Why can't I get the the icons to center using flexbox?

Here is the code. The icons are right aligned for some reason. Any suggestions? Thanks!

CSS

.flex-social { display: -webkit-flex; display: flex; -webkit-flex-direction: row flex-direction: row; -webkit-align-items: center; align-items: center; -webkit-justify-content: space-around; justify-content: space-around; list-style: none;

}

.social-item img{ padding-bottom: 3em; width: 3em; height: 3em; }

HTML

<ul div class="flex-social">

<li class="social-item"><a href="http://twitter.com/RachelWebDev"><img src="img/twitter.svg" alt="Twitter Logo" class="social-icon"></a></li>

<li class="social-item"><a href="http://github.com/millerrach"><img src="img/github.svg" alt="Github Logo" class="social-icon"></a></li>

<li class="social-item"><a href="http://www.linkedin.com/in/rachelwebdev"><img src="img/linkedin.svg" alt="linkedin Logo" class="social-icon"></a></li>

</ul>
