So nice tights and dresses... I would buy most of them! :P

Laura in Paris said...

I had a pair of colorful patterned tights a friend of my mother had brought me from Paris ... in 1970 ... I loved them, but people would stare at me at parties, at that time, colorful prints were not the trend in Chicago! Glad to see they're back.

Anika said...

Great minds think alike (I was thinking of doing a tights post too :). I'm more enamoured with the wide range of uber cool, eclectic, tights available these days!

Still crushing on the Rodarte ones though, but will have to make do with a New Zealand imitation of the Rodartes.

Have a lovely weekend, gorgeous
