I am always on the lookout for new hosiery and shapewear to try. Day to day, I usually wear my beloved Sweet Nothings Get The Skinny Shaping Leggings, but, depending on the season, event and outfit, leggings are not always appropriate so I try to keep a good selection of other items which can do the job of smoothing and shaping instead.
Tights are something I have been keeping an eye out for recently. Here in the UK, the weather has taken a turn for the worse and it's been much colder of late. This means that I need to wear tights when wearing a skirt or dress so I was really pleased when Yours Clothing got in touch to offer me a pair of tights to review.
Since I started wearing dresses and skirts around two years ago (yes, I really had spent the vast majority of my adult life wearing trousers as I believed that skirts did not suit/would not work for me), I have been a fan of tights. I would wear black or natural shaping tights under my maxi skirts and dresses, but as I did not wear skirts any shorter than ankle length I had never considered coloured tights before now.
However, all that changed when I was at Plus North last month. I had the opportunity to try out a few different items from the wonderful We Love Colors range, thanks to the gorgeous Toni, and I leapt at the chance. We Love Colors sell tights, fishnet items and socks for women, men and children. They have a specific section for Plus Size Hosiery which comprises tights, footless tights and fishnet pantyhose.
