Love this look a lot—it’s a lot of simple elements that I like, put together impeccably and the sharp lines of that skirt are the standout for me—BUT, this and all the thigh high socks on runways are making me irritable.
They look lovely and they’re always a step more interesting than tights, but in my experience, high socks never work out as planned.
They’re scratchier than tights and its hard to pull them off without looking at all skanky. Most upsetting of all, they sag. I’m not talking about the enviable rumpling seen in this photo. Oh no, that’s what comes before your stupid socks start edging down past your knees. There’s nothing like tugging up your thigh highs to make you feel 1) like a skank 2) like a fashion victim.
