    Penneys seem to have plenty of different types of socks if you are a girl!

    what do you do with 130 (pairs of) socks? Do you put them on display? change socks 10 times a day? or have a strict rotation of each pair ~3 times a year?

    The only socks I have ever bought were football socks.

    All others just seem to appear in my wardrobe mysteriously.

    I'll be buying my brother a load of socks for his birthday, then stealing them about a month later.

    I love Penneys socks. Socks with cats on them, elephants on them, stripey ones, glittery ones... I saw a lovely pair in TopShop with cupcakes on them, yay!

    People who wear black socks are boring and 'careful' dressers, people who wear white (if men) are a lil la la la if you know what I mean and people who wear quirky ones are showing their creative cool side of themselves, socks are class. I remember as a kid having the socks with Christmas trees on them and rudolf and they lit up and played Christmas carols, NEVER underestimate the POWER of the sock!!! It's not just a foot warmer!!!All hail them!!!:p

    I very rarely wear matching socks... and if I do, its because I got lucky in the "bag of unmatched socks" in my house, almost never happens though.
