Socks and garters

Nov 26, 2008 12:33

Those of you who wear knee-socks, over-the-knee socks, and thigh-highs - How do you keep them up?
I am short - 5'2" - so most thigh-highs are more like hip-highs for me. Often, they kind of roll up at the top of my leg and stay fairly well-put.
But I've found some really neat over-the-knee socks which I suspect will hit me mid-thigh. They are cotton or wool so I think too thick for my garter snaps. How would you suggest I keep them in place? Do those elastic garters work well? Do you think if I attached those mitten claws to some elastic garters that would work? Or would they all just fall down?
In past experience (years ago) knee highs and knee socks ALWAYS fall down on me. I want to start incorporating more awesome long socks (preferably with vertical stripes) into my wardrobe but I'm concerned with keeping them in place.
