Fuzzy Socks

Socks are a perfect way for someone to express themselves uniquely. You can wear fuzzy socks or socks with fun designs to go with the season or something you like. Colorful socks became popular in the late 20th century and into the 2000’s because of celebrities and the want for individual style and self-expression. You can find them in stores, or you could make your own fun socks by tie-dyeing or iron-on vinyl. Remember, life is too short for boring socks.

“Your day’s not gonna be good if you don’t start your day off with good socks,” junior Zaniyah Howard said

Sweaters

Sweaters are a popular choice in the winter. It’s commonly made of wool, cotton and polyester which makes it a good choice for keeping warm. Popular places to get sweaters are Hollister, Altar’d State and American Eagle. Sweaters are great paired with jeans and a pair of boots. When cold weather comes around, sweaters are cozy and stylish, which makes them a classic winter essential.

“[I like to wear sweaters] because when it gets chilly outside, it’s important to stay warm and it’s comfy,” sophomore Adhalia Blesson said.

Beanies

This is a perfect alternative to baseball caps for the winter weather, and it still provides a comforting fit to anyone who usually wears hats year-round. It can be a great fashion accessory to go with streetwear or casual wear like puffer jackets and sweatshirts. Stores like Amazon, Old Navy and Target sell beanies, and some even have a silk interior so it keeps hair nice and smooth.

“I think they’re interesting,” sophomore Zidian Walker said. “They look cool on specific people.”

Uggs

Uggs gained popularity in the 1990’s going into the 2000’s. In the 2010’s, Uggs slowly decreased in popularity, but came back in style in the 2020’s partly because of social media platforms like TikTok. They are popular among teenagers, and they are commonly worn with comfortable clothes like sweatpants, hoodies, jeans and cute sweaters. They provide comfort and warmth, and they are appropriate for several occasions.

“They’re comfortable and they’re cute,” senior Addelyn Hamilton said. “They keep your feet warm.”
