Patterned vs. Plain - The Socks Edition
I've put together a loli outfit. It consists of a white blouse with a high collar with lace around the neck and on the cuffs, a black lace skirt with a black petti underneath, a handmade headdress (I recreated the one in the American GLB Bible 3) and some black high heel Mary Janes. Which begs the question: SOCKS.
I own two pairs of knee socks that could potentially go with this outfit. The first pair are thick and pure white. I've worn them with a few of my ensembles so far and they're OK, except for the fact that the weather will likely be very hot. The second pair are some socks I picked up at Delia's, which are white with musical staffs, notes, etc. on them. They're thinner, but since they're patterned I'm not sure if I should wear these with something so plain. (And they do sort of get distorted when I wear them...)
So here is my question: Should I do PATTERNED socks with a plain outfit, or just do plain socks?
