Now that it's tights weather, or getting there, I thought I'd share two of my fave sites for fab tights. This search was inspired by a trip to Target, where it seems they only believe in BLACK!
The first site, called We Love Colors, has over 45 colors of both tights and fishnets, and they come in plus sizes as well! They also have patterned tights and knee-his! Here's one of the other hues they offer -- eggplant is a big color story this season.
Of course, they have subtler colors like maroon and gray, if that's your thing.
Their diamond and checkerboard tights also come in 44 colors:
With these two sites, there's no excuse for a boring leg!
These wild-colored-and-patterned tights would look great with a simple trapeze dress and minimal accessories. Or with tall boots.
Another great legwear site is SockDreams. They carry an astounding array of tights, over-the-knee socks, striped and crocheted styles, and an enormous variety of unusual socks I haven't seen anywhere else.
I would say that Sock Dreams is a site truly for the sock-obsessed.
For instance, here are some striped tights guaranteed to slim your legs:
And some slouch socks measuring 100 inches -- very Japanese-inspired. They're called Super-Longs.
In fact, they also have them in a 200-inch version of these very high-fashion tights!
For those who believe that being in fashion involves not just following the crowd but taking risks and developing your own style, these sites are great resources! --Belissa
Yay! I love that tights are so in style. Now I can stock up, so that when they go out of style, I'll still have plenty!!!!
