This started with marscapone, who posted the cutest EVER picture of her new thigh high socks. I immediately had to find some, too, already owning one pair from LL Bean, of all places (who knew?). Sock Dreams is the most fun place to shop for socks on the web (and tights, garters, petticoats, arm and leg warmers). But it turns out that marscapone got hers at TARGET! So I also went there last night and scooped up not one, not two, but THREE, count ‘em, pairs of the cutest argyle thigh high socks. I promise to take photos when I have my camera handy.

So, here’s the benefits of thigh high socks, girls, in case you haven’t tried them yet:

  • Warmth all the way up your leg when you’re wearing a skirt. Or shorts. Without the fuss of tights.
  • SEXY
  • Fun patterns and yarns that are just too bulky for tights.
  • SEXY
  • Not TOO warm.
  • SEXY
  • Option for sock garters or not, depending on the type you buy. Either way, SEXY.
  • Did I mention SEXY? :)
