Statement Socks: Put Your Best Foot Forward

Since their inception in Ancient Egypt, socks have spent the best part of two millennia on a turbulent journey to ultimately land at the bottom of, and likely lose their other half in, your washing machine. An often overlooked but no less integral part of any outfit, socks are perhaps the easiest way to elevate an otherwise underwhelming look. Joe Cool’s Statement Socks offer an excellent opportunity for you to express your personality in a way that can be simultaneously understated and flashy, after-all, socks pack a surprisingly big punch, when considered on their own stylistic merit.

Its all about texture with our flora and fauna sock lines. Our sheer collection is adorned in tropical embroidery that is eclectic yet impossibly chic. Embossed floral finishes distinguish themselves from the traditional ribbed and knitted textures, introducing a new textural element to jazz up your footwear. Darling depictions of an enchanting forest & a woodland scene can be found on several of Joe Cool’s statement socks, naturally exuding an idyllic essence.

Arty ankles will adore our flowery Frida or perfectly pastiche pair of Warhol inspired socks. Make the ultimate statement in our hot lips print, sure to keep your name in everyone’s mouth! For dog lovers: A dapper dachshund duo in tiffany blue or a plucky chocolate pair patterned in pug. Geometric prints offer a strikingly sophisticated take on statement sock dressing whilst graphic cow print and fabulous flocks of sheep will result in head-turning hooves. Foodie favourites include our classic wasabi green pair decorated in a sushi motif, the gorgeously gaudy banana print and our fried egg pair, ideal for the eggcentrics of the world.

Statement socks are an easy and inexpensive indulgence that can instantly add character to your wardrobe. As with everything Joe Cool – these socks were made to be seen and our ostentatious offerings leave no excuse for a sub-par sock game. So, what are you waiting for? Pick yours up before they’re all gone!

Rabbits make a perfect accessory to bring joy for Spring!

rabbits and flowers

Rabbits or bunnies are real harbingers of Spring and Easter. This year, why not celebrate the season with some interesting accessories. Rabbits and hares are delightful and enigmatic creatures. It is no surprise that they have played numerous roles in countless stories, movies and nursery rhythms. From books such as Beatrix Potter’s 19th century classic, ‘Peter Rabbit’ , ‘The Velveteen rabbit’ and the white rabbit in ‘Alice in Wonderland’ to the irresistible Roger Rabbit in the movie, ‘Who framed Roger Rabbit’ or Thumper who stars in the beloved Disney film, ‘Bambi’, this animal has a distinguished history in literature and film. There is an equally diverse range of rabbit characters here at Joe Cool. The enamel pin brooch sets featured are straight out of a story book while ‘carrot bunny’ earrings make an unusual ‘mismatched’ pair. A tiny enamel stud earring in a choice of black, white, grey or pink is the most perfect encapsulation. In contrast, a large grey flocked rabbit with its embroidered detail and twinkly red eye makes a striking statement piece. Pink rabbit with scarf is yet another take in padded textile.

Rabbits of many different persuasions adorn our current most popular accessory – socks! ‘Rabbit warren’ is a lovely tree green sock with a sedate sitting white rabbit design, ‘sunshine bunnies’ is a more crazy design on bright yellow and ‘animal treats’ is a happy cartoon bunny with carrot pattern. There are rabbit socks with stripes or hearts and a cute ‘sheer’ bunny sock in pink.

More spring things, rabbits and hares included, can be found throughout the collections. Ducks are always an Easter favourite and new socks in mauve are peppered with these delightful water birds. ‘Quackers’ is the name of a delightful duck sock and Rubber duck is a charming watery scene.

Finally, kerchiefs…rabbits again!

Vintage floral – romantic flower accessories

Vintage floral jewellery and accessories have a nostalgic vibe as we move into the Autumn months of the year. Check out our beautiful handmade brooches, rings and earrings. Real flowers are pressed then carefully encased in an epoxy clear resin with tiny beads and sparkles. These romantic accessories draw on ideas dating from an earlier era. Classic Viola, and other traditional delicate sprigs hark back to Victorian and even Elizabethan times whilst remaining utterly timeless.

The same technique is used to produce gorgeous ‘vintage floral’ cat brooches. Walking cat,sitting cat,stretching cat and playful cat are a delightful little collection for you to choose from, again with delicate, pretty blossom encased in clear resin. All are handmade making each brooch absolutely unique.

One of the hottest accessories around right now is ( yes, you’ve guessed it!) the face mask. We have an ever growing selection of washable masks to team with your fashion outfits. One of the latest new introductions is the lovely vintage floral mask featured. This mask like all our range is made from 100% cotton and lined in fine white. The design of Roses, Peonies and Hydrangea on a black background has a classic vintage floral feel. With matching black adjustable elastics it is a classy choice for everyday or special occasion. other new vintage floral designs include the pretty soft yellow ‘soft blossom’. Pink and lilac sprigs of apple blossom against a gentle yellow with lilac elastic makes for the most charming of floral designs. A second blossom option is set on a deep blue ground making a lovely contrast.

More fabulous flowers can be found throughout the mask collection. A strong Japanese theme is evident in ‘Kimono patch’, now available in three beautiful colour choices. There is also ‘gilded kimono print’, a pretty floral option in a range of colour options and also, ‘Indigo Japanese knot’ and ‘discs’, and ‘waves’- popular choices for men and women alike. So if you want floral, or Japanese nature themes then look no further.
