Adidas Socks

There were various clothing articles that were holy grail items for me growing up. They were always unattainable to some degree, whether it was because my mom won't buy it for me, I could never pull it off, or it's only available in Asia.

• Off-shoulder shirts (I think growing up, I saw Purps wear a yellow one once, and I really wanted one, but I was too fat and chunky to wear anything that exposed my round "man-shoulders" as my mom calls them. My shopping spree these few weeks that consisted of purely off-shoulder shirts and dresses could probably be understood if I was given a psychological examination.
• Baby Phat white sneakers with the row of little gems that go up the side and the tiny cat. They resemble Adidas superstars, but with a decidedly more girly spin. Yes, I do own a pair of white Adidas super-stars with black stripes. Now I know why.
• The school-girl look was an aesthetic I tried to emulate every Halloween, and once in blue moon throughout the rest of the year. Plaid skirts, white dress-shirts, knee-high socks, backpacks, I wanted it all. That would explain why I bought this sailor-shirt from LAPS in both navy blue and white reminiscent of Sailor Moon's school uniform top, which brings me to my latest purchase on Saturday: Adidas white socks both crew-top and knee-high.

How could I resist? They're entirely adorable.

Plus, they make me adorable too.
