Black And Blue

Cooler weather recently has afforded me the opportunity to wear these sweet Betsey Johnson heart tights from Modcloth. They are quite possibly the greatest tights ever and make me want many more pairs of sheer tights...of course these sheer stockings are less robust than their opaque brethren and living with me seems to be the equivalent of wilderness training, so sadly they already bear a rip down the right leg. sheer heart tights, the clothes horse, blue jacket, outfit, style, woodssheer heart tights, the clothes horse, blue jacket, outfit, style, woodssheer heart tights, the clothes horse, blue jacket, outfit, style, woodssheer heart tights, the clothes horse, blue jacket, outfit, style, woodssheer heart tights, the clothes horse, blue jacket, outfit, style, woods

Cute tights, too bad about the rip, that happens to me all the time too when I wear sheer tights.
I love that photo of you with the blue skirt outfit, your hair look amazing with that braid-halo and that shade of blue is as good as it gets.

These tights make me smile. At least there's one benefit to all the cold summer weather-- sporting fall looks early! :)

those tights are so amazing! xxxx

Danielle de la Mont said...

I too have a great love of sheer tights, but am forever mourning their tragic demises via snares and tears. Alannah Hill does amazing variations like little bunches of flowers etc.

Raquel said...

the tights are amazing! and I also love black and blue together.

Tara Diane said...

Out of all of the things to comment on, I love your hair picture with the braid! I can't wait for mine to grow out a bit.

Lauren! said...

What lovely tights :) And your hair in that second set looks so fantastic!!

Diane said...

I am in deep love with the tights and shoes. I really really really (I'm very inarticulate today) want a pair of sheer printed tights like these but my wallet has been telling me "no" for a while.

Where did you get that bracelet in the second set of photos, btw?

Emma said...

those tights are amazingg! I also love the blazer!

xoxo

Anna Pope said...

Leave it to Betsey to make such cute tights. Love the second outfit :)

Pamcasso said...

CaitieCatherwood1314 said...

Oh I love both of your outfits! The dress in the first one, and the skirt in the second especially! And the tights are lovely! I want some sheer tights myself, it's just a matter of finding the right pair. :D

BUROX; Nina. said...

Absolutely love the tights. I always rip the tight I like the most, pretty unfortunate... There is this one pair of tights (the only one we see on my blog yet) that I would love to wear these days, but it's waaaaaaay to hot out! It's been like 30 degres celcius every day this week!

Little Bow Prep said...

I adore the second outfit- especially the tights!

Amelia said...

Those tights are the greatest! I love them with the fringe dress. The color of the skirt is wonderful, too, especially with the light blue bag.

Diana said...

i love the new look!
