Every morning is the same. We wake up, roll out of bed, dress, eat breakfast and head out the door. We sometimes need to remember how many choices there are to be made and how many we have already made.
The clothes we pick out are usually something we have purchased ourselves or received as a gift. That is, you have already chosen your appearance beforehand, before even selecting which T-shirt you should match with your jeans.
Apparently, there is a lot to be said about our fashion choices. For a lot of people, clothes do not need to stand out or have a specific meaning. Most people dress simply and comfortably and according to the weather.
But what you sometimes forget is that dressing more laid back also is a choice. Something that has been decided by your person and what you stand for.
Traditional or Daring
When it comes to choosing your attire, there are a lot of different possibilities. It also comes down to what you expect from fashion in general. Should it be something that shows that you are a creative and daring soul? Or should it simply tell that you are sophisticated and serious?
It has long been a fashion tradition for a true gentleman to wear dress socks in neutral and modest colors.
There are other choices to be made if you would like to stand out a little more. These dress socks might expand your traditional style a little, and if it gets too scary, they are quite easy to hide away with long pants.
What is Fashion Really for?
What does this analysis of fashion choices tell us, other than it is an unnecessary piece of information? Nothing, maybe just something fun to read and learn more about. Clothing started being entirely for practical matters. Protecting us from burning heat or terrible coldness.
Today we do not necessarily dress ourselves according to what is expected or practical.
An example of dressing, unlike the expected, are recent fusions of fields. A new trend that combines fashion and sports is “Bowling Alley Chic.” Apparently, you can look like you are going bowling when in fact, you are just trying to look stylish.
Are There Generational Differences?
A dress sock is said to make you look more elegant and sophisticated, simply better. But according to who? That is maybe what the older and more traditional generations would say. The younger generations and Gen Z typically do not find that the more neutral and classic your hosiery is, the more stylish.
Younger generations sometimes wear long socks in the summertime and also pair them with sandals. According to an article, Gen Z’s are completely off when it comes to choosing hosiery.
A controversy to some, something exciting to others.
Some think that generational differences have grown bigger in fashion, but if the youth wears socks in sandals, doesn’t that witness that we are getting closer to the older generations? Whatever the newest trends and norms are in fashion, you should have the freedom of choice to wear exactly what you want.
