stocking up...

Well 'tighting up' just doesn't sound as good.

60 denier: black, brown and navy - packs of three from M&S

'keep you warm when it's cold and cool when it's warm',

and M&S 100 denier luxury mini cable grey tights 

Good reasons for wearing 'thick' tights...

1. They are lovely and warm.
2. They look good - although this might be a matter of taste, I think they look great with shoes, boots and wellies.
3. They don't ladder as easily as lower denier tights.
4. I don't need to shave my legs.
5. They come in lots of colours - my selection from M&S probably appears quite restrained but I own purple and stripey tights too.  And although Miss R reliably informed me that navy tights are not acceptable I decided to throw caution to the wind and bought some - I do need some brighter shades though!
6. Tights wash and dry much quicker than socks.
7. Superheroes wear them!
