Dark Green & Orange Shadow Stripe Midweight Cotton Socks

Fabulous for Fall

A rich and earthy green tone literally grounds the vibrant, almost metallic orange of this striped sock, making a bold color considerably easier to wear. Although an excellent choice for the dandy clothes horse, this sock can also be integrated into less flashy casual ensembles with me.  

You will note that the green offsets the orange in such a way as to give it a brown tone, making coordination with other colors, especially greens, olives, and brown, a breeze.    

How To Accessorize

Use these orange and green striped socks as a bridge between your brown leathers and any earthtone colors, but especially green. Pair them with medium to dark beige, olive, or shades of brown to set off the green and then anchor the orange with medium to dark brown shoes and a matching belt.

Echo either the orange or the green once more near the face, through a tie, knit tie, or pocket square, so the socks feel intentionally integrated rather than random. Keep other patterns simple (solid or subtly textured trousers and ties) so the stripe reads as a refined accent instead of competing with bold checks or stripes elsewhere.
