Well, it saddens me to say this is the first official “I’m wearing tights” post of the season. I know, I know…tights can add so much to a look with all of the variety in color and texture. But the thing is…I. Hate. Tights. Hate them. I’m always so uncomfortable and feel so constricted when I’m wearing them. You know it’s cold if you see me sportin’ a pair of tights. I feel like I’m being squished like a tube of toothpaste, and I absolutely cannot wait to get home at the end of the day and get the damn things off. That would be why I far prefer slouchy pants, no belts and skirts that sit on my hips. A few years back I stumbled upon some low-rise tights at Walmart and they were like a gift from heaven. Unfortunately they vanished and I’ve never been able to find them anywhere again. They are like the Bigfoot of tights. They’ve been spotted on occasion, but there’s no scientific proof of their existence.
I’ve been on the hunt for a chunky cream colored cardigan since I let one get away last year. I scored this one on sale at JCPenney and it totally does the trick. I’ve also been keeping an eye out for a striped skirt and I found this one on clearance for $11 at Old Navy. It, unfortunately, does not do the trick. It’s a small so I figured it would fit, but it’s just too big. I’m going to attempt to shrink it in the wash and see how it turns out…since I want it to shrink, I’m pretty sure it will stay exactly as it is.
