Tights for peep toe wedge shoes

14 replies

Birdy65 · 08/06/2018 21:06

I’m going to a wedding and would like to wear natural colour tights with my outfit, however my shoes have a peep toe. Would this look ok? I know that there are now seem free tights.
Any recommendations?

You can get tights that don’t cover the toes. I think they normally have a bit between the Big and second toes to hold it on. Have a google.

M&S sell the fine denier natural coloured tights with the toes out.

You can get them at primark without the toe part

The toeless tights are not comfortable though

I tried the peep toe tights - hideously uncomfortable. I only wore them because I suspected my shoes were going to rub. They didn't but the tights did their utmost to guillotine my toes off.

I have just seen them on the M&S site, and I can imagine them digging in around my toes.
I think I may try the sheer toe tights with no seam, unless any oth r suggestions?
I want to wear the tights to even out my skin tone, and cover up all the varicose veins etc.
I have tried a leg foundation before, including sally hansen’s but it really doesn’t look natural on me as I’m very pale.

I wish I had my legs from 20 years ago so I wouldn’t have this problem!

Have you tried Mac face & body foundation? It comes in many shades of pale! Or a professional spray tan? The sheer toe tights are still really obvious so failing suitable leg make-up/tan I’d suggest you ditch the peep toe and wear closed toe shoes.

But you’d have to give all that wisdom back Wink Shock

Seamless is probably your best bet.

I’ve used the m&s open toe tights, no issues whatsoever .

wowfudge · 09/06/2018 06:04

Same here - the M&S ones do the job really well. Perfectly comfortable.

zolaaa · 09/06/2018 06:16

I’ve worn them and no issues with comfort, much better than having shoes rub on your heels and they make my legs look so much better than going bare!

flumpybear · 09/06/2018 06:56

I’m like you so buy maxi dresses Wink

I also used the M&S tights. They are fine and very flattering compared to my pale patchy legs.
