I always thought not but I’ve seen someone on Insta looking good in black plaques and gold sandals which would be perfect for my Xmas night out.

Depends how fashion forward you want to seem, I think. Personally it’s a no for me!

Yeah I think it can look good if it’s fishnets or coloured tights but if it’s your regular tights then it can look really bad.

Sorry that should say opaques!

Yes I was thinking ‘nice’ tights not everyday ones. I don’t actually wear either very often but my legs don’t stand being got out in December 😳

Opaque tights or fishnets and deliberately contrasting colours work well.

This "eugh tights" thing is another only on MN trope.

Here's a 2023 take on it

I wish I had the legs of some of the people in that article!
