Pantyhose & Tights

Polka dots are the easiest pattern to wear and still look like you put some thought into it. A pair of black polka dot tights takes a plain outfit and gives it a little personality, without ever fighting for attention the way a bigger print would. They read as both playful and put-together at once, which is probably why the pattern shows up again and again across such different styles, from casual sneakers-and-plaid looks to full European street style. Here’s a handful of ways people have made them work, so you can see just how far one small pattern can stretch.

Grey opaque tights are the wardrobe workhorse nobody talks about enough. They’re not as attention grabbing as a bold color or as classic as basic black, but that’s exactly what makes them so versatile: a true neutral that pairs with almost anything already in your closet. Whether you gravitate toward a soft dove grey or a deeper charcoal, here’s how to get the most out of this quietly essential shade.
