Fans of the beloved Mean Girls film written by Tina Fey will get a kick out of these sock styles inspired by the movie made by ASOS. The socks feature the ultimate girl clique of Regina, Karen and Gretchen strutting their stuff on a [pair of pastel pink socks](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/true-romance1).

These girly socks are ideal for fans of Mean Girls both new and old that want to add a bit of [pop culture to their wardrobe](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/beetlejuice-beetlejuice1). The socks feature a print of the Plastics squad from the original Mean Girls poster on the front with the words "On Wednesdays we wear pink" printed above in, of course, a bright pink hue. The reference is to how the Plastics exclusively wear rose colors on Wednesdays. The socks are made from a stretchy knit nylon.
