Ballet Slippers

Soft pink ribbons and classic black-and-white stripes give these women's crew socks the look of tiny stage costumes for your feet. The ballet slipper details bring a graceful, playful feel, while the knit design keeps them firmly in the realm of everyday wear. They have the charm of rehearsal gear with none of the pressure to perform, which is exactly the balance many wardrobes need.

Because the pattern does so much with just a few elements, these socks can brighten jeans, soften a monochrome outfit, or add a surprising finish peeking out from boots or flats. The crew length gives them a little extra presence, so the design has room to show off. They feel polished, but not precious, with just enough wit to make a simple outfit look thought through.

For anyone who loves dance, theater, or clothes with a little personality, these socks make an easy gift. They are sweet without being sugary, and distinctive without asking for a spotlight.
