Trend Alert: Sock Garters

Nerea Lurgain, Spring 2009

My first reaction was, "Ack! It's grandpa all over again." But after a few deep breaths, I concluded that the trend wasn't a total shock after all (given the proliferation of knee highs in the coming season). Particularly intriguing is the sock-garter-over-tights look which we can thank the beautiful Roxanne Carter (below) for. Who knew the look might actually grow on me (even if only on another person?)

I doubt I'll try this look but I'm sure some fashionistas will be able to make it work.

Humm... I'm too old for this trend (despite I don't think age must be a thing for not wearing something), or maybe in another way I'll put that I'm not into this trend becuase I don't feel it.

There're some looks in this that I think cute, others too weird.

I'm too old for this too^^, but I wish the trend was in place when I was in 5th grade when I wore kneesocks. They wouldn't have fallen down so much!

Who knew? Great trend-spotting!

Somehow they are a tad less sexy than the thigh-high kind . . .
