Careful, B. Hell hath no fury like a Chuck Bass scorned.

I might make all post titles Gossip Girl quotes? It feels like I've been watching that show non stop for about three years!

Anyway I must firstly say that the outfit in the post below was not exactly an outfit, I took it when I was trying on the trousers and just happened to be wearing top! Otherwise I would have thought the pink on pink might seem like pyjamas ha ha.

I'm trying to figure out why is it that when I wear white tights, I immediately pair them with girly, 5-year-old stuff or preppy Gossip Girl outfits, whereas there are so many super cool ladies out there who manage to look edgy and even a little bit androgynous in theirs. How do they do it?! I can't really pick out any commonalities apart from that it seems they might have found their outfits and then added the white tights instead of say black, rather than doing what I do and working an outfit around white tights. Ahh confusing! No super flared skirts, red, or sailor collars might help too! It's insanely annoying that I could only bring a small suitcase full of clothes home but I'm working with what I've got and might use some white tights in an all black outfit for a change. The stark white certainly adds a cool dimension, especially with black shoes.

Do you ever have problems with staining white tights? Mine always get stains on the toes and heels from the leather of shoes i wear with them! it irritates me so much!

[a la mode]

All those styles are beautiful!

Ohh, I love white, but I have to say, really does preparatory school!
And I know it, because when I'm a child 5 years too! ha ha ha.

This is really confusing!
Have a nice day!

Xoxo.

As much as I love white tights, in my adult life I have only worn them to a fancy dress party. I was Little Red Riding Hood. I'm getting the feeling that the only way to get away with the look is to have really skinny legs. Or be in "Gossip Girl". Or both of the above.

I love my white tights with black, it looks fab. Geat blog by the way x

[Sandra]

the girls in the first and fifth picture have the longest legs!
so nice.
i've never thought about wearing white tights, but they all do rock it well.

Well hey, we all love a bit of Gossip girl. I still don't own any white tights...I'm not sure if it's because I'm not sure how someone as short as me can pull them off (these girls all have long legs!) These looks are cute though.

[NiceAndShiny]

Your right, these girls look awesome! Although I love your girly looks just as much, if not more ;)
I've heard that white tights make legs look bigger than they are, but the white tights look great on every one of these girls. And I can't find a commonality either... maybe its the black?

The white tights look great on these girls, but I don't think they're a look that everyone can pull off. I don't know. It just doesn't seem very flattering to me/I think you run the risk of looking like you're a little girl.

[rachael]

I think it's all about the shoes - if you wear them with mary janes or ballet flats then you get the 5-year-old look, fierce black heels toughen them up a bit!

[Rachie]

LOVE THE TITLE LOL!

the last time i wore white tights, they were not as 100 denier as the ones above so my legs looked fat.end of.

[emily]

you talk a lot about the complications of having ginger hair, i.e., not being able to wear pink or neons. when i saw this, it made me think of you!! http://theglamourousgradstudent.blogspot.com/2009/02/redheads-with-style-isla-fisher-as.html

I love the way these ladies rock white tights--but the fact I always envision them with 5 year old looks is why I haven't bought any yet!

[Kay]

I've got so behind on Gossip Girl!
The white tights thing is a mystery to me, I can never seen to put together an outfit in my head that would work with them without looking like a five year old.
Weirdly given that I'm not a big print fan my favourite look is the one with the floral dress, it just looks so effortless.

[kirafashion]

Amazing ways to wear white tights!
Surprising for me :)

a kiss!!!

I want a pair of white tights more than anything in the world right now!

[Jo-Anne]

The girl with the white cape! I found a similar one in the thrift store awhile ago! Mine is very similar. I could'nt figure out if it was homemade or not,now I know. Where did you find that photo?
Here is my post about it.

Q. Why do girls wear white tights?

A. Because they are HOT and look fantastic.

Girls are always worried that they'll look like a five year old attending her first ballet class. Not at all. White tights are the bomb. Rock it.

[Shin]

I've never worn white tights before but I think they look so delicate and pretty with floral dresses or whimsical flats. xxoxoxo

[elisabeth]

i love how the girl on the top right has worn hers, they look fantastic!maybe teaming them with mannish shoes would help?

[Scheharazade]

They are so elegant.

bisou^^

I love the white floral dress with the white tights- it's something i would never think of doing and always fall back on the usual white. I've been looking for some but can only find the footless versions- does anyone know where i can get some?

[Karina H.]
