match with your outfit
One of the most important things to keep in mind while picking socks is to match them with your outfit. Your socks should complement the overall style and look of your outfit.

on the other hand, if you are wearing some simple sneakers or shoes then you can consider pairing them with colorful or patterned socks which will make your outfit more fashionable.
