Trend notes - Socks and Sandals

Seen on plenty of catwalks back in February (Erdem, Miu Miu, Mulberry and Isa Arfen) now adding socks and sandals to all outfits has also become my favourite way of adding pizazz to my style. 
Socks and sandals can be done in many ways, Adidas sliders with pulled up white Adidas socks (never tried this one) sheer tight socks and platform sandals (spotted tight socks are the best) and most commonly heeled sandals and sparkly socks as above. 
Investing in a few pairs of pretty socks is an inexpensive way of styling up old items. This gorgeous multi-coloured sparkling pair are from Topshop and we’re a mere £3 or three pairs for £8 (I also got two pairs of spotted ones too.)
