Dressing a toddler girl in her Christmas Day dress for the family photos leaves one decision, the socks. You want white, a ruffle trim that suits a dress and a sole with grips for the floor between the photo spot and the dinner table. Our Baby Ruffle Socks, 6-Pack cover all three. This guide takes the color and sizes, the ruffle, the grips, the fabric and the spare pairs in turn, then gives a recommendation.
White Socks for the Christmas Photos
White is one of four colors in the pack, alongside Pastel, Rainbow and Pastel Pink. Choose it when you want the socks to sit with the dress rather than stand out in the photo.
Sizes run 6-12 Months, 1-3 Years and 3-5 Years, depending on color. Confirm the size listed for White before the day, so the socks are in the house when you start dressing.
Ruffle Trim Under the Dress
Each pair has a frilly ruffle edge, which gives a dressier look. Dresses, bloomers and little shoes are the pairings we have in mind, so a Christmas dress is a likely match.
The ruffle may not suit every outfit. Hold a pair against the dress the day before and see whether the two sit well together.
Non-Slip Grips From the Photo to the Dinner Table
The sole carries non-slip grips, and they give traction for crawling and first steps. Between the photo spot and the dinner table on Christmas Day, the sole is the part that meets the floor, and the grips are on it for every step.
Put the socks on when you put on the dress. The grips are then already on her feet before the photos start and before she heads for the table.
Fabric That Stretches Through the Day
The blend is 75% organic cotton, 23% polyester and 2% spandex. It is breathable and stretchy, so the socks give a little with her as she sits for the photos and moves again.
The blend is not 100% cotton. If you want to know how the fabric feels, run a pair through your fingers when it arrives, before Christmas morning.
A Spare Pair for the Day
A pack includes 6 pairs. One goes on for the photos, and the rest are ready for the days after.
If a pair needs changing between the photos and the dinner table, the spare is already to hand. When the photos happen at a relative's house, pack the spare pair beside the dress.
Final Thoughts on Christmas Photo Socks
The deciding variable is the dress. If its style pairs well with a frilly edge, white ruffle socks with grips are a sound default for the photos and the meal that follows. Check the size listed for White first, then hold a pair against the dress.
