If dressing nicely (in a no-shoes house), would you rather wear mismatched socks or have bare feet?

The other day, family was coming over and we all dressed semi-nice. I wore a blouse, cardigan and jeans. I was unable to find a matching pair of socks, so I put on a pair of mismatched color. My mom said it looked tacky (not dressed nicely) and that I should just take them off and have bare feet. I thought it was odd, but I took them off and left my feet bare. Would you rather wear mismatched socks or go barefoot?

    Neither looks appropriate.

    Your mother is right about the mismatched socks though - incredibly childish and tacky. It baffles me that you really couldn't find even one pair of socks that matched.

    Mismatched socks...for sure!!! It's not tacky...in my opinion...most independent thinkers would go with the mismatched socks. You are not alone in this. (I'm sorry you and your mom have differing opinions. I'm a mom and I absolutely had my kids grab matching thickness versus colors sometimes. =) But...I am very independent in my thoughts. I wish you the best. =)
