    You'll definitely want something to showcase your socks, so try going a little shorter on the bottom half of your body with maybe a skater shirt. This, plus a combat boot, graphic T-shirt or tank top, and crop jacket would look great! For a cozier look, try an oversized knit sweater that lands around your knees. Along with a Chelsea boot, it'll give you a girly and feminine but still super stylish look.

    Black Mary Jane platform shoes would be one choice or platform laced boots could be another. If you'd prefer a smaller shoe statement, wear ballet flats.
