One
of the hottest haute couture colors this year is grey. Every imaginable shade of grey. Greys that vary from light and silvery to
pewter; from a charcoal sooty grey to a deep dark rich toned grey. Any and all shades of grey are in. Patterned grey, solid grey, embroidered grey,
variegated stripes in shades of grey – have I missed anything? Our favorites - Zazu and Diana
630.
Grey
is the perfect color to help eliminate the gloom and doom of our dark mornings
and dark afternoons in the winter months and still be oh-so-right for any look. I love my black tights and leggings as much
as the next person – maybe more when I tally up how many I own – but I do
admittedly get tired to death of black.
It
really is pretty basic – grey works with virtually as many color choices as black. Grey is stunning with navy; to die for with
cranberry; ideal for all shades of red and plum; grey softens all shades of
black, and is the perfect match for winter whites. Just about the only color grey doesn’t work
well with are the various shades of brown; and then, let’s be honest, our
beloved black doesn’t always work with brown either!
The
many shades of grey are all flattering to your legs and figure. With the huge plus that grey tights eliminate
the hard edgy look of black tights; yet retain all the panache and chicness
that black tights connote.
Grey
is softer – more feminine yet completely professional and business-like.
Two
of our most favorite Must-Have Grey Tights are by Marilyn.
Zazu is a gorgeous mélange of grey and
black and extremely flattering as the ultra-thin stripes run straight up
vertically from top to waist creating the illusion of more height and length –
a perfect complement to winters bulkier clothing. These tights are perfect for
the chillier weather as they are a cozy blend of cotton, acrylic and nylon plus
they’re guaranteed to keep their shape and look fabulous.
Diana 630 is designed in a stunning shade of
matte opaque true grey with thin vertical stripes from toe to waist that
visually increase leg length. With a
density of 60, and made of Lycra and nylon, these tights are perfect for any
outfit from office to play.
All
you need to remember is grey is HOT this year … so match, blend and play with
all our gorgeous grey tights and leggings and find your favorite and unique
look.
