Silver lurex

 These are some nice light silver lurex tights I got from Asos for about a fiver. They fit really well and look very nice but, like all glittery metallic tights I've found, they itch like crazy!




Also my cat Mr Darcy snuck into the photos. He's gotten fatter since these were taken. As have I :P

Watermelon Tights

 These are one of my favourite pairs of tights because they make my legs look like watermelon. Unfortunately they're not the highest quality. The spots are printed on and are not quite dark enough and they're one of those pairs where the legs are not long enough so you have to really stretch them to get them up properly. But... they still look lovely!



These came from Topshop about 2 years ago.

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!

Heart Seams

 Sorry for the disappearance everyone! Back to the tights :D

From the front these appear to just be pale nude toned opaque tights.

 

But from the back...


Heart seams!
I can't remember what brand these were, I have a feeling they might be Emilio Cavallini. Something quite expensive anyway.
I love the look of these but the fit is pretty terrible! They were one size fits all but.. well it really does not! I can't get these all the way up, my legs are too long, and the waistband will not stay put, it rolls down constantly. I might have to cut them into stockings.
