Lavender...........as in Socks




My lavender socks make me smile. Yes, this is just a day after I said I adore wearing black. Pay no attention to me, when it comes to fashion I change my mind all the time. Mind you, these lavender socks that I bought in Paris are going to look fabulous with my black oxfords too, maybe even better than they do with the chocolate browns ones. I also bought a coral pair of socks, can you imagine how much fun that will be peeking out from a pair of black oxfords and black pants this winter? I have been telling my husband for months that he needs more fun colour in the sock department. So far, he hasn't listened...........so never mind, he will see these and watch how fast he buys them now. I know it.

    Awesome! Do you have on lavender anywhere else, or just on your feet?

    Love these bright socks with a monotone colour scheme. My conservative brother-in -law wears outrageous socks with his beautifully tailored business suits. Warm wishes

    Love them {and anything in that beautiful shade}! I especially love the tie blouse you purchased. I always cherish anything I bring home from Paris just for the reason that it came from Paris. Silly, I know. Repetto loafers are on my wishlist; although, I doubt I will be able to wait to purchase them the next time I visit.
    Wishing you a lovely week!
    xoxo, B

    Oh la la. Jolies, les chaussettes lavande... et parisiennes aussi? Excellent choice (love your new Oxfords too...) Funny, I just posted about my new "Richelieu shoes" this week too -- this is what we call brogues or Oxfords in France :-) Veronique (French Girl in Seattle)

    j'ADORE the socks....you know I love the shade of lavender....and dare I say only the French would have socks in this perfect tone....and easier to show off than a lavender soutien-gorge, non?

    Love the lavender. Socks are an excellent choice to get a bit crazy with - a peek into the wild side. My hubby loves spots and stripes and sometimes the don't even match! ;)
