When To Wear Black Socks Or White Socks

Many people, especially men, wonder as to what color socks they should wear when it comes to black socks and white socks.  Many men rely on women to pick out their socks for them as they often do with their wardrobe.  However, the choice between black socks and white socks and when to wear them does not have to be so perplexing to men, even if they do not have a woman in their life to tell them what to wear.  If you have been wondering whether or not to wear black socks or white socks and need a bit of a guideline, then continue reading. 

 

Of course, if you are wearing an all black outfit, especially when you are dressing up, then you will look out of place if you wear white socks instead of black socks.  It stands to reason that you should wear black socks to blend in when wearing all black or formal attire.  The rule of thumb when it comes to socks is that they should match your shoes.  When you are dressing up in a suit, chances are that your shoes will be dark so you will want to dress in black socks.  The general rule of thumb when it comes to the choice between black socks and white socks is that black socks are for more formal occasions, such as when you are wearing a suit as well as suit shoes.  White socks should be reserved when you are wearing light colored shoes and are dressed in more casual attire.  

 

If you are wearing a gray suit, you may feel conflicted as to what type of socks you should wear.  Again, you will want to take a look at the shoes that you are wearing so that you can come up with a decision.  If, for some reason, you have light colored shoes and a light colored suit, then you can go with white socks.  You can also think outside the box a bit and get yourself some gray socks that will match this type of outfit.  Most men will not color coordinate their socks to their outfits, so they usually choose between black, white, gray or even brown socks to match the shoes that they are wearing. 

 

When you are wearing sports shoes such as gym shoes, you will look like a complete nitwit if you wear black socks, regardless of the color of the shoes.  White socks are informal and you can wear crew socks that come a bit up on the ankle even if you are wearing dark gym shoes.  Remember that white socks are generally used for a more casual look and black socks are usually used for a more formal look and you will be all set when it comes to choosing the right socks for you. 

 

If you are wearing a suit, chances are that the shoes you are wearing are dark so you will want to wear dark socks such as black socks to match as these are more formal.  If you are working out, wearing gym shoes or wearing shorts and jeans and are dressed in more casual attire, do yourself a favor and wear white socks.  If you happen to have a pair of white Dress Shoes, do yourself a favor and toss them out as they are hopelessly out of fashion.  It is not difficult to determine which type of socks to wear when it comes to black socks or white socks – it just takes a small amount of fashion knowledge and some common sense.  Of course, you can always ask a pretty woman in a store to help you pick out the right socks, even if you know what you are doing as this is always a good opening to get a date.
