  10. Oh, I'd love to, if only... my legs wouldn't look like stumps in socks, I could learn how to walk in high heels & socks, my legs weren't freezing... Happy Wednesday, Lenore!

  11. I would consider rocking the look in a warmer climate (c'mon socks in Singapore - it's way too hot for that!)

  12. I don't mind the look, but I personally think it's a little too girly for me. I'd do this with tights and closed-toe heels though!

  21. To say this look would not be for me, would be an understatement! NEVER. Cute on the models, however does not translate AT all!

  22. Thank you everyone!
    Whatever it is, don't fall on those high heels okie!

    xo*

  23. I have a terrible confession: I love the socks and sandals look! I think these sky high heels are divine with socks! However, I don't wear heels myself very often - I'm too comfort driven but as a look - fab!
