It’s finally sweater season in Houston! But our threshold for sweaters is wimpier than in most of the country. So I can still wear these:
…albeit with tights and a sweater. That’s my fall obsession: tights. I love them! They’re comfortable and warm and durable, whereas conventional hosiery is pretty much single-use in my hands. Plus they come in a million fun colors and patterns and remind me a little of childhood (when I probably hated them; funny how that works).
My height and weight combination falls somewhere outside of most hosiery sizing charts, but We Love Colors carries tights in an astounding array of sizes. I have a couple pairs, couldn’t be happier with them, and am constantly looking for a reason I need more.
BTW, the dress on the left was a recent dirt-cheap acquisition from Limited’s end-of-season clearance. The one of the right is by Hale Bob (love their prints), and it was a Billion Dollar Babes score. The BDB price was substantially less than Hale-Bob’s own sale price! The colors were somewhat different than the pictures had led me to believe, which is always a risk when you’re ordering something you can’t return, but it worked out in my favor this time.
Bonus action shot (no tights, alas):
