Your socks don’t match….cool
I heard about this company called Little Miss Matched from Seth Godin’s blog. What a cool and innovative idea. Mismatching clothes, on purpose. The clothes like socks, for instance, come in a three pack and they are they are usually either complimentary colors or patterns, but neither sock is identical.
Apparently, teenage girls are going nuts over this, so you’re about to start seeing their stuff popping up all over the place as it’s an emerging trend that big retailers don’t want to get left behind on.
Knowing this, I wish that I had jumped on this trend in college when I was poor and fashion-brilliant. I wore mismatching clothes all the time. In fact, I could have started a company that sold underwear with holes in them. Hole-y Underwear. I certainly had enough inventory to get started.

I overheard a woman comment about her philosophy on socks that disappear in the dryer. She said when she found a single sock in the dryer, she would say, “Oh, look. I have a new sock.” I never was that optomistic. I’d still like to know where in the world those missing socks go. One day we are going to find a mountain of socks in the junkyard and no one will know how they got there.
