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
