Some things are definitive and can't be debated – Michael Jordan is a basketball player, Veronica Mars is not a singer, and the hot dog is certainly NOT a sandwich. But others are a little bit more gray area, like whether or not you can wear socks with sandals.
Historically, the combination of socks and sandals has been considered an embarrassing fashion faux pas. It is a look that many people have strong opinions about, with the majority of those who don't like it being vocal about their disdain on social media and in real life.
The good news, however, is that the look has become less and less of a faux pas as time goes on. In fact, we're beginning to see it come into more and more fashion circles - even R&B artists and Tik Tokers have pulled off this look in the past few years.
A case for the socks and sandals trend
One of the best reasons to try wearing socks with sandals is because they are super cute and quirky, which will definitely make you stand out from the crowd. Socks are also a great way to keep your feet cool and dry if you're spending a lot of time in the heat, and will help protect against blisters.
The bad news, however, is that many people don't like this look, and they will probably be more than happy to share their thoughts with you if they notice you wearing it. This is something that you should probably avoid unless you're confident about your looks and can handle the comments.
