Tights are cute, comfy, and an important part of many winter outfits. But tights aren’t just for keeping warm; they can be a stylish choice that let you remix a favorite outfit, add extra color and texture to a simple ensemble, or easily take a look from day to night. And while you can wear a pair of black tights and call it a day (seriously, black tights look good with everything), there are lots of chic, creative ways to wear tights with your favorite dresses, skirts, and even shorts.

Patterned Tights

Patterned tights instantly add texture and interest to an outfit. Classic patterns like plaid and houndstooth give any outfit a touch of preppy sophistication, and flirty florals and polka dots take classic solid back from simple to stunning.

Colored Tights

There are several ways you can go with colored tights! You can take a monochrome approach to add extra polish to an outfit. For example, a red dress with red tights and heels makes a bold statement–especially for the holidays. Or you can play with contrast, like adding a pop of color to a neutral outfit with vibrant tights.

Lace Tights

Lace tights are an effortless way to add a sweet, feminine touch to your outfit. If you’re a fan of the coquette look, these are definitely a wardrobe staple for you! But they’re also a great way to add extra dimension to an outfit. Pairing a solid dress with the texture of lace tights is a super cute contrast that lets you play up the sweetness of your ensemble.

Shorts with Tights

Wearing tights under your shorts is a fun, retro Y2K look that lets you wear shorts even when the weather cools down! Try tights with short overalls for a cute cottagecore vibe, or denim shorts for a fun, sporty look. 

Rhinestone Tights
