socks with a leather mini, not a good look for anyone, least of all a grown woman. A 7 year old maybe!

'Like to golf? Put a pair of white lace socks on the next time you golf to accent those boring golf shoes.'

I didn't get as far as the golf bit. I assumed that women wore then to match their preschool DDs.

the pointy bits would trail on the ground and get dirty

Tiger - since when was S&B hinder by practicality?

True

So you going to buy a pair then? Only ELEVEN POUNDS and whatever pence a pair.

Go on go on go on go on

MrsCakes,
Were you searching for lace topped stockings to find those beauties or what
:)

Eurgh. They look so wrong.

Juneau - it was innocent, honestly.
I was looking for some boot socks for DD (definitely no lace) when Google Shopping suggested I might like them.

Tiger - tempting though it is to be a trendsetter (perhaps they could become the new way of spotting MNers in the school playground), I think I can resist. .

They look bloody stupid. I can imagine a grown woman skipping about in them -to the embarrassment of her kids and the smirks of the school gate mafia!!!

Those socks are the work of the devil. Who knew Doily cloths were so versatile .

Actually, I just clicked with who would wear these.
That Duggar mum. The one with all the children.
Michelle Duggar is it?

Some of the long socks were nice - I've just ordered two bracelet watches and a black scarf!

They are fugly. Truly hideous. But surely no self respecting grown woman would wear these. Only children can get away with frilly socks.

WTAF?????

My DD (16) would buy them and dye them black, so would some of her friends, they follow Victoriana Goth style, though.

Other than that, they are for children.

But my friend (who is 20) would love them, and probably look amazing in them too.

Birds, you can buy black ones too if you look there.

Christmas stocking (pun!) filler?!

It's a thing, saw two twenty something's wearing them at the airport this weekend. They had Converse hi tops and lace topped socks poking above.

I can sort of imagine someone wearing them in a sort of steampunk way with higher boots.

I am very glad not to be 20 something.

I actually saw someone wearing this the other day - they were 20s but doesn't make it alright.

It's only ok on the 5 and unders...
