Patterned tights – how to wear them without making a faux pas?

Nude tights for women are boring, you think? Are you looking for accessories that will allow you to express your style? Then you will certainly like patterned tights that you can wear with various outfits. The choice is truly vast – from delicate tights with tiny dots or flowers, through geometric patterns, to fancy designs that will certainly attract attention! Your favourite pattern is one thing; however, remember that you should also consider how your legs will look.

We have already mentioned that vertical and horizontal stripes can work wonders; what patterned tights are still worth having in your wardrobe? First of all, pay attention to where the patterns are located; if you have a problem with massive ankles, a well-chosen application will allow for their optical slimming. The same applies to calves – both larger and too thin ones. All you need to do is learn a few clever tricks to make your legs always look perfect! Let's start with some obvious things: large decorative motifs attract attention and emphasise a given part of the leg. Obvious? Now it's time to put knowledge into practice; geometric patterns or openwork weaves will distract attention from the ankles, which is why they are recommended for all ladies interested in slimming this part of the legs. In the case of massive calves, try to ensure that the applications are in a different place – they will look much better through contrast. Tights – knee-highs or tights – over-the-knee socks, in turn, will look beautiful on slender legs and emphasise their shape.
