Sock Stars
all tied up with the prettiest of ribbons
Let’s start with the m squared… they came up to just below my kneecap, so I folded them down about an inch while I was wearing them out with my short pants(note: m squared not warm enough for Canadian winter lol) but for the photo here I wore them without folding. they bagged a wee bit around the ankles but not too bad, my mom keeps looking at them and I think she wants to steal them lol. Sorry about the blurry photoshop thing, my knees looked really heinous lol dang overhead light I should have turned off. :P
Now the not sO basics… the black O basics you know and love with pretty white organza ribbon bows. I had to move the bows around the sock a little because when I straightened the weave so it was vertical on my legs(yes I’m obsessed with that lol) the bows were on the insides of my legs. :) (I spy Niq has these shoes too lol)
And last but not least the O chevrons eXtra long…. I know it’s what I’ve been longing for (pun intended ;P groan) …. I wore them folded down twice x1″ at the top so they wouldn’t dig in too much, a wee bit wrinkly in the knee area but they are well over my knee at last YAY!!! *spazz* …and for the larger legged folks these look awesomely cute scrunched down too.
An excellent set of socks *applauds*

I cant wait for mine to show up, I instantly ordered them when they came up on the journal. I should get them tomorrrooooooowww. I cant wait to wear them so I might have layer them on when they come. I doubt I will be able to decide which ones get priority. I’ll send a photo.

I have the major hip stretchmarks too and some on the inside top of my thigh, when the hip ones were fresh it looked like I got beaten with a whip. BRIGHT red…. O_O

Nice review. Is this box set the only place on the site where you can get M Squareds? I can’t seem to locate them…

NYC is plenty warm enough for the lighter socks now… I want more snow though!!!

wow, knee stretchmarks? that’s amazing. my growth spurts landed a couple on my thighs and gave me many-striped hips, too. a couple of torn ligaments and muscles along the way, of course…us long-legged girls suffer for our gams! ;)
