Tights are winter’s hero. I firmly believe that. I use tights to wear my favorite skirts and dresses all winter long instead of having to reserve them for specific seasons. They keep me from caving to the boring world of trousers every day for work. At the start of each season, I buy a couple nice pairs of black tights. I need an extra for the last-minute-rushing-out-of-the-door-snag situation. If you can keep one pair nice all season, just don’t tell me. I recently got to try the L’eggs Energy Tights. They’ll now be my forever friend for the control top (hello holiday parties) and graduated compression. They also have a wide waist band, so none of those awkward rolling down moments occur. I also appreciate the quality is higher than the price (only $5-$7). I’ve definitely spent more than that on my quest for a good pair. (Be sure to get the Energy Tight not the Sheer Energy unless you are looking for more of a hose than tight.) I plan on wearing this look to an upcoming holiday party. This plaid skirt is only $15 and feels so festive!

Ah, I love your opening statement! It’s completely true. I have an entire drawer dedicated to tights. I basically live in them! Love this look, btw! The plaid skirt and bow top are a perfect combo.
Thanks so much or linking up with Friday Favorites! Hope you have an amazing week ahead of you!

Catch title and I agree with the message too. I will have to buy a few pairs of these tights. Such awesome prices too. That skirt is meant for me. Buffalo Plaid and in red plus 15 bucks? I am so ordering it. What size are you wearing if you don’t mind me asking?
I keep meaning to reply to you. Sorry for the delay! I usually wear a size 4, and I ordered a 6. It’s perfect! Hope you get it. I know you would love it.
UGHHH tights drive me crazy! They always hit at an awkward spot on my torso and either slide down, or cause a nasty bulge when I get a bit bloated. The worst! These ones sound like a dream!
Loving your plaid skirt/denim jacket combo. So pretty for the holidays!
