Having to leave summer behind can be a bit depressing, especially because low temperatures mean putting away those cute airy dresses and take out the thick denim out of the bottom drawer, but before you pout and go on strike with your wardrobe (and the weather) we are going to talk about a little item that allows you to stay in a close relationship with your summer skirts and spring dresses: tights.
Tights are incredibly versatile, so whether it be black tights, coloured tights or anything else, such as stockings, hold ups or trendy leggings, you’re bound to be able to create a wardrobe that suits your own personal style as well as making sure it fits in with other popular trends you might see in the magazines. Pick some hosiery you absolutely love and something with a little passion inside it and you’ll find any outfit or ensemble you choose will simply come to life before your very eyes.
Black is back
Why is it that, every year, black tights are in? Simple, they’re the most versatile and classic looking legwear out there. They suit any and every occasion, casual or formal, with friends or colleges. It doesn’t matter what you are wearing black for, it’s a perfect choice and you know it’ll go down a treat.
The only time people shy away from the black is at the height of summer. It’s often too hot so something and darker shades are hotter and more insulated. This makes black tights a less than perfect choice for autumn. So when autumn starts to unfurl and the heat slowly goes away, they become an extra popularity kind of legwear, something you’ve probably missed dearly.
Layers, layers, layers…
The best thing about tights is layering like a pro. There should be a school for layering, serious, practiced right it can make 1 wardrobe transform into 3 instantly. If the temperature is scaring you away from that shift dress: layer your tights!
Play with colors
Autumn is still a good friend of color, but balance it out. Red, burgundy, and of course, the classic brown are all the right types of colored tights for autumn. They are all fine choices that really blend into the world around you and they add warmth and richness that really is needed as it starts to get a little nippy. The weather may be getting chillier, but with such a rich tapestry of color around you, it’s the perfect chance to use colored tights to create a cozy and welcoming outfit.
Inspired by nature
Pick something like a floral pattern to go with your outfit. This is not only a classic choice for all fashion lovers, but it’s a great opportunity to bring in something that’s on people’s minds each day, the gorgeous burning leaves and other foliage that makes the countryside around them come to life.
