We’ve got you covered! Take advantage of the season’s best in tights and leggings.  Some things to keep in mind when selecting the right pair of tights:

1. Make sure they are not too tight (no pun intended).  Go up a size if you need to.

2. Make sure also, that the tights are flattering to your legs.  Use a solid color to balance.

3. Extra long length tunics can be great if you want to wear wild patterns and colors.

Be sure to check out the tights selection at We Love Colors! We thank our friends at We Love Colors for supplying us with the tights for use in our video. Check out their March We Love Colors Music Contest!

We have had a few inquiries about the trend of printed leggings and how they translate to plus size.  With help from our friends at WeLoveColors.com we have a few great suggestions on how to wear plus size printed leggings.

Actually, graphic eye-catching printed tights can hide problem areas.  Think of the concept of to “distract” rather than to “attract” which is what printed leggings can do when paired with the right ensemble.  Make sure you wear your printed leggings with oversized t-shirts, long belted shirts, or plain-colored simple tunic-style tops such as our Comfy USA Black Tunic.  Choose high heeled shoes to make your legs look  slender or wear leggings with simple flats and take note: this is not the time to wear your statement shoes, let your tights do the talkin’.

Leggings will be everywhere this Fall and why not take a chance with this exciting fashion statement?  You can order your tights online at www.welovecolors.com or by phone at 1-800-770-3177 and soon from Black Cat Plus!
