When I was at school, we had a strict dress code of black everything with a white shirt - they even specified how high the heels could be, the colour of our hair, our jewellery, make up, etc. There was only one area they forgot to put in the handbook: our socks! So, we rebelled in the only way we could with colourful and funky socks and since then I have refused to let a plain sock ever repress my foot!
