Wardrobe Wednesday- Smart Wool Socks

I know I'm never going to hear the end of this one from my mom because I'm featuring something she gave to me on my blog, and she'll get the biggest kick out of it and never let me forget it, but here goes anyway.

Earlier this month when we went to Minneapolis, my mom handed me a bag while we were having breakfast and said, "I know it's a little late, but here's your birthday present from me. I bought it on my trip to Seattle... but actually I could have bought it here at home... anyhow, just open the bag!"

Inside were three pairs of socks.

Mom: Look, Honey, they're SmartWool!!!!
Me: Oh..... *confused look* As opposed to dumb wool?

Well, after wearing pretty much nothing else on my feet for the last month, I can say that those 3 pairs of socks were one of the best gifts she's ever given me. Who knew that socks would be so enjoyable? SmartWool socks don't itch against your skin and aren't big and bulky like regular dumb wool socks. They are warm and soft and beautiful and can be washed and dried right along with other laundry, and keep your feet dry, and do something super sneaky with sweaty feet that makes the sweat virtually disappear and make your feet not stink. Basically, they're magical, and I love them. I especially love this pair because they go all the way up to my knees, keeping my legs extra warm during the winter.
