Help with tights!

[ChickensThinkYouCanGetStuffed]

I have to go to DH's work do. It's a smart dress code, so not uber formal but I can't wear jeans (boo). I am going to buy this dress and these shoes. What colour/style of tights do I need?

Yeah? I was hoping that would be the answer. My legs will look like two sticks of liquorice, but at least my spam legs will be hidden.

Yes. Don't want to flash my humungous gut sucking pants at DH's boss. Black it is

Erm, what denier? I'm clueless and usually slob about in jeans and wellies.

Thank you!

Try TK Maxx for Falke etc. I saw some the other day RRP about twenty quid. TK Maxx price six ninety nine and they had the support/control type.
