Leg Bling..
Ever heard of Tattoo Socks? Nor had I until a random search on Etsy threw them up (which some of you may be tempted to do..but bear with me). Think about it..it’s like statement, throwaway fashion that makes more of a mark than any High Street rip-off could…your favourite outfit taken to new, giddy heights. Try it and love or try it and loath it, the choice is yours but at – considering the wow factor – a pocket pleasing price…
(If I was an actress up for an Oscar about to walk the red carpet..I’d wear these..or as a bride going up the aisle??..or a first day at work under a pair of three quarter length trousers?? Hehe! )
Ever wanted long hair??!
Possibly better than nude ankle socks (Sorry Kerry!) I just feel these things have legs….I wonder when we’ll see them at a Fashion Week..or on a runway..
Laters, Kate x







Definitely much better that the nude ankle socks! I found the clothes there fantastic but the socks… sorry.
I feel abandoned! I alone shall wave the flag for nude ankle socks..sigh! These are fab..the first ones have my heart! xxx
Yep, I am so sorry, but it has been too long time seeing these socks as a horrible, horrible thing. Too late for me to change. Whenever I see them or the ones going to the knee, even if the end is properly covered by the trousers I cannot avoid imagining, actually “seeing”, the naked leg with these socks on it. I guess is a trauma I carry since my childhood 🙂
Ooo nice…..xx
Tempted??! xxx
Always darling!!! Xx
ohh its really unique and amazing idea!
All the style..without the pain! xxx
I want them all!
I do remember seeing a girl wearing these at the Vogue Fashion Festival last year..I had to take her picture as she made such an impression..but I had no idea where to find them..until now!
Oh man some of those are really hot! On women’s legs of course. I shan’t be purchasing any.
But you could start a whole new male fashion trend!..maybe we need to write to the manufacturers and explain we need a whole long sleeved t-shirt range for men……… xxx
Ha. I think you’re onto something there Kate. Patent that straight away.
By the way, I read your most recent post this morning. Your little girl looks so much like her mum!
Bless you! I fear she knocks me out of the ball park! xxx
I can see many uses for the “Don’t Panic” pair in my world! XO
Hehe..and there’s a seven deadly sins pair ready and waiting! xxx
so cool
Need to get them now before the High Street starts churning them out! xxx
It’s not a bad idea! Like the one with the butterflies, it’s cute.
There’s another one with birds and flowers that’s lovely too.. xxx
I’m mad about this trend ! These socks remind me of the nude socks with tattoos from Rodarte’s Autumn/Winter 2013-2014 show, but in an edgier version ! xxxxx
Oooohhh..I’m going to have to search for this! xxx
I like the butterflies but think you’d have to have really slim legs to pull this one off!
I refuse to let size dictate fashion..you like it..you do it! xxx
Lol agree with u in principle but not all trends work for everyone ☺️
These are fantastic, love!!!!! xxx
They make me smile! xxx
Not my thing but there are some pretty cool designs on them!
Some are definitely more subtle than others! xxx
Oh…my! My twenty year old self woulda loved these!…but as I’m no longer as young as I used to be I think I’ll leave this trend to others. Cool idea though! The “Don’t Panic” pair are tempting… Cortneybre

Slap on the wrist for Cortneybre..age is IRRELEVANT! You like? You wear..with pride! xxx
I love these!! I’m definitely getting a pair!
Look forward to seeing some pics! xxx
I like the giraffes best! I used to work with someone who had a giant millipede tattooed snaking its way around her upper thigh. Sent a delighted shiver of scandal through the archive when we noticed it. Jx
As in really got a millipede tattooed?? But the pain? Although it has to be better than Cheryl Coles bottom roses..I’ll think I’ll stick to a nice pair of nylons….xxx
I’m definitely with you on the nylons! Jx
Absolutely adore the “Don’t Panic” ones too, but if I pulled on a pair of these lovelies…
I think that’s exactly what would happen—my whole {entire} world would PaNic!!…lol…
but for those who can pull off this bold leg bling then go for it ’cause it’s totally rad!! ~xo
On that basis..you have to do it!! xxx
I love it! Where can I get some? I’m loving the giraffes. And if my legs aren’t slim enough, my arms certainly are. I’ll wear them as sleeves.
Slap on the wrist for Laura Lynn…size is not an issue..we wear what we love..although if you wear a pair of leggings stretched to transparency I will feel compelled to point this fact out…! xxxx
Which is exactly what would happen if I tried to wear those. har
Wow these are really fun, obsessed with the giraffes!
I think you’d need to give them names.. xxx
Reblogged this on from campus with love and commented:
Such a cool idea!
Xoxo
Thank you! xxx
Hey, those remind me of the tattoo-like collections of SOMF (http://somf.gr/collections.html) I came across some time ago! Leg bling is so cool!
Oooh! Will have to check out..it is fun, easy, affordable fashion..which as to get a very big tick! xxx
haha! i almost bought some for halloween this past year. i wanted to get the tights that made my legs look like a dolls with the joint at the knee.
