These metallic socks are more like jewelry |

| Marki Williams/NYT Wirecutter |
These dazzling silk-blend socks are pretty much perfect party attire, if you ask us. They’re dressy, festive, and bright (think: fluorescent pink, sapphire blue, space-age silver.) But don’t be fooled by all the glitz — they’re actually quite comfortable, smooth, and airy. Are they, as our experts put it, “diabolically expensive”? Yes. But a little sparkle can go a long way.
They’d look pretty cute peeking out of a stocking, too→
