Okay, back to business.
Today on Wearing The Trend we're going to be talking about tights, and I know what you're
thinking
"Tights for the winter time, oh my gosh, Rakhee. What a revolutionary idea."
And if you were thinking that, congratulations. You're brilliant, and I am a mind reader.
So, tights are actually super brilliant for the winter time.
Um, for these three reasons:
I'm going to give you three, I promise.
The first one is that it's really versatile.
So you can have coloured tights, printed tights, leopard-print tights, embellished tights.
There's just- the tights world is your oyster.
Number two: it's super cheap.
So whether you want to invest in a printed pair or leopard-print pair
they're really, really cheap so you can technically pick up both and it's fantastic.
Last thing is that it is-
I already said cheap, so I'm going to say, doubly cheap.
Because tights work really well with everything that's already in your closet.
So I love to wear a really loud pair of tights with a plain black dress,
um, just because it transforms kind of those staple pieces in your closet
and makes them look really fresh and really updated for the new season.
So today I'm going to show you how to do it.
So the first outfit we have here is a pair of coloured tights.
Now, I think coloured tights are fantastic because you can really pick a hue that you
really like.
So I always sort of lean more towards kind of maroons and blues and sort of moody colours,
so I picked those and just paired it with a plain black dress, pair of fancy shoes.
So it's a really bold choice and it just puts an extra spring in your step and it looks fantastic.
This second pair I have is a dotted pair, and from a distance it looks like polka dots
but if you look really closely they're little hearts.
Um, so it's just something that I think is just really sweet.
Um, this is kind of an option if you're a bit intimidated by the trend to pick something
that's a little bit subtle but still makes a statement.
The last pair I have, I think, is perhaps a little bit more daring.
Now I know that when I was younger I thought that like fishnet tights was just like the
epitome of kind of like
um, I don't know like, this kind of like glamorous, sexy woman and now I realize that you kind
of traverse the line between kind of really glamorous and also really tacky.
So I find that this pair just kind of walks that line really well, gives you a bit of
edge, really dresses up a plain black dress
um, and makes you kind of feel really cool.
So, with tights, girls, remember that you have a whole host of options available to
you.
Pick something that you feel comfortable with, and I would say, pair it with you know a plain
black dress or a plain navy dress, something really simple
because you want the focus to be on the statement tights.
