It’s about that time; the weather’s changing faster than you can say “Cardigan.” And lurking in the cool corner of minds, breathing chills down spines across the Midwest:
It’s the Transition to Pants!!!
But some of us, shaking with fear, would rather wait until the very last leaf turns than risk losing skirts and shorts too soon, deep in the dark depths of the closet, afraid of the 7 month restriction to pants.
What does this mean for the fate of our beloved above-the-knee items?
Turn to Tights
Tights occasionally get knocked as a tiring trend. Let them think what they want — we know tights are the savior of the fall.
1.)Tights allow you to wear a shorter short yet still feel covered.
2.)Tights balance a lighter weight skirt or a short if you are wearing a heavier top, sweater, or cardigan.
3.) Tights work like jewelry; they add frill and flair, plus, tights can be dressed up or down.
4.) Your legs may be cold, but one thing is hot this fall: BOOTS.Boots are everywhere. And what is more fitting to wear with boots than a pair of tights?
If you are really daring, try the knee-high sock or tight. A statement piece that serves the same purpose as the tight without the … uncomfortable … well, we all know that feeling .
So kick it school-girl as the chillier September weather approaches.
Fashionably Yours.
*DISCLAIMER* Tights MUST be worn with a skirt, dress, or shorts. No exceptions.
