over-the-knee-socks

Any thoughts on over the knee socks? They're pretty cute and possibly a more comfortable option then wearing tights....Sadly, I'm still learning how to dress for LA (even though I've lived here nearly a year now!) and I'm always too hot. Maybe it's because of the rampant use of heat lamps when the weather dips below 70ยบ (Seriously, put a sweater on!). Also, is over the knee just a less skanky way of saying thigh high?

love them! Full tights can be too warm. Long socks make it easier to control how warm you want to be. "Thigh high" are nylons; "over the knee" are long socks. In fact, I call them "long socks" (see above). There is nothing skanky about them....if it's a choice between bare skin or long socks, you're covering more skin by wearing them.
