patterned

What a great pattern!

What a great pattern! These are fantastic! One of my Christmas presents from my good friend JC. She done well. All the tights she got me have been gorgeous and just what this blog is about.

I don’t know what, who they are but I love the pattern of everything. There’s swirls, flowers, holes. So much to take in. A great pair of fishnets.

Au Revoir Gerbe

Au revoir Gerbe!

These lovely tights have made their way onto the stairway of no return. I love the colour, I love the pattern, I love the slippery slidey feeling I get when I walk over a polished floor. I have worn these a few times in the past few weeks. Their first appearance was just before Christmas but now they must be sent to the away due to a hole in the thigh.

Au revoir Gerbe

Gorgeous Gerbe

This season I’ve tried a few more brands and these are Gorgeous Gerbe. I’m always wanting to wear fabulous colours and as you all know I love patterned legs and this pair of tights fits the bill. In subtle blue (or is it purple) it’s not garish and after wearing them I want to go out and buy more coloured hosiery.

This is what you get when you open them. A little reminder of who they are, which is also found on the waistband. They are comfortable, slightly sheer and just really pretty.

Before Iceland

Before Iceland, my 2016 holiday.

It looks like Iceland is the “in” place to go for a holiday and not boasting, this coming trip will be my second. However the days leading up to a visit to the land of fire and ice proved good practise for me. It got cold here in the UK! I had to pull out my woolliest tights which meant all those season award winners had to take a back seat and the elements took precedence. This is one of my standard winter pairs of hosiery worn last year under Winter’s Coming in October, and even though they are starting to look a bit worse for wear with a bit of thinning and the elastic is tightening and so they have shrunk a bit and fall down and crotches are likely to be found around knee level, they look wintery and keep me warm. This may be their last year.

Legsavenue Mustachioed

Had a fun day wearing these legsavenue mustachioed tights. Very vibrant and a recognisable pattern. No slippage so no wrinkles and they stayed put. After wearing a series of black tights I did feel a little exposed but that will wear off as the tights season progresses and I start getting more wacky coloured hosiery.
