Break Out of Winter Blues

Let's face it.  
The weather outside is cold and that often means a serious drought in fashion, especially for us college students.
Jeans, fleeces, and those terrible Ugg boots are absolutely everywhere right now.  It's enough to make any self-respecting fashionista want to sob.

Luckily, there is something saving those of us who care from a fashion wasteland of winter snores; tights.

I'll be honest; tights are not as warm or as practical as jeans or sweatpants.  When it comes down to it, though, being a little chilly while walking to class is worth it if it means keeping you from an unfashionable death.

There are many varieties of tights for one to consider, and they are all lovely for many different reasons.  The most obvious tights of choice are the standard solid tights that we've all donned since childhood.  Many websites sell solid colored tights, some with thicker fabric for more warmth, but my personal favorite store for such a purchase is Target.  Affordable and stylish.


Brightly colored solid tights are a great way to stand out.  Bright pink, red, or even some shades of blue can look really awesome with dresses you probably already have in your closet.  Sometimes even summer dresses can make the transition to colder weather with the right pari of tights.

Patterned tights are my personal favorite way to make a statement.  Whether they are patterned fishnets or printed straight onto the material, patterned tights are a cool way to look different.  Patterned tights can also be found at Target, as well as Urban Outfitters and Forever 21.  


Whether you prefer solid tights, patterned ones, or even funky colored fishnets, there are plenty of types for sale to satisfy any fashion craving.  Happy hunting!
