Socks for You

Seasonal Attire Dementia — are you a victim?

S.A.D. afflicts thousands of women every spring. The scenario: The temperature creeps up past 50 degrees, which seems like a great excuse to give your Uggs the boot and take those new Havaianas for a test run.

Hold up, sister. It’s not that warm yet. A better choice? Dosty rugby socks. Available in color combos like coral/pale pink and apple green/aluminum, they work that sexy-sportswear thing (but not in a trashy “my washing machine must have accidentally shrunk this Knicks jersey into a minidress” way). Dress them down with sneakers or flip-flops or take them out on the town with heels. But do wear them.

Because S.A.D. can lead to more serious disorders, like M.A.D. (Mohair in August Disorder), M.M.S. (Midwinter Midriff Syndrome), and, most perilous of all, W.A.L.D.M. (White After Labor Day Mania).

Then you’re really in trouble.
