sexy isn’t always in your face. it can be understated, subtle, unexpected. it can also be practical (just ask the practical femme in your life). everything from your toes to your head has the potential to be both sexy and practical, so give them a try with these socks. keep your toes happy in simple stockinette, then flash a little bit of lace tail on the backs of your legs. paired with a neutral speckle like hilori’s yarnorium’s “ruddy vixen” colourway, you can keep that little balance going with little shocks of colour that can only be seen if looking close enough…
