this is such an exciting thread. sadly i have little to contribute but i am having so much fun looking at what you guys have posted
céline fur slippers: s/s 2013 (sknss also posted a fitpic with them above). i think they're so cute and funny and i also included what google images suggests as similar to these pool sliders, as it was also cute and funny.
i feel the socks with sandals or socks with open-toed shoes thing has been quite common in
womenswear and twee fashion specifically for some time, so i guess that's where i've gotten used to the style.
(sidenote: the last image shows the kind of sandals i'e been wanting for some time: a thick chunky wood or leather-covered sole with very clean straps—no overt stitching detail. they look like kork-eases but i can't find the exact model.)
