Okay. So, apparently tights are all the rage this season.
Well. I'm making them all the rage, because I think they are dang adorable.
Anway. Recommendations for GOOD tights? Like not that crappy "nylony" material, I want me some real bonafide cotton tights. Nice and snuggly warm and won't snag.
:D
Hit me up ladies.
I realllly need some in some insane pink. And grey. And off white. And purple.
Yeah.

I don't know any brands, but I have gotten some nice pairs in the past from The Gap and Nordstroms carries many brands all good quality.

in the past gap has put out some nice tights.
google dumped me off at a place called welovetights.com and they had some really rockin colors, but they were nylon/lycra microfiber. they would be more tolerable while its not really cold still...

I know in the olden days when tights were all the rage previously (ok maybe just with me back in '90) but anyway I used to buy Hue Tights from Macy's and Nordstroms. They were a great quality and you could buy all cotton or with some lycra in them, etc.
I had tights in ever color and stripes and diamond shapes, not to mention rainbow fishnets that I wore over black tights. i seriously could go on.

Ditto on this! I had tons of tights in the 90's and Hue was a great brand.

Love the Argyle tights at Sock Dreams!
I want tights so bad, but the whole pregnant thing is kinda going to ruin that for me this fall!
My other big thing right now is the leg warmers...something about leg warmers and sweat bands for my wrists are like security blankets for me.
I am so darn excited for the fall!

Dang. I was just by there yesterday.
Can you believe that was the first time I've been in a mall for about 4 months? I am so not a normal teenager.
I kept seeing shirts and I was like "Dude. Why would I buy a top for 30 dollars?". I mean I'd buy a top for thirty dollars at Anthro. But, that's Anthro, people.
Thrift stores do weird things to me. I was a little irriatated that cute dresses were 5 bucks at Savers. I go into thrift stores and have an epiphany when top are 4 dollars.
I need help.
And tights for that matter.

It should say "tops" are 4 dollars.
I'm use to buying super cheap clothes.
I don't like expensive thrift stores. They make me cross.
And I don't think I use epiphinay correctly. When I try to sound smart.... I sound stupid.
Crap.

I saw these at Kohls of all places. I usually avoid that store but lately I have been a little addicted to the Vera Wang collection. She makes some killer shoes.
So anyway, if you have a Kohls nearby, you can buy three pairs of Vera's tights/leggings and get one free (or something.)
The green looks cooler in person. :)
