Get (Wolford) Tight

One of my favorite trends for fall is the fashiony-tight. If money were no object I would so get this Missoni pair priced at $150, down from $450:

But since money doesn't grow on trees, I think I could satisfy myself with these black lace-throwback-to-Madonna's-heyday version instead:

At a measly $20 (marked down from $45) I could throw in a pair of fingerless gloves as well. Wish I still had mine from the 80s.

Both by Wolford. Get them on Rue La La now until Friday. But hurry - quantities are limited and are sure to sell out!

Trends Report: Pretty Tight

Let’s face it; most of us have pretty tight clothing budgets lately. Fortunately, a quick and easy way to update your wardrobe this Fall is with, pardon the pun, pretty tights.

Hosiery is hot, and the more unusual the better. Colorful opaques, wild patterns, lace, and interesting weaves can make your go-to silhouettes look like they came straight off the runway. This season’s tights also complement trendy shoe options like peep toe booties which are all the rage.

A quick tip with these nouveau hose is to keep it tonal. Skirts and dresses should be in the same color family as your tights and shoes – it will create a long slimming effect. If you haven’t already, complete your Color Profile to find your most flattering colors.
