We're Women in Tight, TIGHT Tights!

This blog was inspired by my wardrobe choice today- or rather my shopping choices on Saturday and the fact that I can’t wait to wear the clothes that I buy.  In this case, the item in question is a pair of tights which I purchased for $39.

As we move into the cooler months you may be looking for a way to update your winter look while still keeping warm and saving some coin.  The easiest way: tights. Tights may be the perfect addition to your wardrobe this season with TV shows such as Gossip Girl making them a popular, accessible accessory in any woman’s wardrobe. 

Wear them with a long knit dress, chunky scarf and tall boots, with twill shorts and heeled loafers, with- and get this, this is the genius- your Summer dresses! Clothing that you’ve bought in summer which you think you’ll have to wait months to wear again, you can wear now!

The Golden Rule- please, please do not wear tights with short t-shirts where you can see crotch and views of your bum- there is simply nothing less flattering and it gives away way too many secrets.

Where to find them: you can find tights from wallet-friendly places such as Target and Supre, to more luxurious brands such as American Apparel, Urban Outfitters and Kirrily Johnston.  Some of my best picks for this Winter are below:

   

Serena and Blair in Gossip Girl- gossiping      

Chanel Two-toned (similar available from Urban Outfitters- $14)

American Apparel Navy Grid Pantyhose- $36

 

My tights today- Blue Juice $39

Urban Outfitters Pretty Polly Bold Tight- $14

Jonathon Aston Animal Tights- available online at http://www.mytights.com/ US $13.45

If you don’t think you can be too outrageous with your tight choices, try black opaque stockings which you can wear with just about everything- don't wear bright red stockings if you're not going to feel comfortable- remember, baby steps!

Yours Fashionably,

Nat xo
