And so says Vogue...



This small piece in Vogue struck me because it pertains a lot to my earlier post about wearing stockings when the weather gets colder.
"When temperatures drop, bare legs take cover against the chill. For those sorry to see summer go, stockings ease the transition from warm-weather to winter dressing, helping style setters like Agyness Deyn prolong the season for shorts. Designers also applied a bit of magical thinking to legs with tights so bold in pattern and texture as to be considered a must-have accessory. Prints pop against solids; hence Georgia May Jagger's lacy stockings paired with a mustard frock and Eugenia Gonzalez's python and azure dress combination" (Vogue, December 2009 Issue)

  1. So how thick to these tights have to be? Today in one of my classes a girl was wearing leggings and a baggy sweater. but I could totally see her plaid underwear through the leggings. That's tacky right?

  2. haha yeah id say so. I think its a judgment call, and maybe this isn't some peoples' best qualities. I think that if you are wearing any kind of legging and especially stocking, its important to make sure that your top hits your thighs and covers your butt. Otherwise you get into awkward wardrobe malfunctions like camel-toe and things of that nature that no one wants to see really.
