In case you haven’t guessed… I was the picky pink connoisseur who sent these back in the now pinky lavender because I refused to wear purple-ish socks (I had also refused to wear black shades that were too brownish, or any other color except mostly pure blacks or a little white… Heck, at the time I was freaking out that I was actually trying to include pink in my wardrobe). So, back to sock dreams (which was then the FZMe site) the pinky lavenders went, and I got the black with white stripes instead. Who would have ever known that shortly thereafter our Sock Goddess was going to broaden my sock tastes and invade my closets with many shades of brown, green, pink, red.. etc. (although I am still kinda opposed to yellows… I’ve now learned to never say never). I keep thinking of those old virgina slims ads “you’ve come a long way baby”. And truly, my acceptance of colors in my socks surely has.
The Queentex top striped OTK’s are super cute. More like stockings than socks, yet the look of top band makes them seem quite sock like too. There are no heel seams on these so they will indeed fit every foot. I have to tug them just a tad to get them over my knees, and unfortunately for me they didn’t stay in an over the knee position. But, they never quite fell down completely under my knees either… Just simply did the rolly thing and sorta sat mid knee with wear. The top band feels a bit snug (but more in a hugging way than a “too tight” way), and this might make a little dent in your squishy leg bits (but even on my legs, with these stockings this looked surprisingly okay). I hope that we do get the black versions back in again …They really are sweet (not to mention the fact that they are quite slimming). Though the pinky lavender would be truly at home in my closet these days too :O)
