shorts: Nasty Gal, top: Topshop, jackets: Topshop, Miss Selfridge, socks: Topshop, shoes: Whistles
Looking at these photos there seems to be a schoolgirl vibe going on … maybe it’s the long socks, blazer and backpack combo! But that wasn’t intentional, promise 😉 I just really wanted to take these new Nasty Gal shorts on an outing and since it was too cold to go barelegged I put on these socks and layered up with two jackets. I’m a major cold wus but this outfit kept me nice and warm.
I found finding shoes to go with long socks really difficult! Settled on these pink plimsoles as they match the shorts. Does anyone have any suggestions as to what shoes to wear with them?

Thanks 😀
I love that backpack! Actually, love the whole outfit! I’m not typically a fan of pink but the way these shorts are distressed give them a little edge. Great job styling them!

Thanks 😀 I’m also not a huge pink fan but you’re right, the distressing is cool. You can get the backpack from Topshop!
hi! this is very nice! you look amazing! i love the long socks! are you a fan of them? i hope you got some good compliments on the street! thanks for sharing! 🙂
Thanks for your lovely comment! I do love long socks but it’s so difficult to pair them with shoes, much easier wearing them indoors 🙂 do you have a shoe recommendation for them? x
I just started looking at your blog and I am in love! You have great style. I wear/would wear long socks with brogues, penny loafers, clogs and doc martens.
Oh and if you’re daring-sneakers.
Hey Aria, thanks so much for enjoying the blog and your awesome shoe ideas. I love the idea of sneakers with long socks!
Not a problem! i agree shoes can be difficult i think simplicity is the best. The shoes you wore were perfect for the outfit but I also think a small heel is a good choice, oxford type shoes. I even like the knee high boot look but sometimes the socks are just as nice when turned down under your knee! Worth experimenting! I like to see co-ordination of the colours – preferably pastel type ones. Can I email you sometime?
Hey Jeremy, of course, my email is on the about me page 🙂 some good ideas there, thanks!
Aww you’re welcome and I love how you reply to each of your comments. That’s so sweet.
Haha here I go again! Well it’s just I appreciate all of my comments a lot, and it’s lovely to chat to people visiting my blog 🙂
Stick with these sneakers! These little pink plimsoles are to die for and you look AMAZING!! Hope to see more outfits with these little sneakers!!
Haha thanks Jamie 😀 I love them so much but they’re better in summer, not so good in rainy English winter!
