Menswear: Stepping Out of the Box with Colored Socks

Men, are you looking to add a fresh twist to your work wardrobe without stepping too far outside the box (though for the month of August we are encouraging everyone to go BOLD)? Try swapping out your regular black dress socks for pairs with bright colors and fun patterns.

When it comes to wearing colored socks there are no rules. Just think of the outfits that you're likely to be wearing and look for colors to complement your pants and shirts. Pops of red, orange, purple and yellow are especially popular right now. Most importantly, have fun with it!

Colored socks can come as cheap as three pairs for $20 at Gap, run $55 a pair at retailers like Paul Smith and go up to $185 at Barneys. When in doubt  always go for Happy Socks, one of our favorite brands who became popular for their use of vibrant colors and whimsical prints.
