Style Notes: How To Wear Socks And Sandals

I’ve learned over the years that you should wear what you want when you want. No matter the trend. This act has allowed me to hone in on my style. Wearing socks with sandals or mules falls into this realm. It is a look that often pops up as a trend, yet feels like a classic when paired with a Birkenstock.

This Fall I revamped my sock drawer and added…
