Holiday Party?

Tuesday, November 17, 2009

I guess we're approaching that time of year. Soon we'll be heading out to events that call for a certain level of formal wear but still need a holiday-inspired twist. On way to add a little holiday shine to a little-black-dress event is with the right pair of tights.

The Jonathan Aston Nite Lite Tights could work perfectly. They're your typical Jonathan Aston sheer black tights, but they have a strong shimmer to them. Not just your every day shimmer, these is done in a golden tone. The golden sparkle jumps off these tights and creates a starry night sky look on your legs. It's quite a strong shimmer, so don't try these unless you really want that holiday sparkle.

The tights are quite comfortable, but not the softest I've ever tried. The shiny material with the extra sheerness makes them a tiny bit rougher to the touch, but nothing even approaching uncomfortable. As always, with Jonathan Aston, they're quite durable and a great value for the money.

These tights are 68% polyamide and 32% lurex. They're available in 3 different color combinations: gold on black, silver on black, and gold on chocolate. I tried the gold on black and these certainly have a serious shine to them. They're also available in 3 different sizes. They're super sheer at 10 denier, save for a boxer brief and a reinforced toe. These tights cost £8.00 (about $13USD). Not bad for an early holiday present to yourself.
