Bergies Cat Socks Review & Giveaway


It's pretty easy for anyone who walks into my home to instantly realize that I am cat obsessed. Pretty much anywhere you look there is kitty kitsch of some kind. The same holds true for my clothing. At any given moment I'm wearing my love for cats on my body, whether it's a cat t-shirt, cat purse or tote, cat hat or scarf, cat jewelry and kitty pajamas. One area of my wardrobe that has sadly been lacking a feline touch is my socks...until now.


I was recently contacted by the nice people at Bergies about reviewing their line of cat socks. As soon as I took a look at their website, the answer was a resounding yes. Bergies is an online one-stop sock shop - born in Brooklyn and now based out of New York’s Hudson Valley. Their socks come in all styles from no shows to thigh highs and everything in between. The shop's owner admits to always leaning towards cat patterns because she is a huge feline fan. Bergies values animal welfare as well: they are and always will remain a 100% vegan company.

Socks aren't just a way to keep your feet warm, they're an eclectic way to make a statement. And the statement that I want to makes is that I ADORE CATS!!! Take a look at the goodies that Bergies sent me:


Cats on Books Crews by Socksmith Seriously, it's like they created these socks just for me!!! I can't imagine a more purr-fect fashion statement for cat and book fanatics.

Tubular Cats Slipper Socks I love walking around the house in stocking feet, but on uncarpeted surfaces, it can be dangerous. These rainbow slipper socks feature non-slip grippers and are super comfy and warm.

Wild Cat Crews Laurel Burch...need I say more??? I adore her!!! I already leave the house most days sporting a Laurel Burch bag, so now I'm decked out top and bottom!

Chat Noir Knee Highs "Le Chat Noir" is one of my favorite pieces of art, and that famous black cat looks just spectacular on a pair of socks!


Looking at the socks the Bergies people picked out for me, it's like they actually know me and what I love! I could not be happier with what I received and I definitely will be shopping with them in the future.

Bergies has generously allowed me to offer one lucky winner a set of all 4 cat themed style socks. (US entries only, please.) Good luck!

How fun! The head peep has quite a collection of cat socks, but the elastic is starting to go in a lot of them because they're getting harder and harder to find. It's really exciting to know there's another source!
