Tights are a controversial accessory, because high-quality stylish tights go unnoticed in the image, and ridiculous and low-quality ones can ruin any tasteful outfit. In other words, with tights everything is simple and complicated at the same time. So what tights to buy tis winter or spring? Slimming body tights with glitter should be left in the 2000s, colored and lurid – in the 2010s, and in the bright future, take only black, matte and dense ones with you. It is impossible to unequivocally answer the question of how to choose the right tights, because each image is individual, but we advise you to act by contradiction and clearly define the models of tights that do not suit you in any scenario. And remember one mantra: your tights must either be invisible or look expensive, and there are almost no exceptions to this golden rule.
No: tights in neon shades

Vogue magazine as a standard records neon tights in a trend about once every two years, but we never saw a single example from the catwalk adequate for real life. Pink tights with red shoes are appropriate, perhaps, only at a themed party with clowns, and neon lace is a separate “toxic” type of tights, which it is better not to approach.
No: lurex tights
We have nothing against textured tights, but when texture, shine and color are present, this is too much. Experienced stylists will find how to play with these tights in the style of the 1970s, the same era when lurex was popular. We advise the rest to be very careful: metallic feet can ruin everything.

No: retro tights
Unusual hosiery is an easy and inexpensive way to stand out on a monotonous Instagram feed. If your goal is to stand out, then feel free to try on models with daisies and roses, and if tights for you are a purely auxiliary accessory, then it is better to bypass any clumsy models.

No: tights with logo
Any product where the logo is repeated more than one or two times is suggestive of advertising. Plus, these things usually get boring very quickly, because a logo is just another annoying print. Is it worth then spending money on tights that you will no longer like in record time?

What tights to buy this winter or spring?
It is easier to ruin the image with bright and scary tights than to implement a truly original idea. We will not discourage the bold and risky – on the contrary, we will recommend them to buy colored tights at the winter sales, because non-classic models always get on discounts. We advise everyone else to experiment with pantyhose very carefully and in detail: a bracelet over tights is already a challenge, and a polka-dot print is already a rather noticeable pattern.
Yes: black tights with embellishment at the ankle
There is nothing sexier than black sheer tights, especially when paired with a short skirt or mini shorts and a fully covered top. Sometimes, in order to diversify the image, it is safer to do this not through new accessories, but through jewelry: take your summer gold ankle bracelet from the box and put it over black tights. Gold will add an eye-catching accent without the risk of looking ridiculous.

Yes: white polka dot tights
Black and white are perfect companions for all time. Even if you are no longer a schoolgirl, try this combination: a tight black top in the form of a dress or woolen shorts and white tights with a barely noticeable pattern. In this case, let the tights be the only bright spot in the image, as they will create a very touching impression. If desired, add a string of pearls around the neck to the look as a small but very thoughtful detail to suit the mood.

Yes: matte blue tights instead of black
Dark blue, asphalt gray, or burgundy are an alternative, risk-free way to incorporate color into your look. If you want to look taller visually, you can choose tops and tights in the same range, for example, as in the image of a blogger: a thick cotton dress and matte tights, both in dark blue. Still, sapphire blue is luxurious beyond all praise! The same trick can be repeated with beige, dark red, gray colors, if you are particularly tired of black tights, and you don’t want to mess with bright shades.
