How to Wear Over the Knee Socks

This article is written by a student writer from the Her Campus at Emory chapter.

The best clothing items are the items that you can transition in between seasons.  Your favorite summer skirts can easily become winter appropriate with a little help from one of this season’s biggest trends, over the knee socks.  To avoid looking like a schoolgirl, here are some ways you can easily incorporate the socks into your look: 

1. Wear with boots

Over the knee socks pair well with any type of boot!  Show them off with booties or let them peek out over your knee high boots.

2. Wear over sheer tights

For those blustery days when pants just won’t do, over the knee socks over tights is a great way to go.  You can even experiment with a printed pair of tights if you’re feeling daring. 

3. Pair with chunky sweaters

Chunky sweaters + skirts + over the knee socks = the perfect outfit.  It’s a put together look but still super cozy.  What more could you ask for?
