Florida Sock Weather

We might live in Florida, but we get out share of cold front here. In fact, I have all of the windows open right now, taking advantage of the mild breeze and clean air. I have to get the house aired out now, because a cold front is actually on its way as I write this. While it might be breezy and in the mid-70s this very minute (yes, it is indeed paradise in Florida), the season’s first cold snap is well on its ways. A county or two inland could very well see temperature drop below freezing this weekend.
Tonight, temps will be in the low to mid 40s in my own backyard. So, that brings me to one of my favorite things about cold weather – socks. Heh. I’ll bet you expected me to say anything except for socks.
The thing is, I adore socks and tights. I wore them all of the time up north and had an impressive collection. Here in Florida, I usually wear sandals and though I have been known to throw a pair of sock on WITH the sandals on that rare occasion where I forgot to take the trash out the night before, I more often don’t.
My daughter wears socks every day with her little tennis shoes, for school. But now that the cool weather is here for a little while, she is excited about tights. I know. You are probably laughing at me, but you have to think of the old adage “you don’t know what you have until it’s gone.” Socks and tights are fun, cozy, fashionable. Due to my propensity for shopping online (and avoiding the annoying crowds), I love it that Hue.com offers $5 flat shipping on any size order. And now, onto my quest for sweater tights.
