Ive seen a few kids and toddlers wearing shorts with a pair of tights I think it looks ok but part of me think it looks really naff what do others think.

Funky tights look even better!

Cute on kids - my DDs (8 and 10) really love this look and it suite their enviably slim legs. Me, I wouldn't go there.

Thats what every teenage girl wears around here, black or patterned tights, short denim shorts. And stupid hair.

SecretNutellaFix · 19/03/2011 21:12

cute on kids and teenagers, naff on an adult woman.

supersewer · 19/03/2011 21:13

MY DD dresses herself, they don't match or even complement but still cute!!!

V cute on kids.
Possibly Lolita-like on teenagers.
OK on adults on a night out with flattish shoes.

mamalovesmojitos · 19/03/2011 21:19

Cute

kay1975 · 19/03/2011 21:20

I'm 35 and wear shorts with tights for work....am I naff???

DitaVonCheese · 19/03/2011 21:20

I love the way it looks on other people's kids so have tights + shorts but somehow never ever put DD in them. Perhaps I will leave them out tomorrow as I am out all day and DH will be dressing her, then I can blame him if it goes wrong Grin

TheSleepFairy · 19/03/2011 21:21
