Trend Spotting: Socks + High Heels

There was a time when I always wore anklets with my beloved party shoes. The socks had a lace ruffled trim. The shoes were patent leather Mary Janes. And I was six years old. Now, twenty years later, I'm just as excited about perky ankle-length socks with high heels.

Eager to try the trend? Pick up a few pairs of nylon anklets at WeLoveColors.com. There are a staggering 51 colors to choose from - and an incredibly affordable price tag of only $3.50 per pair. With such a low investment, I can afford to risk my dignity for a trend. I'd like to try the light tan, aqua, charcoal, rubine and spruce green.
