Now that Fall has officially started, and cooler temps are here, I’m seeing lots of women sporting skirts and frocks with tights in Antwerp. That’s why I found it extra fun to see several articles on hosiery pop up this week too:
- Refinery29 did some research for us, and answers the question: Black Tights That Don’t Rip: Do They Exist?
- I enjoyed this article in The Guardian on How Nylons Changed Literature.
- Fashionista has tips on How To Wear Novelty Tights.
- They also did a roundup of 11 Pairs of Black Tights That Won’t Give You a Muffin Top.
- Apartment Therapy brings us 20 Interesting Household Uses for Old Pantyhose and Stockings.
