    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.

    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 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

    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.

    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
