During a press conference with Justin Trudeau at Farmleigh House, Dublin, Irish Taoiseach Leo Varadkar sported a rather fetching pair of novelty socks peppered with mounties and maple leaves. I see what you did there, Varadkar.

Trudeau was spotted wearing a pair of stripy socks, which -- granted -- did match his suit. But, is that really good enough?

Varadkar, the newly-crowned King of Socks, was keen to show off his delightful socks, as he presented Trudeau with a pair of Irish socks and an Ireland rugby shirt. A subtle hint to step up your game, Trudeau?
