Live it in Leggings!

Friday, September 18th, 2009

Once a fad a few years ago, no-one knew the extent of the popularity leggings would bring or how long they would remain in our wardrobe as a must haKiama leggings 60 denierve product but four years they are still going strong. A question has to be raised, how do they do it? What makes every girl in the country own a pair? And how long will they keep appearing in shops?
I remember the first time I saw a pair, walking onto the shop-floor for my shift at my Saturday job and there they were lying on the table at the front of the shop with a huge woolly jumper. (I had of course seen them in numerous magazines and on all the celebs, but didn’t actually think people would wear them) Suddenly vivid memories of my terrible dress sense as a child came back to me, the Mickey Mouse ski pants have come back to haunt me only this time they were black. As I casually walked past I swore to myself I would never own or wear a pair as long as I live.. I couldn’t have been more wrong!!
T- 70 Den Footless tights Flo Redhey are now a part of my life as much as my fav pair of skinny jeans or little black dress. I have them in different styles colours and patterns but most importantly in black. Who could have known the impact of them and how they influenced how we dressed for years to come? Seriously is there any other garment that is easier, more comfortable as well as stylish to wear with just about anything for any occasion?
With all this in mind, the autumn/winter trends for this season show no sign of leggings disappearing; in fact it’s the complete opposite. New styles, patterns and colours are huge this season with help from the fantastic 80’s trend that is set to rock us all the way through to 2010!
Now is the time to re-invest in a new pair whether wet look, plain, patterned or coloured, lets here it for our ultimate staple!

Top 10 Tights!!

Wednesday, September 16th, 2009

Have a MAJOR shopping addiction but hardly a penny to spend on it?

Yeah, you’re like me! I am pained by prices on Net_A_Porter as I strive to recreate this week’s ‘LOOK’. However their is an answer. The arrival of Chanel’s Two Tones, McQueen’s stripes and Henry Holland’s Mock Stocks has created a bit of drama in the fashion world! Parading your pins in the most radical embellished, coloured prints seems to be the way ahead in terms of getting you noticed as the hot tot this winter! Most importantly it’s a lot cheaper way of updating your transitional wardrobe. Listed below are my favourites, best sellers and ones to watch in future months.

I have adapted my wardrobe and shopping habits for the better… Have a look and give it a go!FMS mini spot

Lavish and Loud!!

Monday, September 14th, 2009

Fashion hosiery is set to see one of its biggest seasons yet with designers and celebrities combined raising the profile. The development of different styles, colours, shapes and patterns seem to have moved into overdrive ready for 2010. Fashion in general seems to have taken a new Sci-Fi twist with heavily embellished garments combined with platform shoes that seem to have no limit. It’s no wonder hosiery has found its feet in the new era showing no sign of slowing.Jewel1-004
Henry Holland for example, has jumped into the limelight with his recreation of the modern day stocking, sending people wild for creativity and innovation. Mui Mui’s Autumn/winter collection featured huge arrays of wild florals and lace hosiery designs that never failed to turn heads in terms of originality. Even Channel stunned us by captivating a contemporary twist on the much traditional inspired collection.
This all comes around with the rise of louder personalities publicised in the media. Lady GaGa and Lilly Alan are defiantly two faces who are not ashamed to show the world their colourful personality. And why should they be?
With all this in mind, it suggests to me that fashion, music and personalities are becoming brighter, louder and individual. Experiment with your style for the new season and let Tights Please inspire you through to winter!
