TIGHT(en) Up!

Thanksgiving is unfortunately over and, as my self-inflicted food coma still haunts me, I say a daily prayer to thank God for oversized sweaters. Among other reasons (fur coats, Christmas movies, etc.), winter is my favorite season for its laid-back fashions that permit individuals like me to get away with looking homeless.

Since the temperature has taken a tiny turn for the colder, I’ve stocked up on versatile tights to go with both professional and social (bar) outfits. If it’s chilly enough to wear a faux fur hat (yes, I saw that today), then it’s definitely an appropriate time for tights. It’s not even like you have to break the bank; hit up Forever21, H&M, and Gap for the best deals. A few of my favorite accessories to keep your legs warm and winter-weather ready:
