MEET Isabelle Shee, a stunning golf influencer with over 295,000 Instagram followers.

The 28-year-old Californian has been dubbed ‘Sock Girl’ online due to her golf attire.

Her risqué outfits, however, have caused a stir in the stiff golfing community.

Because of her short skirts and knee-high accessories, some country clubs barred her from their courses.

However, through her company Inside Story Golf, she has packaged her own luxury golf socks that are made in a sustainable manner.

Who will have the last laugh?

Shee, whose sister Kat is also a golf enthusiast, has been given a hard time for her glam approach when it comes to what she wears when she plays a round.

She said: “My experience has been interesting, to say the least.

“I definitely am a more controversial golf figure as I don’t stick to the traditional wardrobe.

“I have been stared at, kicked out of country clubs for and chastised for wearing shorter skirts and long socks.

“For me, I love socks because in a world where it can be a bit conservative, such as at work or the golf course, socks can be one of the only accessories that can show a bit of flare and personality.”

Isabelle began wearing knee-high socks as her signature look when she was 13 years old.

She admitted that if she doesn’t think she looks good on the course, her performance suffers.

“There are days when I miss my alarm and have to rush to my tee time, make-up half done and clothes not matching, and will play absolutely awful solely because I wasn’t confident with my appearance,” she said.

“The truth was, nobody could tell the difference with my appearance except myself but my uncertainty was easily translated into my golf game.

“I definitely think that it is tougher for women when it comes to image.

“However, I don’t think it is unfair because sometimes it is self-induced as we tend to be harder on ourselves when it comes to our appearance compared to men.

“Looking stylish is very important to me in sport.”

“I am very thankful for some golf figures who are changing the game, such as Paige Spiranac and Tisha Abrea.
