Tight Way to Wear Tights

Personally, I can’t pull off a look with tights to save my life. I've tried and repeatedly reminded that it is not my strength. You may have better luck than me however which is why I bring you...(drumroll please)...the TIGHTS edition! Hold on to your hats, we're trying a couple things out today!

Tights with shorts!
Zooey manages to make this look like she threw it together and yet look absolutely adorable. The trick? Despite black tights, she works a pair of navy shorts with brass details to differentiate the tights from the shorts, and adds a pale shirt in a light color with cute detailing to add some contrast.



In a different look, Zooey has paired black tights with black shorts and black heels giving her the look of really long legs. Personally, I find it a little too dark but it looks great all the same.



Tights with skirts!
A great way to keep your legs warm in a short skirt, provide a little contrast, or just do something different. Each of these ways is unique and provides a fresh take on the classic blouse and shirt look.





Tights with dresses!
A liiiittle too dark for my taste.


Try something like this that has a bit more contrast.
