Hose up and deny the fashion gods

According  to Christina Kelly, the fashion gods have spoken: Tights are out! Say goodbye to crazy-patterned leggings and lacy tights.

All JoyOfTights can say is NO! NO! NO!

• No to boring legs - why just have skin colour when you can have a colour and crazy patterns
• No to losing those glances we get when guys see how sexy our legs are in pantyhose
• No to getting cold

OUT! (Apparently)

OUT! (Apparently)

OUT! (Apparently)

Well Ms Kelly has a solution to the last point.  Well three actually.

(1) Go for length with floor length coats.  All I can say is that if you've got legs fault them!

(2) Wear high boots.  Well nothing against boots, I own a few pairs.  But it's a both/and, an either/or.  Wear tights for warmth and elegance and then boots for extra warmth and extra elegance.

(3) Consider chunky socks.  Again its a both/and not an either/or.  Long socks can leave the tops of your legs awfully exposed.  But with tights - winning toasty warm.

Socks (and tights) with attitude.

So go on defy the fashion gods.  They are only a metaphor after all.  Its not as though they'll strike you down and leave a pair of smoking heals.

Ohhh empty heels, but they are not smoking.  But perhaps the fashion gods did disintegrate her for wearing tights?  Could the girl on the right be next!

Better take your shoes off so they don't get damaged when you get struck by the lightening bolt.
