You Said: Yes to Textured Tights

We asked: Would you wear Textured Tights?
You said: Yes to Textured Tights, with a 73% to 27% vote.
Style tip? Textured tights are a great way to add flavor to an otherwise plain outfit. Especially if you like to dress in one (or a couple) colors head to toe, you’re going to want some visual variety in your wardrobe. A super simple way to get this visual variety is through texture. Pair your textured tights, for example, with a sleek pair of boots and a dress in a different fabric. Even if you’re dressing in one color from head to toe, the outfit still holds visual interest.
Next question: Sweaterdresses are a chic cold weather option, but they can also be tough to wear (especially if the sweater fabric is thin). Tell us, would you wear Sweaterdresses? Cast your vote on the sidebar!

Sigh. When I’m rich and famous (ha!) I’ll DEFINITELY be buying my textured tights from Wolford. But for now, gotta stick to Target!

I got a pair of small-sized fishnet style tights at Target– on sale for under $5.00. But I haven’t had the confidence to wear them…yet. Still trying to decide what to wear them with.
(I’m sure I’d snag or run the $46 tights in an hour anyway)

Fair point. I have to say, I’m a spiller and a snagger myself…so maybe I should go with the Target pair too!
Mimi, try the fishnet style tights with a knee length skirt and a feminine top. That way, you mix the sweet with the sexy – and it’s not too over the top.

This is very nice. I like the printed/textured tights because they show off little designs for your legs, unlike just having the color on your legs
