Quickie Darling Deal & Steal: Stock Up On Polka Dot Stockings!

Posted on by

It’s no secret that I love polka dots & when they’re in hosiery, I literally go bonkers! It’s one of my favorite ways to start building an outfit.  Just because winter is winding down, it doesn’t mean that you can’t still keep your black tights in rotation for your work looks, daytime outfits, or adding texture to a nighttime ensemble.

Since I’ve been working my new job, commuting from the middle of Long Island into Brooklyn, I’ve been a little lazy (yet still stylish) on the outfit front since there’s no set dress code & casual wear is acceptable.  So it’s been a lot of jeans & cardigans, but I do miss wearing my favorite tights so much!

One of my favorite places to shop for stockings & tights is Kohl’s.  I can always rely on Simply Vera Vera Wang & Apt. 9 have polka dot, or dot-inspired legwear at an affordable price.  This includes the sheer dot control-top tights ($6.99) & the ellipse dotted control-top tights ($6.99). Both styles are currently marked down from their original $14.00 price tag, so it’s like you’re getting two pairs for the price of one!

Quickie Darling Deal & Steal: Fierce Tights From Fred Flare!

Posted on by

I realize that I’ve posted lots about tights & stockings, but if you didn’t gasp with adoration for these fashionable leg coverings, then you’re not really a Style Darling! One of my favorite ways to style a dress / skirt look this season is with tights & tights with texture, design, pattern, or delicate details are no exception to this.

While casually clicking around the Fred Flare website, I found these two pairs of tights on sale & I’m two minutes away from breaking out my wallet to buy them online, but I know I’m on a super crazy budget since I’m leaving for Italy on Wednesday.

The polka dot New York tights ($19.99) have been marked down from $30.00 & would instantly make any LBD look a little more flirty & playful.  Also, I’d even wear these to the office with something simple like suede pumps & a black cardigan.

The midnight garden party tights ($9.99) have also been reduced from their original $15.00 price tag & would transform a sheath dress from sexy to super deadly.  The mixture of something so feminine as lace against edgier fabrics like leather or metal embellishments can bring your outfit to a whole new level.

Quickie Darling Deal & Steal: The Prettiest Pattern Tights By Vera Wang!

Posted on by

On a day-to-day basis, I’m wearing some sort of textured tights around the office & when going out with friends.  I’ve recently put a nasty & irreparable hole in my favorite zebra tights, but while on the search for a replacement pair, I found these Simply Vera Vera Wang tights, which are on my stocking stuffer list!

The checked control-top tights in plum ($14.00) & floral ribbon tights in black ($14.00) are currently part of a Buy One, Get One 1/2 Off sale @Kohl’s.  Usually I don’t spend more than $7.00 on tights or stockings, but when there’s a sale like this, it’s hard to resist! Both pairs are available in multiple colors & if you are a cardholder, you can get rewards up to an additional 30% off!

When you have such an elegant pattern like these on your legs, you have the opportunity to mix up prints with an abstract sheath dress, wool suit, or blouse with shorts look.  Also, pairing legwear like this is perfect for mary jane platforms, ankle booties, or knee boots!

What kind of tights are you wearing this season?  Happy Styling!
