How about tucking the top in the skirt? And those shoes are cute! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/maiden-voyage-of-the-burgundy-tights#post-789892 Thu, 06 Dec 2012 17:26:32 +0000 catgirl 789892@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>This looks lovely to me. How about your black sheath over top look and some boots? </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/maiden-voyage-of-the-burgundy-tights#post-789789 Thu, 06 Dec 2012 14:56:40 +0000 Kat 789789@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I think you have an amazing grasp of color and work it very well (far better than I) so I hesitate to offer suggestions, but...<br /> I really like the idea of a neutral outfit with the tights as a pop of color (though this may just be more where my comfort lies, so grain of salt ....) </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/maiden-voyage-of-the-burgundy-tights#post-789787 Thu, 06 Dec 2012 14:52:56 +0000 Sara L. 789787@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I have those exact same shoes!! I love them but seem to be having more trouble styling them this winter. I think you did a good job styling the burgundy tights. I have burgundy tights too and usually wear them in mostly neutral outfits but that's only because I don't have any patterned tops with burgundy. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/maiden-voyage-of-the-burgundy-tights#post-789713 Thu, 06 Dec 2012 13:19:07 +0000 Ingunn 789713@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Just wanted to say that I love the tights with those shoes. Brilliant! I like the top and skirt as well, and I think you have great style indeed. Thank you for inspiring me - now I want to dig out my burgundy tights, too! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/maiden-voyage-of-the-burgundy-tights#post-789710 Thu, 06 Dec 2012 13:03:45 +0000 Day Vies 789710@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Thank you all for your support and suggestions. I just could not pull it together yesterday. I'll try again next week with the tights to come up with something more cohesive. I am leaning towards a neutral look with the tights being the pop of color. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/maiden-voyage-of-the-burgundy-tights#post-789693 Thu, 06 Dec 2012 11:53:58 +0000 Atlantia 789693@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Love these tights, and I think you look great.<br /> I seem to be in the minority, but I quite like the belt. I think the little pop of color keeps the outfit from being too prim. With maryjane shoes and a full skirt, you need a little something unexpected. If you do decide to go without the belt, try a bit of statement jewelry.<br /> As for other style combos, I'd love to see these tights with a pencil skirt and something a little more voluminous on top. Or a sweater dress in a neutral, and a neutral bootie, with the tights being the main pop of color. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/maiden-voyage-of-the-burgundy-tights#post-789681 Thu, 06 Dec 2012 10:33:24 +0000 ManidipaM 789681@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I love your plaid shoes with those tights. Makes me think of dancing... </p> <p>The skirt is a great choice --- the neutral colour makes the tights stand out but the swirly shape draws attention to your legs, and not just the beautiful top (which in turn flatters your face!). </p> <p>I'd only remove the belt. Don't think you need it there and the colour distracts a bit. The top seems to have enough shape on its own to not miss it; but if you're not sure, maybe try gathering up one side into a sideways semi-tuck?</p> <p>I like Lyn D.'s suggestion of a cropped jacket though, or maybe a cardi, in black or grey or dark plum/burgundy --- something to maintain the vertical movement between face and legs while balancing the bold pattern of the top. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/maiden-voyage-of-the-burgundy-tights#post-789662 Thu, 06 Dec 2012 08:22:56 +0000 Deborah 789662@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>This looks beautiful. I would remove the belt though as I don't think the outfit needs it and even though the color works it's jaut a little distracting from the overal outfit. Coloured tights is not a look that I see much here but I like it. I particularly like it with the Mary Jane style shoe. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/maiden-voyage-of-the-burgundy-tights#post-789640 Thu, 06 Dec 2012 06:55:57 +0000 lyn* 789640@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I think this looks great too! I don't have burgundy tights (closest I have is purple) and I really really want some! Too bad I don't have such fabulous shoes to wear them with! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/maiden-voyage-of-the-burgundy-tights#post-789611 Thu, 06 Dec 2012 05:07:57 +0000 rae 789611@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Killer tights! I do love how you matched them to the sweater. I think you could also use them as a pop of color in an otherwise neutral outfit. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/maiden-voyage-of-the-burgundy-tights#post-789590 Thu, 06 Dec 2012 04:17:25 +0000 TraceyLiz65 789590@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I have seriously been looking all over pinterest and blogs for the colored tight looks and have come to the conclusion like others here have already said, that if I embrace this trend it will be with knee length skirt and just a peek of the tight with boots... </p> <p>Your way is much bolder and there are a lot of women wearing it that way, so you need to decide what you like best. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/maiden-voyage-of-the-burgundy-tights#post-789554 Thu, 06 Dec 2012 03:36:40 +0000 Carole 789554@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I struggle with the whole shoes, boots, hose and tight thing so I will leave that to the experts. Love the super cute shoes and can see you having loads of fun with them! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/maiden-voyage-of-the-burgundy-tights#post-789551 Thu, 06 Dec 2012 03:34:36 +0000 deb 789551@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I laughed visualizing you walking around in tights and Tee. All you needed to do was perform a few dance moves and nobody would question your attire. Adding the skirt makes a wonderful outfit to wear out of the house. And, I love those shoes! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/maiden-voyage-of-the-burgundy-tights#post-789527 Thu, 06 Dec 2012 03:04:55 +0000 Karie 789527@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I like the outfit as you've styled it! I also think tights look good with a pencil skirt and tall boots, or a sweater dress and tall boots.<br /> Love the shoes! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/maiden-voyage-of-the-burgundy-tights#post-789471 Thu, 06 Dec 2012 02:00:42 +0000 nancylee 789471@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Like Shevia said, I think this looks great. (But I have to confess I'm not an expert on tights.) LOVE those cool shoes. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/maiden-voyage-of-the-burgundy-tights#post-789465 Thu, 06 Dec 2012 01:55:56 +0000 Jaime 789465@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I think the tights work wonderfully here. The length of the skirt looks just right to me and the color highlights your pretty legs and ankles. You have great style! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/maiden-voyage-of-the-burgundy-tights#post-789460 Thu, 06 Dec 2012 01:48:49 +0000 Lyn D. 789460@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>That is such a pretty top D.V!<br /> I dont think it even needs a belt due to its fitted shape. I love coloured tights with skirts, so a good choice there.<br /> I like to wear mine with a knee-length skirt and long boots, so you see the colour, but not so much that it takes over the whole effect. If you did this with this top I would consider a cropped jacket rather than a belt.<br /> Great shoes! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/maiden-voyage-of-the-burgundy-tights#post-789459 Thu, 06 Dec 2012 01:48:07 +0000 Anonymous 789459@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Cute shoes! I love their spectator look with the plaid. I think you did a great job putting together an outfit, &amp; I especially like the colors &amp; pattern of the top with the shoes, &amp; the burgundy tights work with both.</p> <p>Megan </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/maiden-voyage-of-the-burgundy-tights#post-789450 Thu, 06 Dec 2012 01:24:17 +0000 Day Vies 789450@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I need help styling these gotta have burgundy tights. I admit I did not think this outfit through. I spent an hour trying to build an outfit around the shoes and tights I pulled on this tee and loved the neckline. Yes, I was really walking around the house in a top with tights and shoes with no bottoms. I went through 5 or 6 skirts before I found one that had enough volume on the bottom that also worked with the top. </p> <p>So I admit this is not my best attempt. Any other suggestions for how to style these tights are welcomed! </p>
