gratuitous, gorgeous grey

Socks and sandals in winter... I love this look and have recently stepped over the odd snowbank with feet warmly ensconced in NOT BOOTS but strappy wedgelike heels and black stockings. A stylish fallback for everyone, even if you are not Parisienne and featured in the photos above. Any favourites? I'm guessing #1 will be popular...

I'm still a sucker for tights, I'll always be.
yet of course, the wedges are fab.

*love* this look - especially the shoes in the 4th photo (very Marni). thick knitted tights are my favorite things this winter.

#s 2 & 4... Love the black/gray combo and how the tights are slightly textured.

Yay! Now I can wear cute shoes AND keep my feet warm.

Nah, who am I kidding...I'll just go back to boots.

What takes #1 above and beyond is that zipper on the grey jean. Just enough to contrast with the delicate bows on the t-strapped lady-like heels.

liza: Agreed. Tsubi has a pair like that, but I'm not sure what she is wearing...

I love the shoes in the first picture! So cute. And the skinny makes it look less preppy.

i can't get enough of this look and my infatuation with glasses and geek chic. it makes me very happy.

my vote #2 and #3.

I love it-the socks and sandals look that is. Boots can be so much fun as well, but sometimes you just want something a touch more feminine, small details to draw the eye. No 1 is my fave.

I love this look! It`s still too early here in Norway to kick of the boots tough, but in a month or so..

Love them all!
I'm going to Paris in two weeks, so I'll definately go for this look. Here in Oslo, the snowy weather requires boots....
