Watching the (Fashion) Detectives
One of our best pals, she of glamorous gowns and girl gangs, has written in to you with a desperate plea for sartorial sleuthing assistance! And she even sent a sketch. I must admit, doves, that even I am stumped:
"I'm trying to find these socks....they're more like stocking material. They come up to your ankle, but they look like a Mary Jane shoe almost--a dramatic low cut front with a strap and a button that holds them up. I can't even figure out how to google them--I've come close, but no cigar."
Whaddaya say... can we help her?
oh and I'm all goody two shoes hand straight up in the air, "I know, I know!" Sickening.

Oh, those are so close, Claire! The ones I'm thinking of are sheer. But your answer is leading me in the right direction, because until today I'd never heard of a sockette. With some creative googling, I managed to find these:

Almost as good.
