Sock It To Me!

I have to wonder what the buyers for department stores are thinking when it comes to socks. Am I the only one in the world who cannot find socks in the matching colors of the current blouses and shirts?

Borrrring!

I've been in most of the major stores in the last couple of days, looking for shirts and tops for the new season. Unfortunately, when I find the right shirt, I find no socks to match it. For that matter, I cannot even find a pair of socks that "blends". If you don't want black or gray, apparently, you're out of luck.

Do the buyers for these stores coordinate their purchases at all? Perhaps there are different buyers for lingerie and clothing. If that is the case, I suggest they get together and talk once in awhile, because this isn't working for the consumer.

I have limited time and do not want to go all over the county looking for a pair of socks that matches a shirt I've purchased. It's a simple request; carry socks with the same colors in them as the newest shirts and blouses.

Perhaps I'm one of the few who still wear socks that coordinate. If that's the case, I will not apologize. I have little opportunity to make a fashion statement these days, so I insist on having fun socks to compliment my attire!
