Old Crazy Legs

I saw these AMAZING tights on Ambroisine's blog and they are love. I can't get them out of my head and I adore how quirky they are. I will be attempting to DIY something similar this fall...

These tights are incredible! You should definitely try a DIY. A few months ago I saw the most gorgeous DIY of a pair of sequined Doo.Ri lace tights on Park & Cube and have been dying to sequin a pair ever since!

goda said...

As a nursing major those last pair totally speak to me I wonder if they are anatomically correct. that would be fun

Winnie said...

Yes! I love the smiley knees, so adorable.

I know the height difference was funny, I felt so tiny! It was such a good night meeting other bloggers. I'm sure you'll enjoy meeting up with all those bloggers for the weardrobe conference thing? That looks so awesome!

sarah_ollivier said...

Those tights are crazy! Actually I hate the last ones because I hate veins (don't ask me why), but the other ones are great :)

Kim said...

I absolutely adore these! The first pair would be so fitting for me, as my short height and slow stride has earned me the nickname "antlegs" among friends and family.

Diary of a Young Designer said...

The ones with the veins would do such a great Halloween costume! They are absolutely cool. ^-^

asunlitday said...

Those are fab! I ♥ them.
The bumblebee(thats what they are, right? lol) ones are my favorite.

dearilou said...

Quirky yes, but creepy is also another word for those vein ones. I can't look at my real veins, let alone fake ones.
The faces on the knees are really cute though.

WendyB said...

That last pair would be great for a Halloween costume. I could go as an elderly lady with very bad spider veins.

Brigadeiro said...

Ooh! That last pair are freaky!!! *lol* to the 2nd pair :)

reckless daughter said...

I've been compiling a huge "legwear wishlist" for fall/winter. Speaking of depleting the wallet... it's scary, isnt it, all I have to do is click "Buy" ! ;)

Lucy in the Sky said...

WOAHHHHHH
this would've been perfect for my little post about tights xD Those tights with veins look amazing! though they're kind of creepy.

Anna Pope said...

I think the arteries and veins ones would make quite an impression when doing my rounds in the hospital next month!

dapper kid said...

The ants pair are so wonderfully weird. I saw a woman yesterday wearing the teasing seamline tights. They have a black seam running up the back, but just as it hits the thigh, there is a little dainty hand that appears to be pulling it up. It was such a subtle design, but I absolutely loved it.

style of olya baileys said...
