One of my all time favorites, Falke, has just introduced one of their most opaque tights yet. The Falke Pure Matt 100D Tights are perfect for the fast-approaching winter weather. They are, as you've probably guessed by now, 100 denier, so they are built to keep your legs warm and allow you to continue to wear skirts and boots throughout the season.
They come in a huge variety of colors allowing a match for virtually and clothing combinations. They're also advertised to be extremely soft (as Falke always is) so they're certain to be extra comfortable during the season when you need it most.
They come in seven different colors. They are available in S/M and M/L. They have a matte finished, sheer panty, reinforced toe, and cotton gusset. They cost £17.00 (about $28).
Another of my current favorites is the Levante Sheer Lines Tights. They are sheer black tights that are dressed up with darker lines running down the length of the legs throughout. I think these have a very sexy look and can work with a variety of looks, either dressy or more casual. I think they'd look great with a pair of heels, rather than boots, since the stripes help elongate the look of the leg.
These tights are made in Italy with luxury yarn. Judging by the several other pairs of Levante tights that I own, these are a fabulous value for the money.
These tights are a blend of 85% polyamide, 13% elastane, and 2% cotton. They are significantly more sheer than the Falke tights, with a denier count of 15. These are available in sizes medium, tall, and extra tall, all in black only. These tights cost £9.95 (about $16), and, as I said above, that is an excellent value.
Another option, that is excellent for this time of year is the Pamela Mann Opaque Open Holes Tights. With a more opaque finish and much larger holes, this is an excellent alternative to fishnets. These could be worn with either boots or heels, or perhaps even over another pair of colored tights, to create an even more unique look.
This really is a look that can certainly catch the eye of onlookers. I think this would be a perfect weekend look for going out to concerts or parties.
These tights are 87% nylon and 13% lycra. They are one size only and also available just in black. I think these are very reasonable at £8.95 (about $15). I've seen similar styles from places like Leg Avenue which make a really low quality product. The Pamela Mann option here, for just slightly more money, should prove to be a much better fit and much more durable.
Finally, I just had to throw a pair of tights with some sort of effect into this post because, as you must know by now, I am always a huge fan. The Le Bourget Ofelia Tights, which are made in France, have a stunning lace up boot-like effect, that I am absolutely in love with.
These are sheer black tights that, just below the knee, start out with a woven lace effect. It has a lace like effect up either side of the front of the leg and and the look that the lace is crossing the front of the leg, all the way up. The laces come to a nice bow knot at the top. At the bottom the lace effect continues around the top of the foot.
These tights have quite a bit of gorgeous detail. I've seen a similar type done with Wolford, but these from Le Bourget go into quite a bit more detail. These tights would be great for any occasion that called for a unique look and a bit of fun detail.
These tights are 85% nylon, 10% lycra, and 5% polypropylene. The denier varies as they are both sheer and opaque. They come in four different sizes allowing them to fit anyone from five feet to six foot one comfortably. These tights cost £19.95 (about $33).
