I remember that as a child I predominantly wore white tube socks (it was the 80s after all), but as I got older my choice of socks got progressively more conservative. From the start of my teenage years until quite recently I owned almost exclusively black and dark grey pairs. They sort of matched with everything although it didn’t really matter; who was going to see them anyway?
As I started wearing my trousers shorter or rolled-up I realised that I wasn’t going to get away with putting on some washed-out socks and got some brightly coloured ones instead. These are from Happy Socks. And they really are. They make me feel like dancing…
