Photo Phrenzy!

Jess — Thu, 11 Apr 2013 23:08:57 +0000

In addition to all the pictures we’ve been taking of this spring’s new items, we’ve been doing photo shoots all over town!

We got to hang out with the supremely rad folks over at Periscope Studio…

We were graced with a visit from a traveling Latanya, blogger extraordinaire behind Sprinkles and Booze…

We met a sweet calico with Meghan Sinott from Filmed By Bike…

Soon, we’ll be shooting the lovely Karol Collymore, newly-appointed head of the Equity Foundation, and her partner Shaley in their BRIDE Knee Highs…

If you’re local, be sure to pick up the Portland Mercury‘s annual Southeast Neighborhood Guide in May, and keep an eye out for our socks gallivanting around Sunnyside Piazza!

And we KNOW we’re going to have a blast snapping pictures of the devastating derby dames of RCR! We Dreamers love our derby girls almost as much as derby girls love socks…

Stay tuned!

Marching along…

Jess — Wed, 06 Mar 2013 21:47:06 +0000

We’re back from ECCC after an absolutely smashing weekend! We’ve still got some leftover stickers that we’d whipped up to fit the theme, so if you’d like one of these geeky gals, just ask in your next order’s notes!

Want to match our logo’s legs? Check out our Green Knees in black!

We’ll have a couple NEW sticker designs coming in the next few weeks, so stay tuned…

Last Call for a bit of Leg Avenue!

Jess — Fri, 18 Jan 2013 00:00:58 +0000

We are zapping a number of Leg Avenue styles to make room on our shelves for LA’s newest pretties,
so get ‘em while they’re hot! Once they’re gone, they’re gone for good…

Dreamers in Double-Time

Jess — Thu, 27 Dec 2012 00:01:29 +0000

Watch as our speedy sock faeries package your holiday orders! We really do move almost this fast through December… Almost! ♥

Holiday Shipping

Jess — Sat, 08 Dec 2012 00:21:15 +0000

Holiday deadlines are approaching faster than a sled down a snowy hill, but don’t panic! We’re here to help you get your gifts shipped as efficiently as possible.

Please keep in mind that December is by far the busiest time of year for both Sock Dreams and USPS. We always do our best to get all orders out the door within 24 hours, but because the post office is also being flooded with mail from around the world, shipping times WILL increase the further we get into December. The simple trick here is to place your order early and select the right shipping method for your needs.

If you’re shipping within the U.S. and hoping for an order to arrive by December 24th, our free first-class shipping should be speedy enough to cover you through December 18th.

Priority shipping gives you an extra day or so of wiggle room; you can safely order with Priority through December 19th for delivery by the 24th.

By December 20th, we highly recommend that you opt for 2-Day Express if you want to be absolutely sure that the package will be delivered by the 24th.

At this point in the season, our international customers will want to select Priority or Express International shipping for all orders with a holiday due date. Unfortunately, we cannot control how long Customs may hold on to an order during inspection, but placing your order with Priority/Express International shipping can often expedite the package’s transit through Customs.

Even slightly belated gifts will still be appreciated, so don’t let tricky shipping times ruin the fun and joy of your holidays. And remember– if you’re down to the wire and you’ve completely run out of time to ship anything, there’s always our e-gift cards, which are emailed to your recipient immediately!

More information about our shipping options can always be found on our shipping information page, and we encourage you to contact us at any time with questions about shipping, gift orders, or anything else!

Costume contest!

Jess — Thu, 25 Oct 2012 18:02:17 +0000

We’re thrilled to be hosting a Halloween costume contest on Tumblr this year! Show us your spookiest, kookiest costumes using Sock Dreams socks, and if we love your picture the best, you’ll win one of three gift cards.

You don’t even need to have a Tumblr account to submit your photos, so this contest is open to every single sockster. If you have any questions, please email us, and we’ll be happy to help. We’ll be accepting submissions until 11:59 PM on November 3rd. Please be sure to click through to see the details and guidelines for submitting content, and have fun! ♥

Six Years of Dreamer Pride

Jess — Thu, 14 Jun 2012 20:03:32 +0000

For six years, Sock Dreams has been both a sponsor and a vendor at Portland’s annual Pride NW. This year, we’ll be coming out in a whole new way: we’ll finally be marching in the big parade! Many of us Dreamers are shy, elusive creatures, preferring to dream behind the scenes and only show our feet and legs, so we’ve only watched from the sidelines– until now. We’ll be joined by many of our local comrades-in-sock, so you might just see someone you know, or you might even recognize some legs from our website and social media. When you see us pass by, cheer as loudly as you can and show us your sock pride!

If you’re looking for our booth, be aware that it’s in a slightly different place than last year, now at H-1 and H-7. Click the image for big:

Our booth will be well-stocked with rainbows, fluff, glitter, and fur, so stop by and pick up some flair! We’ll be set up to sell on both Saturday and Sunday, 12 – 6 PM.

We’ll have another fun Pride surprise for you on Friday, so stay tuned to the blog! Until then, take a look back at a recap of our booth activity from Pride 2011, grab your rainbow socks, and we’ll see you this weekend! ♥
