Ugh - what to wear with skirts

I only want to wear trainers but honestly it looks mental on me wearing socks or tights - I just can’t get over myself!

Boots are completely fine in winter, love them. But I need a solution for spring/autumn. Summer I can wear flat sandals.

I feel like I’m a Bobby Soxer or in Grease if I wear them with my usual white socks. I think I’m just too old for that look.

I bought fine short ankle socks in lovely colours, navy with a shimmer, pale gold shimmer, grey etc in Calzedonia in Italy recently & i've worn them with dresses (navy COS ) & navy metallic Hoff trainers & it looked great & i was v comfortable

Trainer liners are ugly & i haven't worn them in years

I've also never worn floral desses & white vejas etc

I'm in my 50s
