I don't want to be a Debbie Downer, but Christmas was objectively more fun as a kid than it is as an adult. More presents to open, fewer presents to buy,SANTA.
But—for me, at least—there was one gift that could turn my smile into a scowl: Socks. How boring, right?
Cut to a decade (fine...two decades) later and Ilovea funky pair of socks. The brand that changed my mind about this sartorial staple?Happy Socks.
Peeking out from beneath a pair of cropped pants or scrunched around the ankles with a swingy minidress, Happy Socks are an extremely low-lift way to spice up an otherwise plain ensemble.
My favorites from the very robust sale section includethis pair with smiley hearts(我会穿和我Converse x Commes de Garcon Play high tops),this vintage-inspired pairwith lightning bolts (which I'll wear with my favoriteLou & Grey joggers) and thesefast food-themed sport socks(我会穿和我Adidas NMDs). Prices range from $14 for a single pair to $6 for kids socks to $48 for 4-pair gift box sets.
They're also excellent gifts, whether for your Rolling Stones-obsessed dad, yourcaffeine-addicted sister或者你的doughnut-loving niece.
Merry Sockmas, folks.
