How do I wear sparkle socks?

Sparkle socks look good with loafers, Mary Janes, block heels, ballet flats and trainers, where the sparkle shows between the hem and the shoe. They suit cropped trousers, skirts and dresses. For a layered look in cooler weather, wear them over sheer tights. They brighten up a plain outfit for parties, Christmas and weddings. Silver and gold both look festive.

How do I care for sparkle socks?

Hand wash sparkle and beaded socks in cool water, or use a wash bag on a gentle cycle, and dry them flat away from heat. Avoid tumble drying, which can damage the lurex and loosen beads. They make easy gifts and stocking fillers. Store sparkly hosiery folded in a drawer, away from velcro and zips, and wash it separately from rougher fabrics so the lurex stays smooth.
