found in BHS hidden behind old lady slippers

They have plum and chocolate as well as dull colours (navy, grey, and black)

I am most happy.

great! will look

KTeePee · 02/10/2007 14:03

M&S had some great ones in their magazine too but haven't got round to checking them in RL (mind you they probably belong on the thread about what I would like to buy but never wear!)

Carmenere · 02/10/2007 14:03

Thanks for that F&Z, I will get some.

MamaG · 02/10/2007 14:05

100 denier - ooh I like

Do they go bobbly? My big denier tights ALWAYS go bobbly

FrannyandZombie · 02/10/2007 15:03

Dunno, just bought them today

they are more like wool, you know? I have been buying black ones from M+S for years but this new development is most exciting I am sure you will agree

Hmm. How long are they? I like M&S because I don't end up with the crotch around my knees.

FrannyandZombie · 02/10/2007 15:20

Dunno. Hmm. One pair was out of stock in Large so I got Medium. Hmmm. Will report back.

I've been looking for woolly tights online today - not much for under £10
I got some claret ones for £5 from John Lewis last week. Also need grey and choc brown.
Am not doing black this year.

FrannyandZombie · 02/10/2007 15:34

teal and claret sound fab

I'm in Germany and I need decent tights for the winter. They do not do decent tights (especially not for short people) here.

WitnessProtectionCod · 02/10/2007 21:39

policywonk · 02/10/2007 21:45

I want some light grey ones like the lady with the bony knees in the Clarks ad. I was going to link but that site is crazy.

WitnessProtectionCod · 03/10/2007 08:56

cupcakes · 03/10/2007 10:33

MrsMills · 03/10/2007 10:47

FrannyandZombie · 03/10/2007 17:46

I knew I liked them, I knew I wanted them, but I couldn't FIND them

I'm going to bhs tomorrow. It's on my list.

Now just need to find a nice baby dress up outfit for dd2. would like something like the ladybird in the ad to your right ->->->->

Carmenere · 03/10/2007 17:53

I couldn't find them today The only 100 denier ones were a light grey which is inadvisable with my cankles.
I got M&S 60 denier ones instead, 3 for £8 in black grey and burgundy. I will report back as good tights are the holy grail of winter as far as I am concerned.
Can you actually beat Fogal?

FrannyandZombie · 03/10/2007 18:02
