Socks with a pattern

gellen — Mon, 11 Nov 2019 21:28:16 GMT

Just my minor fashion pet peeve of the day - I don't understand the point of socks that just have a pattern arcoss the top cuff of the socks. - the part under the pant leg. What's the point?!!

Sometime we wear things just for ourselves even if no one else sees it. Like printed/patterned/bold colored underwear.

Maybe helps people match up a pair. Have you ever tried to match a basket of solid colored socks like maybe all black of different makes and sizes?

When my son was small I always bought him white tube socks with the same color stripe around the top....then they always matched!

The point is that you are a special person ,and worthy of nice things I would rather have something special ,than just a plain Jane pr that are nothing special at all

The design doesn't show when walking but maybe when sitting.

I always wore crazy pattern socks to work, everyone always asked to see them & I would pull up my pant leg. If some stranger on the street doesn't see them, their loss!

I enjoy wearing lacy, feminine matching lingerie under my jeans and sweaters. No one knows it's there but me, but I matter a lot.

Oh, my! I just sorted way too many pairs of plain black & navy socks earlier today. It really takes time. When cold weather comes, I know the number of socks in my laundry will increase. 😱

@wilma I trained DH in the first year we were married to pin the toes of his socks together before throwing them into the hamper. The kids and I did the same. A small container of large pins are kept next to the dirty clothes. My dil says my son still does that and she sent me a thank you note.

@Shanus - what a terrific idea! However, I think it's too late in the game to get DH to do this now!

Socks with a pattern is something I've never, ever have given a thought about.

I think I’m more of the mind that “you can’t teach an old dog new tricks.” 😉

Different strokes for different folks.

Think about it this way....why do people (some) like fancy, lacy panties and bras?

How about widowed 73 year old grandmas?

Who’s gonna see them, except an emergency technician when he does CPR! Ha!

@Annabellethecat66 I enjoy feeling feminine just for me. DH is long gone to the office by the time I'm home from the gym, shower and dress for the day. In the evening, he's usually watching TV when I get undressed, wash up and put on my robe. Nice lingerie is something I do just for myself. Doesn't matter if I was married or needed CPR.
