The time has come for tights!

Posted on

There is no denying that the cold weather is here. Most of us have already woken up to a frost morning. So, now is the time to plug any holes in your autumn/winter wardrobe, if you have not already done so.

When you go shopping take the time to look at the range of hosiery that is available from somewhere like JD Williams. Updating these little items can make a big difference to how good you look and how comfortable you feel. Read on and I think you will see what I mean.

Flattering tights with built-in support

If you feel a bit self-conscious about your tummy, hips or thighs, try on a pair of tights that have support panels built-in. It really is surprising how much of a difference wearing them can make to your overall look. Despite being made of a very thin material they really do smooth out the bumps and help to flatten out your belly area. (I am personally a big fan of control underwear, its the future!)

Their relatively low price tag makes them a great alternative to more expensive full-blown shapewear. But, you will need to look after them if they are to retain their elasticity. It really is worth washing these by hand and let them dry flat. If you ladder them, do not worry, you can just wear them under a pair of trousers or jeans. They will keep you that bit warmer and still offer you the support that you need.

Practical knee high tight socks

Not all shoes look good with socks. So, it is always handy to have a few pairs of knee high tight socks to wear instead. That way if you want to wear a pair of classic courts with your winter jeans you can. You will be pleasantly surprised by how much warmer your feet will feel while wearing them.

Versatile footsie socks

If you need something a bit thicker and warmer, try footsie socks. These come in a range of different cuts. They are designed not to show when you are wearing shoes open-style shoes.

When shopping for them, remember to wear the right footwear, so you can try them on properly. It is also worth waiting until the afternoon before you go shopping for them. This is because as the day wears on everyone’s feet swell ever so slightly. You do not want to accidentally end up buying a pair of footsie socks that are too thick.

Trainer liners

If you like running, do not forget to update your trainer liners regularly. No matter how well you look after them, they tend to get a bit loose, over time. When that happens they do not stay in place. That can completely ruin your run or workout. This short guide explains how to choose the right ones for you.
