Ankle Booties and Jeans: Sock Styling Tips for a Second Edition
In the chill of winter, finding the perfect pairing for your ankle boots can be a challenge. But fear not, as we delve into the world of fashion, sharing the author's favourite ways to style short booties with socks, and the preferred socks to show off.
First up, the author's favourite look: minimalist ankle booties by Fortress of Inca, paired with J.Crew's thick camp socks. This subtle combination, with just a sliver of sock showing with the ankle jeans, creates an understated yet stylish appearance. The socks' navy fleck helps them blend in with the jeans, making for a cohesive and chic ensemble.
For those who prefer a boho twist, consider the Sam Edelman boho ankle bootie, boasting a 4.5 inch shaft height and 2.5 inch heel. Pair these with J.Crew camp socks once again, and ankle length skinny jeans by Madewell. The socks' subtle presence adds a touch of personality to this look, while the boots' boho style adds a dash of whimsy.
If rugged is more your style, Timberland's ankle booties, standing tall with a six inch shaft height and three inch heel, are a solid choice. Pair these with J.Crew's warmer camp socks, and ankle length skinny jeans by Madewell (old - similar available). This rugged yet refined look is perfect for those cold winter days.
When it comes to denim, the author prefers wearing wooly socks with ankle jeans instead of full length jeans. This shorter length allows the socks to easily show, reducing fabric, bulk, and styling time. To achieve this look, turn the hem up, slipping on socks, bunching them up, and tucking them under the jeans, then slipping on ankle booties and adjusting as necessary.
For a sleeker look, the author suggests a full-length black pair of skinnies with a deep cuff and a warm no-show sock for pairing with the first booties and skinnies. This look, when paired with the minimalist ankle booties by Fortress of Inca, creates a stylish and sophisticated ensemble.
The author has been wearing a specific pair of booties with a specific pair of socks since 2014, proving that these combinations can stand the test of time. When it comes to no-show socks, the author favours two brands: Smartwool and Nike.
Lastly, the author warns against patterned, thinner, or colorful socks, opting instead for the warmth and comfort of thick camp socks. By following these guidelines, you too can master the art of styling ankle booties with socks this winter.
