Your feet can start each day in December with a fresh pair of stylish socks as SOCKSHOP launch its new 2020 25 Days of Socks Advent Calendars.
SOCKSHOP kindly gifted us an advent calendar in exchange for this review, all opinions are our own and we may earn commission through some of the links in this page. Here’s what Holly from our team thought below.
“There are plenty of advent calendars on the market to choose from, everything from beer to cheese however I can honestly say I’ve never had a sock advent to count the days until Christmas, so I was certainly delighted to review SOCKSHOP 25 Days of Socks (Ladies) calendar.
Firstly, the midnight blue box is gorgeous, it has a fun festive design and the doors are sealed together with a dark blue bow – bang on trend with this years Pantone colour – Classic Blue. The advent gives away no clues (apart from the fact you’ll get socks obviously!) of what design and colours you’ll receive.
Inside, I loved the fun, festive designs on each box, everything from snowflakes to reindeer and mistletoe, my feet were itching with excitement!
Starting with day one (even though I really wanted to head straight to box number 25) a pair of light grey super soft and thick socks with a Winter Hare design greeted me, they were gorgeous and brought a smile to my face and I put them on straight away.
Moving onto box number 24 (Christmas Eve) which for me, is always a day where I wear a brand new comfy outfit to settle down to a day of mulled wine and mince pies, was a black pair of socks emblazoned with a fun mistletoe and bow design, my feet really did feel like Christmas was here.
I love the combination of socks and patterns SOCKSHOP has used throughout, from subtle dusty ice blue to Christmas tree green, however, Christmas day’s socks were my absolute favourite – I won’t tell you what they are but expect full-on festive cheer!
The socks are made from a mix 69% Viscose from Bamboo, 28% Polyester and 3% Elastane, and can be machine washed at 40 degrees and come in standard sizes of 4-8.
Ladies, if you’re looking for a pre-Christmas gift, then this is certainly one to treat yourself with, however, if like me, these won’t last until December as I’ll want to wear them right now.”
SOCKSHOP Advent Calendars will cost £59.99 each and you can purchase one here.
Who says we need to wait until December to open?…
