Hi, coloured tights make me feel a bit like I am in fancy dress, so I don't wear them often, but today I am wearing this... Does it look as strange as it feels, or would you just walk past me in the street without giving it a second though!?

(yes the angle.is weird.as taken.from above, got no front camera on my phone and cant get to mirror, my leegs are more in proportion irl!)

It doesn't look strange at all. I wouldn't give those tights a second thought! Grin

I love coloured tights but very rarely wear them as I think they make me look a bit like I have muppet legs.

Can't really see your legs. Are you wearing maroon tights? I do sometimes, don't think they are too whacky at all.

Lovely, autumnal colours, Bike.

Yes they're a sort of burgundy colour, thought they were plum when I chose them but sometimes they look different when stretched out don't they. Boots are brown. Have decided I like it, and I am safe to leave the house now Grin

thanks for the opinions Thanks will report back if I get any funny stares haha

I have Cadbury purple and emerald green tights, although I v rarely wear them!

I wore burgundy tights at the weekend, I loved them kept looking at them. I'm now off to buy more colours!!!

Wouldn't look twice - look fine. I have several pairs of burgundy tights I wear in autumn/winter. Often with a navy knit dress and ankle boots.

I wear coloured tights all the time! Love em! Burgundy isn't an outlandish colour for them!

I bought a pair of mustard yellow ones in Primark, loads of other colours too and really nice soft opaque I wore them under a knee length skirt with knee boots so not much showed except when I walked then there was a flash of yellow to match my top and bag. Smile quite liked the coordinated look so may pop of and buy some more colours tomorrow.
