Yellow animal faces

These are one of my favourite pairs of tights. They're just so fun! They're made by one of my favourite tights brands, les Queues des Sardines who always make gorgeous, unique tights. However the brand is hideously expensive and the only pairs I have are either presents or were bought in sales. I got these from a Tatty Devine sale for £10 (actually I ordered another pair but they sent me these by mistake. I was delighted as these weren't actually on the site anymore!) 
 Apart from being 'designer' I believe the brand hand prints their stuff, which slightly justifies the price. However of the pairs I have I personally find that they're not amazing quality. For instance this pair are one of those annoying ones that will not stay up and end up rolling down til the crotch is by your knees. Another pair laddered as soon as I put them on :(




I still love them though. So damn cute!

The Worlds Coolest Tights?

 
This brand have been going for a while now, at least since 2009 but I only just discovered them. I am absolutely stunned. They're called Les Queues De Sardines which is a fantastic fun name! The tights are all hand printed and only available in limited runs and they're all just stunning.




Sadly I doubt I will ever own any. Or at least not more than a couple of pairs, despite loving basically every pair they make! Sadly they're far to pricey for me at about £40 a pair and they're also hard to come by. They're sold in Selfridges and about 1 other shop in London and a couple of webstores, but lots of the designs have sold out and I'll never find them :( 



What do you think? Cool or too bizarre?
