Nippy Legs

The age old dilemma.

I have lots of lovely summer dresses which I want to wear. In winter I wear dresses with opaque a/leggings/boots.

It's a bit nippy though. It's too cold to go out bare legged at the moment but opaque a don't work with my summer dress collection.

The obvious answer is nude fine denier tights but I've never really got on with them. They aren't as comfy or as practical as winter opaques. Always ladder and always get gusset issues. Opaques last ages but nudes last one wear before getting snagged and bobbled.

But dresses suit me better than wearing nice trousers and a nice top and it's boring to wear jeans all the time.

What do you do?

Nude fishnets. Try Debenhams/ John Lewis.
Cropped to calf leggings for floaty dresses. Next had them last year.
For a work skirt Sally Hansen is your friend.
