Tights Ahoy!

There's no use denying it - summer is truly over, it's time for autumn. Rather than get all gloomy about the end of summer what better way to eagerly anticipate the return of cold, wet, grey and generally miserable weather than by checking out what tights I'll be wearing this winter.

So, here is my tights and socks wish list - Santa, take note.

Firstly, from http://www.mytights.com/, these Cavallini beauties would go down a treat....I love them in both the green and the nude - but after a year of acid coloured tights I'm quite keen on a more discreet palette.

Henry Holland has concoted a few pairs of tights for Pretty Polly, one that I'm particularly keen on are the black graduated tights. The alphabet tights remind me of alphabet soup which I loved as a kid! I wonder if they feature all 26 letters.....

Then there's ASOS - never one to be outdone, they have two tone black and white tights reminiscent of the chanel tights. They are getting an express one way ticket to my sock drawer!!

Looking around online I stumbled on this website called sock dreams. Loved the name - although I immediately pictured socks having dreams rather than people dreaming of socks....I think my socks dream of winter so that they can come out and see the world (or London) with me. Or maybe they dream of getting away one day from my smelly feet. Hmm.

Anyhow, this sock dreams website has some very original hosiery. Check out the skeleton socks. Great if you're dressing up as a sexy skeleton (is that even possible?) for hallow'een. Otherwise I'd wear them if I was rocking the Noel Fielding look....I do have a weird crush on Vince from the Mighty Boosh - how can you not fancy a straight man who can pull off wearing glitter platforms?!

Racing tights? Tuxedo socks? Get on my wish list now! (again these are from Sock Dreams)

The Wolford fringe tights. asgjhsasdfhkja. (read this as the drooling sound homer makes when he sees doughnut). These however will only ever remain on my wish list and never in my closet - at £200 a pop I will definitely need a lottery jackpot to afford these!

And then obviously pretty much anything on the Too Many Tights blog!! On the most recent post, the gold and black Spartan tights would bring out the super hero in me - if there is one that is.
