Pale September... Wear Cool Tights.

FALL 2008 is bringing a lot of tights to sidewalk! Here are some of my favorite Runway depictions.

Image 1:
I'm not a fan of wearing open toe/peep toe shoes with tights, but Roksanda Illincic's edgy sophistication requires the styling of a girl that breaks the rules well. The popping yellow color sets off the tone. That is the key to edge, breaking the rules and looking amazing!

Sheer tights can be a fashion disaster if its not worn properly. What makes this look work or the slight muted colors in the shoes and knit cap. The tights look more like a fading effect, so it looks more stylish than just sexy.



Image 3:
In this image the stylists behind the Proenza Schouler created a beautiful composition of contrasting colors. The yellow and purple are beautiful complimentary colors and the green shoe adds a chic dynamic to it with out looking crayola happy! I would pair this look with a chic frame bag from Furla, Calvin Klein or Lanvin!



While strolling through the streets of New York City I photographed a few women in tights some interesting, some I would do differently.



Black Tights




I love the mixing of the brown and gray here, but the shirt needs to be longer.



Adorable.
