What tights with brown boots

I have some brown knee high boots that I'm currently wearing bare legged with either a denim dress, cream jumper dress or tan ribbed dress. Bare legs won't cut it for long though and I'm at a loss what tights to wear. The denim dress can maybe be paired with a wine coloured opaque tight (maybe?) but how about the other two dresses? Are those fleece lined sheer/skin look tights any good? If I wore brown opaques I fear brown overload.

If it helps my favourite winter coat is brown checked. I'll upload pics of the dresses, please stand by!

Another vote for black.

I’d go cream cable knit or an opaque block colour.

I only own black tights and wear them with everything so I’m going to say black!

Barely black/darkest brown sheer

I’d wear low denier black.

you can buy fleece lined tights that look low denier if you want warmth
I'm thinking of buying this from Next - Black Fleece Lined Sheer Look Tights 1 Pack

I've wondered about these, they were all over Tiktok last year. Has anyone tried them and are they any good?

Interesting to see so many votes for black. That would certainly be nice and easy. I like the idea of a cable knit cream as well.

I used to wear dark brown, or cream cable knit, when I had brown boots.

PuppyMonkey · 18/09/2025 07:34

Brown opaque or woolly.

Chipsahoy · 18/09/2025 12:12

Brown or cream.

Overtheatlantic · 18/09/2025 12:20

Definitely brown or cream. Black is too harsh.

I had a cheap pair I bought on Amazon last year. They were a bit of an odd shape around the bum and I kept having to readjust the crotch (maybe I'm an odd shape, but I'm by no means big at a size 10) but they were really warm and I'd absolutely get another pair from a known clothing manufacturer this time.
