I don't mind them:) </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/left-bank-cool#post-1080799 Sun, 10 Nov 2013 23:56:06 +0000 Kristin L 1080799@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>They just confuse me.

This piece might form the core of someone's very functional, attractive capsule. I'm not sure exactly what their lifestyle would look like, or what coordinating pieces would make these tights a multi-tasking wardrobe workhorse, but wrong for me doesn't mean wrong across the board. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/left-bank-cool#post-1080739 Sun, 10 Nov 2013 22:56:54 +0000 Archer 1080739@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Yes - let me count the ways. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/left-bank-cool#post-1080666 Sun, 10 Nov 2013 21:03:40 +0000 Catnip 1080666@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I've spent a fair amount of time in France, and French women do not wear items like this.&nbsp;&nbsp;French women&nbsp;can be extremely chic&nbsp;and always look appropriate.&nbsp; These tights are ridiculous.&nbsp; I would hate to think they&nbsp;might have been&nbsp;designed for the American market. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/left-bank-cool#post-1080662 Sun, 10 Nov 2013 21:00:47 +0000 RunswithDolphins 1080662@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>mmm - wrong and expensive ... </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/left-bank-cool#post-1080658 Sun, 10 Nov 2013 20:56:46 +0000 deb 1080658@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Does anyone else see this a just wrong or is it just me?</p> <p>"<strong>About Faith Connexion:<br /></strong>With a design team hailing from the likes of Balmain, Lacroix and Azzaro, Faith Connexion brings "Left Bank Cool" to a new generation of glamorous women."</p> <p><a href="http://www.bergdorfgoodman.com/Faith-Connexion-Floral-Print-Leggings-Black-Green-Florals/prod92200116_cat425716_cat422902_/p.prod?isEditorial=false&amp;index=31&amp;cmCat=cat000000cat000002cat000010cat422900cat422902cat425716" rel="nofollow">http://www.bergdorfgoodman.com.....rod9220011</a></p> <p>Pics are front and back. </p>
