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.)ย I plan on wearing this look to an upcoming holiday party. This plaid skirt is only $15 and feels so festive!

I really like how the skirt looks with the tights! And your hair looks amazing styled like that, by the way!
It’s always so difficult to avoid snagging your tights. I find that even the zipper on a longer oversized coat can catch onto your tights, or the zipper on your boots. Such a downside to wearing tights!

I almost feel like OTK boots are an extra bonus with keeping you warm in addition to the tights. I really need to find me a pair, I have a list a mile long of winter essentials I need. ๐ Red plaid skirts are a favorite of mine this time of year, you styled your nicely with that gorgeous top with the neck tie!

I completely agree with you about tights. I love wearing my dresses and skirts in the winter, but I don’t relish the idea of freezing. Those tights look really nice and I’m loving that festive skirt.

There is no way I can wear a dress or skirt without tights in winter! My fleece lined pair is definitely my fav! Loving that skirt and OTK boots! You look fabulous!
In love with that skirt and your entire look! Perfect for the holidays.
