HOSIERY FOR DUMMIES



Just when you thought it was OK to rock bare legs this fall (WRONG!). Designers Moschino and D&G are blowing us away with bold and outrageous hosiery this season. I am a big fan of printed tights. It is such a creative way to dress up that old party dress you bought over 5 yrs ago. There are no rules to this particular look. The bolder the beautiful! We want wild and crazy prints, bright shades, full length and knee highs. Try wearing them underneath a pair of skinny jeans to give your heels a quick boost. There are a million colors this fall. Try and keep your colors in the same family if possible. If you’re wearing a blue dress, grab a pair of tights similar to that shade. You don’t want to look like a walking crayon box. Of course black is more versatile, so you’re free to do whatever you wish. Choosing the print will be entirely up to you. I chose to stay away from boring fishnets this season. There are so many bold prints this fall, why go with something that has already been done before? If you decide to rock the fishnets… check out Baby Phat, Rodarte, and D Squared for fresh ideas. This look is fun and unrestricted, so be fashionably free for once!
