I don't know why, but in spite of being a life-long sock proponent, I've recently found that it's much easier to just get dressed and put on my slippers sans socks. Maybe I'm lazy, maybe socks are too restricting, either way I love feeling the breeze on my feet. I now where socks only on a casual basis.
During the summer I wear nothing but sandals except at work. Only at work or during the winter do I wear socks.
I hate socks unless its winter... In the months where there is no snow on the ground Im usually barefoot or in sandles (where shoes are required)
