One of the things I love about fall (although, full disclosure: it’s my favorite season, so, there’s LOTS of things) is buying new tights! It’s a quick and easy, relatively inexpensive way to transition some of your summer pieces into the season. Some of my favorites…
Hue Textured Diamond Tights are a staple for me. This year, I might pick up the brown pair for something new!

I’m a big fan of Spanx Higher Power and their other high-waist lines (high-waisted shapewear for the win, please and thank you!), and the Assets line at Target is just as good – and lots cheaper! Try the High-Waist Shaping Tights for a nice basic.
At $18, I wouldn't call them "cheap," but they're definitely cheaper than traditional Spanx. Image from Spanx.com.
Finally, a big surprise for me was how much I liked my Fishnet Tights last year. I actually have them in the nude color, and it just adds a bit of texture and interest to what would otherwise be just plain old pantyhose. These will take you all the way to spring, ladies – I highly recommend.

I just bought two pair of FABULOUS Missoni colored/textured tights at Target yesterday. Can’t wait for fall to arrive here in the deep south so I can wear them…maybe in December? 🙂
Ooo, nice! Pictures on WIWW! 🙂
I love the textured diamonds, they almost look like filled in fishnet.
They’re very fun, and a nice break from a typically monochromatic look. 🙂
I love textured tights, cannot wait for the true fall weather to arrive so I can wear them!
I also love, love, love chunkier tights like we wore as kids. Do you know a good brand in adult sizes? I think I have some wolford ones I bought a couple of years ago…
Yes! Actually, Hue makes some: http://hue.com/Legwear/Tights/HUE-Ribbed-Sweater-Tights.aspx
And I’ve also seen some at Target: http://www.target.com/p/Merona-Collection-Women-s-Flat-Knit-Sweater-Tights-Assorted-Colors/-/A-13670404
I’ve had good luck with Target tights. If you’re between sizes, though, I’d definitely size up.
Good luck, let us know what you find! 🙂
I would love to try some fishnets. I’ve never worn them. I think they look amazing in nude.
They rock! Also, pro tip: Google searching for “nude fishnets” was proooooooobably not my smartest move. 😉 ha!
Tights tights tights. I might have to bust some out today even though it’s 70 degrees. I need tights today!
