Let’s talk about socks, baby

I kind of love over-the-knee socks. They’re the one weird outlier in all of fashion in which you look sluttier by covering more skin. Last Friday, I wore a pair that come up to about my mid-thigh (well, when I continually tug them up, anyway) with a short skirt that I wear frequently, and observed that I got checked out/hollered at a lot more than I do when wearing the skirt alone.

In the spirit of this, and partially spurred by a recently-released ad for a new American Apparel product that I’m just going to put after the jump to be safe, here’s a roundup of strange socks and tights you may not know existed.

If you ever wanted to dance like a monster on Sesame Street, these are the ones for you.

IMPORTANT NOTE TO EMILY’S MOM: Mom, you mentioned that you read this blog. Please stop reading this post now, do not click on the jump. Anyone at work, also, might want to not click the jump.
