My first encounter of the leggy kind was in my teens.
I walked into a Victoria Secrets store and saw an array of stockings. Running my hand through the super sheer micro knit stocking, my love affair began.
I bought the stockings that cost a bomb for a university student and brought it home.
Wondering when I was going to wear them, I tucked them safely away in the
lingerie drawer where it lay ever since.
Since then, I have added a assortment of tights, leggings and stockings to my collection.
At that time, tights to me were a way to dress up my autumn wardrobe for just when the weather is transitioning. Depending on the weather condition, there are tights for all seasons. You can continue to wear the summer skirts with tights for warmth. Leggings were for under long t-shirts to lessen unsightly bulk and for modesty.
There weren't that many designs back then and only your basic colours were available.
Now, the runways are jammed packed with tights and leggings of all kinds.
I love it!
Fashion tights really dress up/down an outfit.
They also come in a variety of colours, textures, patterns and prints. Affordable and easy on the eye, it is a wardrobe essential.
The best thing is that you don't have to have great legs to wear tights!
Tights with the right print can have a slimming effect. It also helps to cover scars from mosquito bites or a skin condition.
Small in size and easy to store, you can give your busting wardrobe a well deserved break!
It also help keep the wobbles to a minimum by giving support in essential areas!
Be warned that you do need to shave your legs when wearing thinner stockings or paler colours.
Leg stubble DOES poke through.
