Knee socks are the new tights



I mean, right? If I see another pair of tights I will die of boredom.

And I believe sexy, wedding-y dresses demand bare legs. Call me old-fashioned.

(Peonies and cevd have me thinking about this recently.

  2. I'm totally rocking bare legs at my wedding. It hadn't occurred to me until now that their even was another option....
    I will, however, have pretty painted toes.

  10. Love knee high socks. Sadly tights for work though.

    Never considered any other option than bare legs for the wedding. And not only because I have peep toe shoes {although had better remember to have a pedicure}.

  11. You live in LA. Where tights are a mere fashion choice. Some of us would find ourselves with hypothermia if we were to give up on tights. I've been wearing them every day for about 7 months now. Sometimes two pairs.

  12. I never wore tights in new york either. PANTS I found worked pretty well.
