Tights the ideal last minute gift for her (from her)

Girls, queuing, wondering what last minute presents you should buy?  How about tights?  Just the thing for:

• Your best female friend
• A colleague
• A cousin
• A niece
• And (best of all) yourself.  You need a reward for all that present shopping.

My personal choice would be a pair of sheer black tights with a badass skull motif, courtesy of Rob Kardashian’s sock and hosiery line Arthur George.  The skull print is actually really subtle, love the idea of wearing them like you would any pair of black tights, or under a pair of ripped jeans, for an extra dose of cool.

Or failing that some bone tights. A reminder that beneath the nicest pair of legs is a set of bones just waiting to be burnt up and ground down.

But if this is all too macabre for such a happy time of year, there are lots of tights out there.

Here are a few suggestions, but remember new tights styles are coming in all the time, and others are going out.

How about something nice and dotty?

With a nice seam?

Or without

There are all sorts of suspender tights.  Tights that pretend, to a greater or lesser extend, to be stockings with suspenders.  Guaranteed to get the male heart racing and the blood flowing (and we all know where), even when the guy doesn't have a tights fetish.  Best as a present to yourself, not your BFF, why should she have all the fun?

More "hold up" tights rather than stocking tights.

And there are lots of patterned tights:

Lacey tights

Swirly tights (nice peep toes too)

Flowery tights

Kris-Cross Tights (Enjoying yourselves girls?)

Animal skin (fake) tights

And let's not forget coloured tights

Guy warning!

If you are a guy reading this remember:

• Girls buying girls tights is OK
• Guys buying girls tights is weird.

In fact if you are a guy reading this, rather than doing anything more normal, you are already WEIRD.

Let me put it this way

She is opening her present:

And yes its a Wii

But imagine the disappointment if it was a box of pairs of tights!  She has been forced to wear scratchy tan tights because its Christmas, now yet more tights.:(

So what can you buy?  Gods give me strength, here are some suggestions.

Shoes

Don't buy her shoes.  Go shoe shopping with her, however long it takes, and buy whatever she wants (You might even get a flash of nyloned foot with reinforced toe).

Clothes

As above.  Again you might get a flash of nylon.

Alcohol

Always goes down well

A new 'phone

A new tablet

Any other tech

Such a geek girl

Jewelry

I'd prefer a ring to an anklet to wear under tights....

... so I get a toe ring to wear under tights

Beauty products

Like curling tongues

 

Exercise gear

If you must....

... better a motor bike than an exercise bike

In fact girls would like anything from a guy other than a pair of tights

Even a cuddly toy

But best of all ... lots of dosh
