There are times when new fashion hits our shops but totally misses our interest. For most of us, tights were here to be ignored but as months went by they looked hotter. Now they are the craze.

In the sixties there were here and now they are back. Today tights are everywhere. From thin silks to thick knits, the styles, colours, and textures are diverse.

Tights have transformed from sports attire to hit every fashion column. However, people still shy away from them. The fact that they are worn by everyone from children to mothers can send a confusing message.

However this should not be a reason to absolutely shun them as they are an invention meant for all of us. Wearing tights is both comfortable and stylish.

Tights give warmth without forcing us to give up those flirty little dresses that we adore. It’s possible to give more coverage that would be considered scandalous without them on.

There’s intrigue and an alluring element in showing your legs without really showing them. Tights can be paired with shorts and above the knee skirts as it makes it all decently possible.

Try out knee high trench coats with a pair of coloured tights when getting ready for a night out and dress them up with sun dresses for lunch dates.

Boot and tights were meant to always make you look gorgeous so do try matching the up. Plain outfits will easily brighten up when you add up flashy tights.

Forget what anyone thinks about flashy colours and enjoy your personality as you embrace colour choices. Consider colours that are in right now blue, yellow, green, Gray, and of course the absolutely everyday colour black.

Tights are stylishly paired with closed flats while strapy sandals work as well. You can match them up with peep toes, and pumps to give a more mature look.

Did you know you can actually wear tights under a suit to work? Well it’s possible to take advantage of the fact that your boss might not know their difference with stockings.

The great thing about the tights is that they are underestimated and hence you will always get them at such a low price.

As the shops try to clear out what they don’t understand lets all fashionista out there know its time to collect and own some of the wonderful tights on sale across town.
