A small pet peeve of mine is when women wear
tights or leggings incorrectly. So, here are a few tips of when to
wear leggings and when to wear tights...
- First
leggings are NOT pants or tights. Although leggings are super
comfortable and functional, sometimes they are a little confusing to
style. They should not be worn under a dress and are generally not
considered professional. So, wear those leggings with long shirts
(please cover your derriere) or tunics.
- Tights
should be worn with dresses, shorts, or skirts. Because tights are
normally at least a little opaque the length of your top should be to
your fingertips or longer.
- Please
remember this is not yoga class - unless you are going to work out or
are working out currently maybe don't wear those leggings with your
tennis shoes and sweatshirt.
- Leggings look great with a layered look - a long chambray with a cardigan.
- Accessories tights with socks and ankle boots, flats, or heels
- Tights are best for dressy occasions. For Holiday parties maybe stick to the tights or thinner leggings with heels.
The Brittany Sweatshirt Dress is a perfect top for those leggings...perfect length with pockets! Paired with the France Sweater
that is hand knit from banana fiber - yes banana fiber (which feels a
lot like linen) and then hand knit by our fair trade partner in Nepal.
