O Basics Over the Knee Socks from Sock Dreams

O Basics Over the Knee Socks

Available in 29 colors at Sock Dreams.

"Fiber Content: 68% recycled cotton, 17% acrylic, 15% spandex. Machine or hand was in cold to cool water, tumblr dry low or hang dry.

Sizing Tips: Women's shoe size 5-10, maybe even bigger. These start at approximately 24 inches from heel to top, but may only be knee-high on longer legs or thigh-high on shorter legs.

There seems to be a lot of discrepancy in the maximum calf width for these, and there seems to be no rhyme or reason to which colors are which size. We'll keep checking them as we get more, and hopefully soon we'll get some consistency!

For now:
Recommended for 16 inches or less only: Teal and Grey. Best bet for larger calves (may be uncomfortably snug at 20 inches): Seafoam, Hunter, Natural, Olice, Plum, and Royal.

The other colors should be fine up to 17 or 18 inches. Anyone with a calf circumference of less than 16 inches should have no problems with any of them."

Purchased these socks a few weeks ago because the old thigh highs that I used were actually my husband's old black socks. The heel of the sock would always hang out if I wore heels and it didn't look pretty, hahaha! So, I went on a search for some comfortable, but affordable thigh highs so I can give back his socks and have my own, haha!

When I got them, I was surprised with how fast the shipping was! It was free shipping too since I live in the U.S. :D Aside that, there was no struggle to put them on, they fit just right on my feet, AND they didn't roll down! Since I'm short, these are thigh highs on me instead of over the knee which is great cause they give me more variety of wear :]

Here's a few outfits I put together with the different ways I wore them:
Pulled all the way up, scrunched under my knees, and rolled over my knees.

I photoshopped the socks blue and green because they would be a lot more expressive than just black. The next one I want to get is that Royal blue and then that Kelly green :B

I'd say my only complaint with these are that they're a little rough. Not itchy, but I suppose they could be considered kind of coarse. Like, when I wear them and I'm on heels for hours, I start feeling the pattern on the bottom of my feet. However, I'm not complaining much because they were only $6 with no shipping and they're available in 29 colors. I'm pretty happy with that combination x]
