These Eyeball Socks Silently Stare Out of Your Shoes

— September 24, 2012 — Fashion
Spook your friends with these creepy eyeball socks that make for fun footwear. These socks come in an ankle length style, meaning they silently peak out from your shoes, literally, without making too loud of a statement.

This freaky find features a pattern of giant eyeballs that stand out against the black background and have vein detailing for that maximum gross factor. The hot pink detailing on the toes and elastic make these socks stand out and be more girly than one would normally expect from such a gruesome design.

These eyeball socks would look great sticking just slightly out from sneakers while wearing your favorite pair of shorts for a laid-back punk look, or try wearing them with a casual skirt if you prefer a fun mix of funky and feminine attire.
