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.

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.

Beat The Winter Freeze!

Thursday, February 9th, 2012

The last week has been unbearably cold all over the UK, and with everywhere enduring snow, frost and ice there’s only one thing that’s been getting me through the cold mornings, and that’s my fleecy tights!

The Pretty Polly Fleecy Opaque Tights are a must-have during this winter weather and i personally recommend as they’re just so soft inside! Not only do they feel luxurious on your legs, but they’ll keep you snug through the coldest temperatures.

If you’re looking for something warm, but more exciting than black opaques, you should try the Falke Soft Merino Tights and the Falke Soft Merino Rib tights which both come in a gorgeous selection of this season’s colours and have a high wool content which will guarantee warmth to your legs! The best thing about these tights is that they’re now 40% off! Falke are an excellent high quality brand that is well worth investing in but sometimes a little expensive, and now they’re even more affordable at these prices!

There are loads more winter tights on offer too!

Beautiful Tights for the Coldest Weather

Thursday, December 29th, 2011

This week, i have major post-Christmas blues after spending a fabulous week in the snow with my family! Despite blizzards and more snow than they’ve seen in years in the Alps, i made sure my legs looked fabulous at all times, and each evening would don a pair of my favourite tights from this season…

These Pamela Mann studded tights are one of my favourite purchases, and they were perfect and festive with little silver studs on. Can’t get enough of these!

I also took along my trusty Wolford Opaque 70 tights, which are my favourite pair of black opaques, and everyone needs at least one really nice pair in their drawer! I’d definitely recommend these soft, luxurious tights that turned out to be warmer than expected in minus temperatures!

Of course it wouldn’t be Christmas without some gold, and so inspired by Fearne Cotton’s gold tights, i partied wearing these Falke Luminance tights in Brass, which weren’t as warm as opaques but looked fabulous so i didn’t mind. These are so gorgeous and make the perfect party tights for seeing in the New Year!

Now i just have to decide what tights i’ll be choosing to wear for Saturday night.

What will you guys be wearing for New Year’s Eve?

Let me know which tights you love!
