Short story: I once was dating a guy who was all about buying tons of different socks. Much like I was all about underwear. There, did you like my story? Well, the point is, these two are generally a pretty logical pair. Socks and underwear, two things we all often wear every day that don’t get much limelight throughout the day.
What else? They both have the ability to be fun, whacky, and even sexy. So it makes sense to make a match! Now there are some brands out there that do indeed make matching socks. I have three sets of matching socks/undies from Cellblock13. I didn’t always buy the pairs together but picked up the matching socks later.
The nice thing about a brand making both the underwear and the socks is that the branding, markings, etc. They will generally be consistent and match each other. A perfect pair! I myself have three pairs of matching Cellblock13 socks and underwear. It’s great to have a perfectly consistent design and color scheme. And there are options too: My yellow socks are much different in design than my blue ones but they still all match the underwear great. I recently wore my yellow and black pairs to an underwear night and was declared quite a sexy little bumble bee.
However even when a brand doesn’t it can be super fun and empowering to make a match! By chance, I had a pair of bright pink knee high socks (like one does). They happen to match the waist band of a pair of JOR undies I have. Naturally one day, I made a match! And why not? It’s super fun.
Now the Cellblock13 socks that I mention are much more aligned with the sexiness and more fetish side of the matching idea. They are definitely meant to entice and that’s perfectly good. Other socks can be much more innocent, meant to perk up an outfit. Much like underwear they can be used in completely different ways and it’s all up to you.
For super fun and funky designs Happy Socks always has a good offering. These are great to wear to work and have them peeking out at the office all day. They just make everything a bit more jovial and who couldn’t use that?
I mean when you think about it, it’s what Superman did. There is something so fun and uplifting about know that underneath your work attire or day to day wardrobe. You’ve dressed like SuperYou. Just give me a cape and watch me save the day. Seriously. It’s enjoyable and yes, in a way, kind of silly and there isn’t anything wrong with that.
So go for it, make a match!
