Hi there-very nice picks my dear, love the Betsey Johnson look!

Unknown said...

Oh my gosh, I love every single pair of tights and leggings on this page!! I love the look of some wild leg colors with a simple black dress.

Diego R. Wyatt said...

The Alexander Wang and Ruffian leggings are my faves...so simple. But, I must say I love Betsey Johnson's leggings. It reminds me of what Dorothy from the Wizard of Oz would wear today.

I looove sequin leggings!!

MizzJ said...

Crazy designs, these are all so cool! I don't know if I could actually pull any of these off except the Lacoste version hehe.

Wanderlusting said...

I prefer the Ruffian, Dior and, yes, Zac Posen. They seems more subtle to me (comparitively speaking, of course). Then again, I'm not too brave with my tights - remember the snakeskin ones on my blog?

Yeah. Now everyone at work looks to see what kind of tights I wear :S

Wow, I love leggings and stockings but am so boring that I usually only stick to black opaque. I love all these ideas for alternatives! Thank you dear CC... xoxo

erika sorocco said...

I especially love the Anna Sui, Erin Fetherston, Zac Posen, Ruffian, and Barbie offerings. I want them right now. Though the Ruffian body stocking is somewhat calling my name.

Fashion Moment said...

Great! I like Erin Fetherston, Zac Posen, and fantastic Doo.Ri!

Rebecca Jane said...

there were SO many pairs of amazing tights at NY fashion week - I love your picks as well.

Seeker said...

Gorgeous tights, my dear.
They can really make an outfit.
And what about legswear for Spring is like this? I always have troubles with Spring legswear... never know what to wear, until the legs are with some tan. (And I hate my legs nude)

I love the cutout trend right now- especially on legs or shoes.

There are some really good examples of the cutout trend in the Who What Wear fashion closet- go to 'Shop The Closet' at WWW.WHOWHATWEAR.COM
