Errrrm...legs and tights?

[dogdaysareover]

Really hot day today and forecast even hotter over coming week. I have quite a few nice dresses, which are knee length, but the most pasty white, veiny legs. Are flesh coloured tights ok to wear or is this now considered a naff look? I really cannot bear to bare my legs. And if tights are out, well what can I wear? Not a fan of the maxi and I can't seem to get summer trousers right. And thanks to my Irish colouring fake tan just looks terrible on me. A bit dreading summer now.

I'm about the same colour as a sheet of paper and I just embrace it now i doubt many people look at someone and think "oh shit look how AWFUL they look without unnatural patchy tanned legs" likewise I also wouldn't notice if someone was wearing skin coloured tights either, so I'd do what you're most comfortable with

My legs are fine, but my hair sprouts at such an alarming rate I am always self-conscious about them not being smooth. I shaved this evening, and by tomorrow morning they will be stubbly. (I know I don't have to have hair-free legs, I just prefer it. Waxing lasts about two days, so shaving is my best option) My solution is nude fishnets, which I feel just gives me a wee bit of coverage but aren't sweaty.

You'll boil in nude tights. I don't thinj there's anything wrong with white skin

Embrace it. My legs are so white they reflect light, but I wouldn't dream of wearing tights in this weather! As a PP said, most people either won't notice or won't care.

I use johnsons holiday skin. Moisturiser with a gentle bronzing tint. Not fake tan but it takes the edge off my extreme whiteness!!!

I'm noticing more and more white legs and that people aren't feeling the need to always be tanned.
Make sure they are in nice smooth condition - well exfoliated and plenty of moisturiser. Also I find that you need to have the right colour skirt and shoes that kind of work with your particular 'white' legs...
