Will snag tights make me look like a bopo blogger?

[Therollockingrogue]

Well will they? I like snag tights. But do they just scream bopo instagrammer?
Is it a slippery slope to irregular choice shoes and dresses with kittens on?

I'm an infant school teacher so pretty much teach art at gnome school 😂 I like colourful tights.

OMG you can get Irregular Choice with cats on

Why does it matter what other people may think of you? I'm guessing you're no longer at secondary school, OP, so who is going to give a shit about what tights you are wearing?

I LOVE my Snag tight. Best fitting ones ever. Though I'm dead boring I only have Builders Tea coloured ones.

You're sneering at people over their choice of tights for goodness sake. It's making yourself feel superior at other people's expense. People are encouraged to express themselves through their clothes, but when they do they get the mick taken out of them for doing so! It is utterly ridiculous. I clicked on this thread because I am interested in trying snag tights, I wasn't expecting to see grown women laughing about people who they deem to be less stylish than them.

I have numerous bits of clothing with cats on. Quite a few from Joe browns[/quote]
Thankyou!

Snag tights are always a bit baggy on me. So I probably don’t look like a bopo instagrammer.

It’s a shame because I love a ridiculously coloured pair of tights. I’ve been wearing silly tights for years.

I don’t even care if people think I’m a quirky try hard.

I’d definitely wear a dress with cats on too.

Not irregular choice shoes though. But mostly because I find them uncomfortable.

cat tights?

Link for cat tights please. For my gnome school teaching 😁

They aren’t made of real cats 😬

OK no thanks 😳😂

I have to struggle against coloured tights because I’m overly influenced by the memory of a genuinely cool female physics teacher I had in the 1980s who used to wear coloured opaque tights with pared down monochrome dresses and always looked very chic (she went on to be a highflying headmistress).

So in my mind they’re cool, but when I look in the mirror I’m off to gnome school. Or, to quote another tweet on that thread “I’ve gone full pottery teacher”

Teen DD is a devotee of the kitten dress and Irregular Choice look so I am very familiar with the shops, but it’s all dinosaur and pumpkin prints at the moment.

@Chipsahoy your boots are GORGEOUS!

I said I was going to order some and I'm happy to say that I did and they are great! I was between sizes so I sized up, and could possibly have got away with sizing down, but I'm still very happy with the comfort and most of all the fact that they don't fall down! (I recently had to walk a 10km round trip in tights that kept falling down and I have no intention of going through that experience again!)

Also love snag tights here. In fact I've just had a delivery this week of 2 pairs of the merino wool ones and they're lovely!

This thread has it all: merits of different tights colours, cats, gnome school references finished off with Irregular Choice shoe debate(s) & pictures

@tofuschnitzel welcome to MN!

I love mine. I have black, grey and maroon and just wear them with clarks brogues. I also bought the chub rub shorts for this summer which are great.

I'm giving thought to a stripy pair for this winter. Now I'm working from home all the time, I don't need to worry about the corporate wardrobe.

I love their tights and won't wear any others now. I've mostly stuck with black, but do have a dark green pair and an orange pair.

Ummm my cat print shirt is my favourite, and I’ve been wearing coloured tights for donkeys years because bright legs make me happier. Definitely not a art teacher at gnome school though, about as sober and sensible as you can imagine!
Had to google bo-po and that’s a bit nasty / Sneery tbh.

I love them but they do come up big. I ordered purple ones in a 12-14, which are very roomy. I'm waiting for size 16-18 suspended tights to arrive which I hope I can send back.

Great tights . The coloured ones are yucky though!
