How wearing socks feels

Socks are one of those things we all wear, most of the time. They are staples in everyones wardrobes yet often taken for granted. They shield our feet from the cold, from burns cause by the rubbing of the shoe sole against our skin, they absorb sweat to protect us from the pain of getting blisters but for me they are also an incredibly important part of my style. As a person who tends to wear a lot of cropped trousers, putting on that fresh pair of white sports socks really completes my look.  Seeing my outfit in reflective surfaces makes me feel confident and allows me to keep a positive mindset through out the day but I know there have been times where i don't have any washed white socks left and it completely ruins my belief in what I'm wearing. Its almost like the white socks make or break an outfit for me and as i consider my clothes an extension of who i am, if I'm not happy with what I'm wearing then i loose a big part of myself and my confidence. However wearing sports socks can almost feel like a chore, especially if I'm wearing cropped trousers. As I'm walking around my socks tend to slide down and end up creating pleats around my ankle which feels incredibly uncomfortable to me. So that feeling of my socks sliding down is constantly at the back of my head and as soon as i feel it i make sure to pull the sock straight back up again. Wearing socks can be a thing that almost seems invisible in comparison to what goes on in the world, but its something we all have in common and for me personally it has become a peace of clothing i rely on not only for comfort but also for happiness and confidence.
