Pick sock colors for a holiday theme, like orange and black for Halloween. You can also choose bright colors that offset each other, like bright blue and pink, or orange and purple. Pair socks with slightly different patterns, like stripes of different widths or smaller and larger polka dots. The 80s were all about fun, colorful clashes, so don’t be afraid to mix and match!

If you can’t find socks in different lengths, buy them all in a longer style. You’ll have to scrunch the top pair more than the others, but you can still make the look work!

You won’t be able to do this if one of your pairs of socks is significantly shorter than the other(s), because the shortest pair will have to go on top to be visible. Don’t worry, your look is sufficiently 80s even without the mismatched layers!

Wear bright tights under the skirt to sport a more conservative look.
