Towie’s Lydia teams up with Zoe Hardman in new stay safe in the sun campaign!

Monday, July 16th, 2012

After pictured in Dubai in May with bad burns, it seems Towie’s Lydia Bright has learnt her lesson and can now be seen promoting safety in the sun.
Known for her pale complexion, Lydia was seen with red burns she described as painful, and now on a mission to prevent other girls from feeling the same pain, she has joined Zoe Hardman on the ‘flag it’ campaign.
In the campaign photos, Lydia can be seen sporting similar burns to those of the ones she suffered earlier this year, whilst Zoe plays the part of the friend who didn’t protect her friend. The campaign aims to promote the idea of friends looking out for each other in the sun to avoid skin damage.
The campaign is a great idea with the upcoming summer months; unprotected sun exposure is a serious issue that is often not addressed as much as it should be, and with the lovely Lydia fronting the campaign it makes it all the more appealing!
Here at Tightsplease, whilst we love the idea of being able to sunbathe, sometimes we just don’t have the time! So with no potential damage to our skin, we’re stocking up on our revolutionary fake tan tights. Simply pop the tights on, massage the legs for 10 minutes and then whip them off to reveal bronzed legs- what could be better? Get yours here at tightsplease.
But do remember, if you see potential sunburn- ‘flag it’ up!
Happy holidays :)

Aquatic Love Affair

Friday, April 27th, 2012

The aquatic love affair trend was present everywhere in Paris spring collection catwalks. Versace, Mary Katrantzou, Stella McCartney, Chanel and Pucci all look to our seas for inspiration this season.

This fascination with the depths of our mysterious oceans reached its climax during the Chanel show; Florence Welch emerged from a giant sea shell to perform ‘What the water gave me’. Models were sent down the run way in elbow length white dresses with pearl belts and McQueen created a coral sculptured dress that transported you to an underwater world! We loved it!

Falke Shelina 12 Tights

This trend comes as we celebrate the 100th Anniversary of the Titanic with the feature film being released in 3D! Everyone has gone ocean mad so at Tights Please we have adopted the trend to fit your legwear. We have shiny silver FALKE tights for £10.48, Pamela Mann fishnet tights £8.48 and Mary and Charnos Almost Opaque silver tights in £9.98 that are perfect for this trend.

Check out our Pintrest underwater trend board for inspiration images and the tights that fit well with the trend.  Starfish rings and tropical fish prints are now starting to flood our high streets so get in on the trend quick. See our underwater inspiration page here for all the styles in this trend.

 

The New Suspenders!

Wednesday, April 18th, 2012

The popularity of the suspender tights seems to be never ending with celebrities such as Rihanna, Paris Hilton and Jessie J all wearing them and they’ve been best sellers for Tights Please ever since they launched in 2009.

Now it’s time for the suspender trend to evolve into something more delicate and pretty but still equally as sexy! Hosiery brands everywhere have caught on to the new trend of over the knee style tights which have come from the idea of the suspender style. We love over the knee tights and are deeming these the new must-have tights this season!

We love the ivory and white lace styles from the Jonathan Aston collection and also the Henry Holland True Fishnet Suspender Tights which are going to be big with this season’s trends.

April Showers?

Wednesday, April 4th, 2012

So in the space of a week, we’ve gone from having glorious sunshine, to blizzardous snow!

This absurd weather has got us all confused and i was just getting used to the idea of spring sunshine and picnics in the park wearing ankle socks and bare legs when i suddenly wake up to horrendous snow wind and rain! Bank holiday is coming up and instead of having the first long weekend in the sun, it seems we’ll be spending it wrapped up or inside. Not ideal!

It’s time to get rummaging in that hosiery drawer and looking for some cosy opaques or ribbed cable knit tights to keep you warm through this cold spurt.

 pretty polly fleecy opaque tights 

Underestimating how cold and wet it was today, i was very much unprepared for the weather outside, spending most of the day regretting my outfit choice. However, the rest of the week i’ll be getting out the favourite Pretty Polly Fleecy Opaques and the Ariston Cotton Sheen 120 Tights to make sure my legs and toes are never as cold as today!

I never thought i would be writing these recommendations in April, however needs must so check out the winter tights page for a whole selection of tights that will get you through these April showers.
