Mid-calf socks under jeans for warmth, ankle with shorts. Unless you can pull off the high socks look which I have seen some people do.

ankle socks for all the time, higher ones for skiing.
I can't usually pull of the high socks thing, I only have on par of high ones that I'll rock occasionally.

I managed to not wear socks at all from April until early November. Yay.
But, usually ankle ones if I need to wear socks.
Usually no socks if I'm skiing or riding, though.

high for skiing. High also are cool when they have sick graphics. low have less material and don't pull on your leg hair.
