Are black tights still ok?

My work outfits pre covid often included midi skirts and dresses with black tights and heeled boots. Since then i've switched to longer skirt lengths with bare legs and Doc Martens.

I do miss the tights and heels though, but just don't think it looks right with anything longer than knee length. I'm picturing a black blazer with a contrasting knee length dress, black tights and black boots. Am I on the right lines, stylish people?

How much lower denier? Around 10? I usually wear around 40, and woollen or lined on snowy days.

I think 20 is OK.

Agree that opaques with a midi dress and flat shoes can look all kinds of wrong. For that, I prefer sheer or fishnet.

Opaques and shorter dresses still look good imo.
