My favorite socks are knee high or higher ones, lol. They're so comfy! I have a few awesome pairs of knee-highs, OTKs and even some thigh highs I also like some of the really decorative ones.

like these

or these, of which I have a few that look similar (though not these exact ones). I even have a pair that has little cat-bells attached, which are super cute, and make a little bit of sound when you walk around with them, lol.

I also have a few other pretty elaborate ones, but I can't find any pictures of those online, but they're from a few different taobao sellers and brands like Jane Marple.

also, pretty tights are awesome as well

I love the BTSSB ones!
 
A few years ago my sister got me this Mario sweatshirt from China. It's more cosmetic than anything, since it has no insulation from the cold. But it zips all the way up over your face so you become Mario! Even though you can't see...

I want a pair of galaxy leggings. I have no idea what I'd wear them with in my existing wardrobe though.

A necklace of the serotonin molecule is nice too.

Don't but Sally Hensons new "Foil" nail polish. It chipped after like an hour.

I hate it when a nail polish chips after a week despite the claims from that particular nail polish or top coat. I've used ridge filler, base coat, "durable" nail polish, and top coat. But because my job is of a grocery store checker, I use my hands a lot and my nail polish chips regardless. The only time my polished nails remained perfect for over a week was when I was sick with a virus for a week so I remained bedridden and miserable. Any ideas on how to make polished nail last unchipped beyond a week? I'm trying to be ecofriendly too, so I go with products that are "3-free" (formaldehyde, toluene, and dibutyl phthalate) at the least.

At my job I'm constantly putting on and taking off nitrile gloves and when it gets hot the nail polish sticks to the gloves and I rip pieces right off. Gel seems to work fine for me, I have the little lamp. That's pretty expensive though. I recently saw some new UVless gel that claims to be just as good as gel so I might give it a try.




ALSO! If you do go the route of DIY gel manicures with the lamp, "gel cleaner" (used to pretreat the nail and remove the film that the curing leaves behind) is 70% isopropyl alcohol. Buying a bottle of gel cleaner is a scam, it costs about 4 bucks. A bottle of 70% isopropyl can be found in the first aid section of pharmacies for less than a dollar.

Oh and speaking of nails and such I've found an ecofriendly nail polish remover that has reached holy grail status for me. I've tried other ecofriendly polish removers, and they either still smell like ass and/or don't remove polish effectively. I've discovered this product in one of my beauty subscription boxes. It smells like oranges and one wipe really does remove polish from 10 nails! Glitter polishes may require vigorous scrubbing, however.

Has anyone got any experience with sock garters? I kinda want some on the account that they're cute on some outfits, but I want to know if they're not just horribly pointless and/or uncomfortable.

Also, gonna just put a ton of stuff on here :o

One of my favorite shirts. It's in Arabic. It reads, "How are you today?" I make a point that if I'm wearing any clothing with writing in a foreign language on it, I know exactly what it says. That way there isn't any unintentionally embarrassing or offensive content on it. Unfortunately this mostly restricts the languages on my shirts to English, Spanish, and Arabic...
