What colour tights?

I've got a wedding coming up in December in Cornwall. Likely to be cold and probably damp. I like to wear colour - actually I'm pretty adventurous with colour - and I'm not a minimalist - at all. I'm planning on a berry red midi dress and a little shrug affair that is made of dark green feathers. Boots on my feet - kind of a burnished caramel with rainbow laces. But what colour tights? Dark green? Grey? Any ideas on a bag?

Missed point as an anti colour person....but where are the boots from please?!?

chalkyc2 · 25/11/2023 07:04

They're lovely!!

Perhaps a bit out there, but I really love red and pink together and so I’d suggest perhaps hot (or another tone of) pink tights. Unsure if this would work at all with the green shrug, though.

@chalkyc2 , they're a good price too

I saw them and bought them today! Live in NZ. They were in the end of line part of the nicest shoe shop in town. $100 - which is a little less than 50 quid. Bargainous. I'm liking the idea of hot pink ... or orange.

@shiningcuckoo , they definitely get the thumbs up from me. Good brand and good looks. They look comfortable and very wearable.

I would go with the colour of the feathers in your shrug.

Keeping to my off topic discussion on the boots - I got a pair in the John Lewis sale in navy and they're lovely! Warm lining and comfy and a bit different!
