I’ve taken to wearing fancy socks at the factory, much to the amusement of my factory-mates. These two screen caps illustrate where I got the inspiration, although I do draw the line at camouflage pants with tie-ties at the ankles. I’ll keep to the socks, thanks, and just…um…admire those who wear the camouflage pants with the tie-ties and the pink striped socks at the same time.

camouflage! camouflage pants!!

fashion-conscious and not thick ankled

In all honesty, the socks themselves are not all that fancy; the fanciest pair is indeed a pair of pink striped socks, although the stripes are pink and white, not a lighter pink and a darker pink, as worn by Miss Smith. Although I eschew the camouflage pants, I do put my own slight military twist to the outfit by combining these lovely, girly socks with my beloved steel-toed combat boots and a pair of jeans with the cuffs rolled up just enough so the socks are just visible when standing, and more than visible when sitting.

Put that together with Leather Kate and a new preferred hairdo, it’s quite a look. Unfortunately, I’m unable to find a picture of that particular inspiration at the moment. I’ll have to search my files, for I think there’s one hiding somewhere.

stripes! pink stripes!

This screen cap is simply and unabashedly gratuitous, although if you look closely enough, more of the ensemble is visible. But really? It’s only included here because it’s Sarah! Jane! Smith!.
