You know what? It is really hard to take a picture of yourself in knee highs that doesn’t come off like a creepy camgirl shot. You can see that Miss Jem does not approve.
But I had no choice! I had to share these knee highs! Because not only are they gorgeous and hilarious and they make me so happy, but they are a symbol of friendship that warms my heart. A friend of mine has been going through a rough time, so a bunch of our friends and I got together to give her a “Care Bear Stare.” From all our different parts of the world we sent her pairs of socks so that she would have our love and support as she kept putting one foot in front of the other. It’s maybe my favorite gesture of love and friendship I’ve ever been a part of, so I had to buy an extra pair for myself so that I could remember how lucky I am to belong to a group of people like this.
